DS3

Resilient by design
There is an ontological shift in environmental thinking that questions the viability of the conservation goals of the sustainability paradigm, and offers the adaptation goals of resilience as a more flexible framework for intervening in increasingly complex and unknown futures. In DS3 we explore the relevance, potential and application of the resilience paradigm for architectural design and adaptation of our urban environments. This year’s site was the city of Kingston-upon-Hull and students used two key approaches to locate and integrate theories of resilience into a people and city focussed scale. The first was the creation of a fictional, yet research derived, resilience scenario. The second was the extensive use of stakeholder mapping and narratives. Characters were created and developed to experience the imagined scenarios, their personal resilience and their use of each student’s final design proposition.
