Delft, May 2014
Cover Vertical Village exhibition, Hamburg. “Huge apartment blocks and anonymous high-rise settlements
are the characteristic features of surging growth in Asian cities. Is there any alternative to this?
Can a new model for development in big cities be imagined? Can we infill these neighbourhoods and
still retain the qualities of a traditional village? Is it possible to develop a “vertical village” to create
a three-dimensional community that will bring diversity, flexibility and communication back into
local neighbourhoods? The exhibition presents an exciting vision of urban concentration from Dutch
architects MVRDV with support from the JUT Foundation for Arts & Architecture and the City of
Taipei.” Picture and text by MVRDV.

Dear Reader,
I would like to invite you to take some time for reading the Urbanism Annual report of 2013 and I hope
it will enrich your perception of our department of urbanism.
In 2013, The Netherlands went through economical tough times, especially in the building sector.
The economic crisis and the effect of it on the building sector had it’s influence on the department
of Urbanism too. From 67.7 fte staff in 2012 we shrunk to 57.3 fte staff in 2013. Furthermore, a bigger
part of our staff members than ever before is externally funded. From tenured staff appointed on
first money stream, we more and more moved to a substantial amount of flexible staff appointed on
projects funded by the EU, NWO, STW and other parties.
At the same time, we managed to keep the scientific output at the same level as last year. We con-
tinued the quality in publications and in research projects. We even increased our part in the Faculty
education programme. The Urbanism track is our core business, but we are proud of the growth in
our Landscape Architecture track and of our involvement of the BSc. program of our Faculty. We
furthermore expanded by getting involved in the MSc. programme Geomatics.
This year, more than before, made us aware of the changing context of our department. The extra
time invested in finding funding for interesting projects and in more and better education makes us
more resilient. On the one hand we strengthen our core expertise, as Urbanism is a unique field in
the world of design, planning and in science. On the other hand, the developments we undertake will
connect us to new fields, like Smart Urbanism, Delta Design and Complexity theory.
Again, I hope the annual report of 2013 will give you new insights in what the Urbanism department’s
strength is, and what our staff members can do; for you and with you.

The Department of Urbanism in the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment at Delft
University of Technology was established in 1948 and since then has made major contributions to the
theory and practice of urbanism and urbanisation, and the design and planning of policy interven-
tions through research publications and education. The department draws on the multidisciplinary
expertise of the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment which also covers real estate and
housing, architectural (green) engineering and geomatics.
The department is committed to an international perspective. Staff and PhD candidates from more
than 20 countries in Europe, Asia, Latin America and Africa share expertise and knowledge with
partners around the world. Our strong networks at the European and global levels are an important
means for developing joint research projects and disseminating knowledge. Staff and students have
strong relationships with developing regions around the world through active research, particularly
in Asia and Latin America.
The department makes good use of the strong tradition of urbanism in the urbanised delta of the
Netherlands to provide theoretical starting points for understanding urbanisation processes and
means of intervention, although always with a sensitivity to the special conditions in other countries,
especially developing regions. The department has a special interest in international comparison of
urban development and planning, the methodology of cross-national and cross-cultural working, and
potential and limitations of policy transfer.
The multidisciplinary approach in Dutch urbanism integrates knowledge from urban design and
landscape professions, technical engineering and social science and policy approaches in spatial
planning and urban studies. This unusual combination of design, engineering and policy approaches
provides the multidisciplinary expertise needed to understand and address the great challenges of
sustainable development; the effects and risks for urbanisation associated with climate change; the
complex processes of urban growth
and mechanisms for territorial
governance; mobility and connec-
tivity in metropolitan regions; the
transformation of existing urban
areas and upgrading of informal
settlement; the revitalisation and
reconstruction of neighbourhoods,
and the making of high quality
public space.

The Bachelor’s degree programme in Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences is a broad study
programme, in which all the disciplines of the faculty of Architecture are represented.
Starting September 2013, the new Bachelor curriculum was introduced. A great effort was made to
increase the quality, study practicability and efficiency in order to counter the fragmentation of and
overlap between courses, to reduce the number of learning paths from fifteen to six and to increase
cohesion and cooperation.

The department of Urbanism is involved in four minors:
- Green Blue City proof neighbourhoods
- Sensing the City
- Landscape Architecture
- Identity and Intervention
The MSc.-programme in Urbanism is a two year full-time Master’s programme. The track aims to
provide the prospective urban planner/designer with skills to propose new solutions for an effective,
efficient, and aesthetically satisfactory organisation and management of the urban environment.
Students are particularly challenged to consider what is, and what is not possible in urban areas,
both in the technical realm and in the spatial realm. Students also study how social change process-
es influence design and how design can create preconditions for transformations in use to occur. In
2013, 179 students studied Urbanism. 73 students graduated.
Saba Golcher, Master’s student from the Complex Cities Studio, won the Sustainable Urban Areas
Prize for best Master graduate.

REVITALIZING THE HEART OF ROTTERDAMINCREASING INNER CITY VITALITY IN A POST-WAR RECONSTRUCTED CITY
MASTER THESISARD JAN WOLTERS
SUMMARY
With an expected growing city population, growing number of households and an optimal international position as a port- and services city, Rotterdam has many potentials to be lively and economically viable. However, the inner city image and quality are lagging behind to benefit optimally from this perspective. The city center determines the attractivity of the city towards the public, and is therefore of great importance for the economic strength of the city.The center of Rotterdam is relatively sparsely populated. Main streets are dominated by wide traffic streets which separate parts of the city center. On top of that, very central streets in Rotterdam are monofunctional places which lack the diversity of use to stay active during the whole day. Governmental interventions to increase liveliness in the center are in process, but since the economic crisis struck, it has become very difficult to drastically increase the number of mixed-use buildings and add residential housing to increase activity in the streets.
This is why another focus is necessary to increase liveliness and activity in the city center. The opportunity for intervention lies in the lack of attractivity of the public space. Many places of potential in the city center lack the quality and human scale that is necessary to invite people to stay and create the dynamics of people interacting with each other. Attractive public space can increase the amount of visitiors and extend the period of residing in the city, which is good for commercial and cultural facilities. Eventually, good quality and image of the city center is vital for attracting new people and inhabitants, businesses and investors. If nothing is done, Rotterdam might lose the competition between Amsterdam and Utrecht, and stay behind in socio-economic perspective.
This thesis is about the spatial conditions for a more vital and attractive city for people to stay, live and work in. The goal eventually is for Rotterdam to be better able to attract new people and businesses and become more economically viable.
The design intervention implements spatial conditions to create an attractive inner city public space in the main boulevard of Rotterdam, the Coolsingel. The goal was to show that with a different traffic strategy for the city center, a large part of the Coolsingel street can be transformed into an attractive and more vibrant urban space, which can improve the image of the center of Rotterdam.

European
Master in
Urbanism
(EMU)
The European post-master in Urbanism (EMU) is an advanced master degree that engages with the
complexities of the design and planning of cities and landscapes, in a jointly run programme by TU
Delft, KU Leuven, UPC Barcelona and Università IUAV di Venezia. All four universities adhere to the
specifically European tradition that views urbanism as a collection of socially responsible disciplines,
which aim to improve the living conditions of all citizens.
The MSc.-programme in Landscape Architecture is a two year full-time Master’s programme. It cov-
ers all aspects of the discipline – from planning to design practice, from theoretical considerations
to practical exercises, and from research to policy-making – from the perspective of architecture and
design, and in the context of the urban realm. It examines crucial topics such as lowland landscapes
and the urban realm through a scientific lens, and is linked to the parallel research programme in Ur-
ban Landscape Architecture through methods, projects and researchers. Real-life projects develop-
ing core design skills are the centrepiece of the program. In addition to design skills, students learn
about plants and vegetation types, soils, hydrology, ecology and sociology. In 2013, 23 new students
started the MSc.-programme in Landscape Architecture. 15 of them were international students. 5
students graduated in 2013.

This master thesis research focused on en-
ergy issues: specific on people awareness
for energy consumption. A method quite
broad and applicable to any western city
was developed to identify suitable public
spaces were one could produce energy in
such a way that the design of it strengthen
the identity of the place. In the city of Rot-
terdam different locations were pointed
out: as an example the Willemsplein was
transformed into an exciting wind energy
park on the Maas.

EMU graduate 2013
Supervisors: Daan Zandbelt, Bernardo Secchi
Bucharest, as many other cities, is a divided city.
This urban divide is described in Claudiu’s thesis
as the result of a dense historic stratification of
unfinished urban projects, in terms of current socio-
economic processes, and as related to the conflict
between the structure of the city and its wider envi-
ronment. Rather than targeting the less developed
half of the city, the proposed strategy addresses the
area of interaction between the two sides: the valley.
Born from the former floodplain of river Dâmbovita,
today canalized and crossing Bucharest’s very
centre, the valley is structurally defined on the West-
East direction, while the three case studies show
the details of the intervention meant to improve the
integration between North and South. The work is
concluded with a reflection on the possible wider
effects of the intervention and initiates a debate on
how the structure of the city might change into a
configuration that has a more synergistic relation
with the territory.
The valley as a separate spatial entity connecting the
spaces resulted from theunfinished projects of the city.

Contributions
to other
programmes
The EMU programme is seen as incubator for design driven research with students building up a skill
set in research and design through studios, intensive workshops and supplementary courses. Partici-
pants come from a wide range of countries and are asked to reflect on and challenge how planning
and urban design operates in the Netherlands, the European Union and their home countries. 20
students participated in the EMU programme in 2013, of which 6 graduated.
Staff contribute to teaching across the faculty, in other university faculties and are often invited to
give lectures in other institutions around the world. A selection:
- Diego Sepulveda gave visiting lectures at the School for Planning and Architecture, Delhi, India,
and the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
- Akkie van Nes gave a workshop at the Ninth International Space Syntax Symposium.
- Vincent Nadin taught a module on spatial planning in Europe at South China University, and gave
visiting lectures at the South China Normal University, Guangzhou, Tsinghua University, Beijing and

International
position and
reputation
The Urbanism research programmes’s core task is to mobilse its multidisciplinary knowledge, skills
and reputation towards the creation of more sustainable living environments. The priority is to con-
tribute solutions to the urgent challenges of urbanisation in the context of climate change.
The urban environment is a subject of intense public concern. The impact of rapid change in the
physical form and the distribution of urban development on the quality of the environment, economic
competiveness, social cohesion and cultural identity is widely debated. The patterns and effects of
urban change, their wider impacts on society, and the appropriate means of intervention are all of
increasing complexity and uncertainty. There is great demand for basic research to inform under-
standing of urbanisation processes and their effects and for applied research to assist policy makers
and professionals.
The Urbanism group applies itself to these questions. Its core task is to use its multidisciplinary
knowledge, skills and reputation in research on creating more sustainable living environments. The
priority is to contribute solutions to the urgent challenges of urbanisation in the context of eco-
nomic, social and environmental change. We want to achieve excellence in research, international
recognition for the quality and value of our scientific work, and raise the standing of urbanism as an
academic research discipline in science and society.
On 7 November 2013 the Urbanism research programme and a draft self-evaluation of progress from
2010 to 2012 were discussed with an external panel of leading academics in the discipline: Profes-
sor Taner Oc, The Bartlett, University College London; Professor Dr.-Ing. Martin Prominski, Leibniz
University, Hannover; and Professor Dipl.-Ing. Sophie Wolfrum, Munich University of Technology. The
Panel’s response was positive, confirming that considerable progress has been made on addressing
points raised in the 2010 review whilst maintaining the strengths.
The Urbanism Programme has a deep involvement with international networks arising from a long
history of successful collaboration particularly in Europe, Asia and Latin America, and now extend-
ing to North America. It has been facilitated by a truly international group of staff, PhD candidates,
post-master and master’s students, funding from both Dutch and EU sources, and a growing body of
international alumni.
Evidence of the high esteem of the Urbanism programme includes the many invitations for staff (at
all levels) to make keynote contributions to international conferences; staff positions in advisory
roles for foreign agencies and governments; and the great demand for PhD positions from inter-
national students. The Urbanism Programme is a ‘preferred partner’ for a number of high ranking
international research departments, for example, there is extensive collaboration with Nordregio, the
Nordic Centre for Spatial Research.
Recognition of the value of Urbanism research is demonstrated by the sponsorship of two Chairs.
The Chair of Politics and Design is sponsored by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment; and
the Van Eesteren Chair is sponsored by the Van Eesteren-Fluck and Van Lohuizen- (EFL) Foundation
and the Delta Programme IJsselmeergebied.

Collaboration
with
stakeholders
International
collaboration
Apart from the cooperation with stakeholders through the externally funded chairs, Ubanism col-
laborates with stakeholders primarily through the participation of users in funded research projects.
For example, the Urbanism Programme collaborates with the Provinces of South and North Holland
and Zeeland on a number of projects, with several muncipalities of for instance Rotterdam and Den
Haag, and with Dutch partners as TNO, Deltares and Schiphol. In several research projects, coopera-
tion with other European and Northamerican muncipalities takes place.
Urbanism participates in very many consortia. Almost all research projects involve joint working with
other institutions, and we are developing deeper, more strategic relations with key partners both in
the Netherlands and abroad.
Examples of international collaboration include:
- the joint Centre for Urban Systems and Environment with South China University of Technology,
Guangzhou is funded by both universities (Marcin Dabrowski, Jinghuan He, Qu Lei, Vincent Nadin,
Dominic Stead, Yutin Tai, Machiel van Dorst);
- the International Forum on Urbanism (IFOU), which was established by Rosemann (former profes-
sor) and continues to provide opportunities for Urbanism staff and PhD candidates to collaborate
with key partners in Asia (Henco Bekkering, Luisa Calabrese);
- the Urban Knowledge Network Asia, funded by the EU IRSES programme, that spans China, India,
Europe and the US and enables extensive research exchanges;
- the New York Rebuild-by-Design initiative promotes resilience Post-Sandy through innovative
planning & design (Han Meyer, Peter van Veelen & Anne Loes Nillesen);

Joint Research Centre on Urban Systems and Environment (USE)
with South China University of Technology
This is a university-wide initiative in which the Department of Urbanism plays a central role. The Centre is important to the international strate-
gies of both universities as a platform for academic exchange, joint research studies, dual education programs, and application for project
funding. The universities are integrating their academic and research resources to build mutual advantage, in the fields of sustainable spatial
planning and intelligent infrastructure and architecture. It is applying ideas in collaborative research and particularly on aspects of urbanisation
of the Pearl River Delta. USE is an academic outpost of the Netherlands in China and the other way around, and functions as a contact point in a
network of companies, governments and knowledge institutions.
The faculties of Architecture and the Built Environment, Civil Engineering and Technology Policy and Management contribute to the centre.
During 2013 there were two major workshops with more then 30 staff directly involved in joint activiteis from TU Delft. The USE Centre recruited
dual PhD candidates and was successful in an EU funding bid for a collaborative staff and PhD exchange.
Professor Vincent Nadin is research director of USE and
spent several weeks at South China University of Technol-
ogy during 2013 in order to develop joint activities and to
deliver teaching on spatial planning in Europe.
- the EU Cost Action MOVE which seeks to improve methods for extracting and using data about
moving objects (Stefan van der Spek);
- the Pedestrians’ Quality Needs Project (PQN) on people’s needs for safe and agreeable mobility in
public space (Stefan van der Spek).
Examples of strong collaboration in the Netherlands include:
- the alliance with Wageningen University through it’s Centre for Geo-information on the applica-
tion of GIS in visual landscape research (Nijhuis); and its Landscape Architecture Group on design-
related research methodology;
- contributions to the university level alliance with Leiden University and Erasmus University, Rot-
terdam, for example in consort with the Leiden Institute of Environmental Sciences and Social Psy-
chology on urban biodiversity; and the new Centre for Global Heritage and Development, established
in 2013.
The Urbanism Programme is also deeply engaged with partners within TU Delft, particularly in the
section RMIT on history and design in the built environment and the Faculties of Technology, Policy
and Management, Civil Engineering and Industrial Design.

Projects
Green Blue Cities
The three year international research project “Green/Blue Infrastructure for Sustainable, Attractive
Cities” is a JPI Urban Europe project. Its main focus is that all forms of water are opportunities and
need to be utilised appropriately, which can help to both alleviate and adapt to floods and droughts
at the same time, as well as support nicer places to live, ecosystems and biodiversity in the ‘water
sensitive’ city. The key to this is managing water above ground rather than below, and to utilise
green and blue rather than energy and carbon intensive grey infrastructure. The main objective of
this research is to develop knowlvge and tools required to seize the opportunities arising from future
challenges, to manage urban stormwater in a way that facilitates robust, synergistic and multi-
functional green infrastructure that will address today’s and tomorrow’s climate and other changes
in dynamic urban areas. The project work is being conducted in an international Urban Living Lab in
Kiruna, Sweden, combined with one national Urban Living Lab (a so called city-hub) per participat-
ing country, where citizens, practitioners, decision makers, and researchers are brought together to
jointly develop innovative solutions. The Dutch Urban Living Lab in this project will be Zwolle, in con-
tinuation of the recent IJssel-Vechtdelta longterm planning (LTP) cocreation process with all relevant
stakeholders. Besides of the TU Delft (Bk/U/ETD), Swedish, Finnish and Austrian partners cooperate
in this research project.
Balance 4P
Balance 4P aims at delivering a holistic approach that supports sustainable urban renewal through
the redevelopment of contaminated land and underused sites (brownfields). In order to reach the
overall aim, the specific project objectives focus on the application and assessment of methods for
design of urban renewal/land redevelopment strategies for brownfields that embrace the case-
specific opportunities and challenges; on the development of a method for sustainability assessment
of alternative land redevelopment strategies to evaluate and compare the ecological, economic and
social impacts of land use change and remedial technologies; and on the development of a practice
for redevelopment of contaminated land in rules and regulations to enable implementations. The dif-
ferent parts will be integrated into a decision process framework to support urban renewal through
the redevelopment of contaminated land and underused sites. The framework will have a strong
focus on integrating urban planning and soil issues, such as remediation decisions and will facilitate
proper accounting for the soil functions currently under-considered in land management.
Governance of Territorial Development
This three year research project investigates the patterns of governance of polycentric regions
through the prism of climate change policy, posing particulary daunting multi-level governance chal-
lenges. It focuses on the ways in which the major urban regions operating in different institutional
settings adress those challenges and tackle climate change through vertical and horizontal coordi-
nation and cooperation, while balancing the trade-off between efficiency and democratic account-
ability. The project involves comparative EU-China research on cohesion policy and regional planning
with a focus in China on the Pearl River Delta. This is assisted by South China University of Technol-
ogy and Hong Kong Univesity.

Computer Aided Support for Communities and City Systems
towards resilient and prosperous cities - Climate KIC
Considering that urban form influences and is influenced by the capacity of the urban environment
to assimilate internal and external change, the research commences with the hypothesis that urban
form can be used to assess and build urban resilience. Based on this hypothesis, the study aims to
develop: an assessment framework for urban environments, in which a cross-scalar description of
urban form – with an emphasis on territorial urbanization patterns – describes how parts and the
whole contribute to urban resilience; a resilience assessment tool meant to identify the thresholds
of large and small scale events; strategies to improve urban resilience through principles of spa-
tial design interventions. The study employs a mixed method approach, structured in two parallel
threads: (1) an extensive literature review on resilience and spatial morphology, and (2) a case study
research of Amsterdam and Bucharest, which will later be validated by a third validating case. These
two threads offer a reliable framework for the correlational research targeting urban resilience and
urban form.
Equalization in Climate proof Area Management - Climate KIC
The goal of the project is to support decision-making for climate proof area development by sys-
tematically analysing the phenomenon of equalization and, based upon the results of it, formulating
recommendations for improvement. A new tool for equalization (for both mitigation and adaptation
measurements) is aimed to be the result of the project.

approach to achieve the sustainable, energy–efficient, smart city. By coordinating strategies and
combining best practices, PLEEC will develop a general model for energy efficiency and sustainable
city planning. It will connect scientific excellence and innovative enterprises in the energy sector
with ambitious and well-organized cities, the project aims to reduce energy use in Europe in the near
future and will therefore be an important tool contributing to the EU’s 20-20-20 targets. The main
objectives of the project are to assess the energy-saving solutions and potentials to be integrated
in a comprehensive city planning; to demonstrate how integrative planning is more efficient than
separate measures; tyo develop a synergized model for energy efficiency planning by considering the
energy efficiency potential of key aspects; and to create action plans for smart cities.

National research agenda on Heritage and Space
Professor Eric Luiten and his colleagues Belvedere professors of the University of Wageningen and
Amsterdam, working together for the last year in the Network Heritage, presented the National
research agenda on Heritage and Space ‘Karakterschetsen, Nationale onderzoeksagenda Erfgoed
en Ruimte’ , commissioned by the State Heritage Service (Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel erfgoed)
in 2013. In this document future perspectives on Heritage in the Netherlands were presented. And
positive note; the history and heritage vector, the research programme within the urbanism research
programme was mentioned. Next to this, the three professors and others presented a full coloured
essay on the introduction on the Belvedere programme, more than ten years ago and future perspec-
tives on heritage in the Netherlands under the title ’Oude Sporen in een nieuwe eeuw, de uitdaging
na Belvedere’.

PhD defence Cornelia Redeker ‘Waterfront development in Rhine Cities’
Redeker’s study outlines how, during the 19th and 20th centuries, urbanisation advanced nearer and
nearer the river. Wide, meandering river beds changed into urbanised embankments along a chan-
nelled river. As a result, the river was increasingly seen as a controllable system rather than a dy-
namic one. She examined four waterfront developments, including two in the Netherlands: Nijmegen
Lent (dike relocation, construction of subsidiary channel and urban expansion) and Dordrecht Stad-
swerven (urban development outside the dikes). The two German projects are Karlsruhe Rappenwört
(‘controlled’ retention polder) and Mainz Zollhafen (port conversion with adaptive housing). She also
examined the spatial planning options for urban development that would not have an adverse impact
on shipping but which would contribute to the (partial) restoration of the dynamic river landscape. In
addition, she charted the spatial dependences affecting a potential flood area. Because whether a
city chooses to adopt an adaptive strategy or to reduce the flood risk, the urban design and architec-
ture will always be affected.
‘Polders of Felt’, exhibition in the Nieuwland Erfgoed Museum Lelystad, by Inge Bobbink and Cora
Jongsma
In February 2013, MSc students of Landscape Architecture were taken to the Nieuwland Museum in
Leystad for a three day workshop, led by artist Cora Jongsma. Jongsma, who has worked extensively
with felt, introduced students to the fascinating similarities between two seemingly incongruent oc-
currences: the creation of felt from wool and the creation of polders.
Polders are created when water is pumped out of land. Similarly, to create felt, wet wool is flattened
with a rolling pin. The constant rolling shrinks the fabric to create a smooth surface. Going through
the process of making this fabric themselves gave students an insight into the process of how pol-
ders were created and how the land subsided due to the fact of drainage.
During the course of the workshop students were first taught how to make felt and then about
mixing colours, creating layers and texturing. On the final day they were asked to recreate a part of
‘their’ polder using the felt and colours made by them. Each student worked parallel to the workshop
on a design for ‘a recrational waterlandscape’ in a polder. The work has been exhibited at the Nieuw-
land Museum.
Inaugural speech Arjan van Timmeren ‘ReciproCities: a dynamic balance’
In his inaugural address, Arjan van Timmeren discussed the dynamic relationships that are key to
constantly changing urban areas. Reciprocity concerns corresponding concepts such as technology
and people, but also for example energy and water or a city and its surrounding countryside. System
designs have to be geared towards change and towards finding a dynamic balance between those
reciprocities.
Kustdebat (Coastal Debate)
The research project ‘Atelier Kustkwaliteit’ (Studio Coastal Quality) organized the ‘Weeks of the
Coast’ with a series of final events to discuss the final results of the research in May and June 2013.
Each event was a combination of an exhibition of a large model of the Dutch coast, showing the
chances for new developments for coastal defense and spatial development, and a public debate. At
May 21 this event took place in the Orange Room of the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environ-
ment. The debate was focused on the necessity to develop a new collaboration between civil engi-
neering and urban design, in order to be able to develop new approaches concerning coastal defense

in relation with spatial development. This new collaboration has consequences for the educational
program of the MSc Urbanism and the MSc Hydraulic Engineering of the Faculty of Civil Engineer-
ing. Participants of the debate were members of the Atelier Kustkwaliteit, students and teachers of
the Delta Interventions graduation studio, politicians and civil servants of several coastal cities and
provinces, and civil servants of the Dutch Delta Program.
PhD Defence Olgu Caliskan ‘Pattern Formation in Urbanism: a Critical Reflection on Urban Mor-
phology, Planning and Design’
Caliskan’s PhD research tends to develop a comprehensive outlook on urban pattern formation from
historical, conceptual, practical and futuristic points of view. For that purpose, the research puts a
critical reflection on the main components of urbanism, the complementary acts of understanding
(morphology), control (planning) and creation (design) on the basis of urban pattern formation. The
six-year research of the author involves an extensive theoretical review and the analysis of the actual
planning and design practice in the three countries, the Netherlands, Turkey and the UK.
In the light of the findings, the author addressed a number of problematic issues for a better integra-
tion of urban morphology, planning and design (i.e. developing a firm terminology on form, structure
and pattern; the principles of a smart (design) control system reconciling code and plan for coherent
urban forms; an updated understanding on design thinking in urbanism; and an appropriate interpre-
tation of computational design in the theoretical and practical context of urbanism.

Symposium ‘De kern van de stedenbouw’
‘De kern van de stedebouw’ (The essence of Urbanism) was the title of the farewell-symposium
of John Westrik and Willem Hermans. As well John Westrik as Willem Hermans were employed as
staff members of the chairs of Urban Design (Hermans) and Urban Compositions (Westrik) for more
than 30 years. They supervised more than 200 MSc graduation projects. For the symposium, they
had invited ten of their students, currently working in practice, to explain their vision on the future of
urbanism in the Netherlands.
Finally, Westrik and Hermans gave an overview of their own work and of their vision on the future of
urbanism. The event was visited by more than 100 persons.

Vertical Village exhibition in Hamburg Museum
On invitation of the City of Taipei Government, the Hamburg Museum and the IBA (Internationale
Bauausstellung) Hamburg, the exhibition ‘Vertical Village’ by T?F and MVRDV was shown in Ham-
burg. The exhibition found wide media coverage in Germany.
PhD Defence Wei-Ju Huang ‘Spatial Planning and High-tech Development. A comparative study
of Eindhoven City-region, the Netherlands and Hsinchu City-region, Taiwan’
High-tech development—which lies at the very heart of the processes of economic growth—has
been recognised by many developed and developing countries as a strategic instrument to enhance
and sustain their competitiveness in the global economic network. Various spatial strategies have
been formulated and implemented to support high-tech development. This has had intentional and
unintentional effects on the economy, society and space.
However, there has been less attention given to the role spatial planning may play in the process of
high-tech development and to the factors that shape the spatial planning approaches to high-tech
development in a particular place. The major objectives of this research are to advance the knowl-
edge of the role of spatial planning in the process of high-tech development, and to establish an
analytical framework that helps reveal the major institutional factors that shape spatial planning
mechanisms for dealing with the spatial issues of high-tech development in different places. This
contributes to the field of high-tech spatial policies transfer and lesson-drawing.

‘The Institute of Place Making’, exhibition about research at Oerol Festival Terschelling, Michiel
Pouderoijen and Denise Piccinini
From 9 to 20 September 2013, the work of twelve master students who have been taking part in the
Expedition programme of Oerol Festival has been shown at the faculty of Architecture.
For the third time students of the master track Landscape Architecture were invited to participate in
the international festival Oerol on the island of Terschelling.
If one was at the Oerol Festival, one might have seen glass tubes and white cabinets. It belonged to
the temporary project: ‘The Institute of Place Making – IOPM’. The project is based on the idea to
find out which places and landscapes people appreciate the most. Tagged test tubes and a website
(www.iopm.nl) were used to communicate with people. About thousand responses came from more
than six thousand visitors of IOPM. The reactions were mapped, categorized and stored in cabinets
in the ‘open air archive’ in the forest of Terschelling. The cabinets were exposed last September at the
Oost Serre in the Faculty together with a booklet made by the students. The build up knowledge will
be used for further investigations.
Start of the Van Eesteren Chair
TU Delft appointed Frits Palmboom as professor on the Van Esteren chair.
In 2010, the Van Eesteren-Fluck & Van Lohuizen (EFL) Foundation updated its multi-year plan. One
of the aspects the foundation included in its revised plan is its wish to contribute to the debate on
spatial developments in the IJsselmeer area. In addition, the Deltaprogramma IJsselmeergebied was
initiated by the government in 2009 to prepare the Netherlands for future operations regarding flood
protection and freshwater supplies. It has become clear that this task is closely linked to the tasks
facing the Netherlands in the field of spatial development. This includes an important challenge in
terms of combining and integrating spatial planning, urbanism and landscape architecture with hy-
draulic engineering and water resource management. Among the areas clearly affected by this chal-
lenge is the IJsselmeer area, for which a separate subsidiary programme has been started as part of
‘The Institute of
Place Making.’

the Delta Program. The Van Eesteren-Fluck & Van Lohuizen (EFL) Foundation, the Deltaprogramma
IJsselmeergebied and TU Delft’s faculty of Architecture have therefore taken the joint initiative to
establish a chair focusing on this issue.
Urbanism Week ‘Designing Lifestyles’.
The 2013 Urbanism Week had a twofold aim. On the one hand, it tries to expose, examine and even
predict the new trends, practices, roles and issues, which will influence the discipline. On the other
hand, Urbanism Week is trying to be a link between students and the professional field. By a four- day
program, new ways of approaching different infrastructure aspects, new practices dealing with the
globalized world, including new urban structures and new urban players were designated. The future
of urbanism has to be found in order to demonstrate the importance of our existence to the society.
Conference on Complexity, Cognition, Urban Planning and Design
CTC (Complexity Theories of Cities) is a domain of research that studies cities from the perspective
of the various theories of complexity. The first Delft International conference (September 2009) evalu-
ated the achievements of CTC and looked forward at potentials and challenges yet to be material-
ized. Among the latter was the insight that in order to better understand and simulate humans’
behavior in cities CTC should make a link to cognitive science views on these issues and to be aware
that planning and design are basic cognitive capabilities of humans. Following this insight the aim of
this 2nd Delft international conference is to create a conversation between people from several disci-
plines that not often talk to each other; namely, between practitioners of CTC, cognitive scientists
of spatial behavior, planning and design; researchers of design thinking, urban planners and urban
designers.
PhD defence Chiu-Yuan Wang ‘Between Flexibility and Reliability. Changing Planning Cultures in
China’
The changing role of urban development is deeply rooted in China´s political, economic and social
domains and is part of its cultural renewal. Reforms are placed in the broader context of globaliza-
tion. Wang compares various historical periods in the country and analyses the changes that have
taken place in cultural context. In this way she examines the conditions for, approaches to, and
results of Chinese spatial planning. According to Wang, these developments are inextricably rooted
in Chinese history and tradition. As such it is an alternative to Western paradigms.
Exhibition Porous City
The Why Factory presented their ongoing research on the design of skyscrapers and the potential
of porosity as a European approach to urban density, entitled ‘Porous City’ at the 10th edition of the
Business of design week in Hong Kong. The results were presented as scale models made of LEGO
bricks, recently exhibited at the 13th Venice Architecture Biennale in March 2013 and the MIPIM
developers fair in Cannes in March 2014 as well.

Amsterdam Institute for Metropolitan Solutions (AMS)
On April 2nd 2013, the City of Amsterdam launched a ‘design contest’ for the
Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions. The aim of the
contest was to solicit well thought out proposals for what such an international
technological institute should be. On September 13th 2013 a jury led by Prof.
Dijkgraaf announced the entry, from TU Delft, Wageningen University and MIT
as the “convincing winner of the AMS design contest”. It proposed a research institute which fosters the creation of urban solutions (in areas
such as water, energy, waste, food, and data management) through the collaboration of academic and research institutions, enterprise, munici-
palities and local residents. For more information go to the website of the City of Amsterdam.
AMS aims to become an internationally leading institute where talent is educated and engineers, designers, digital engineers and natural/social
scientist jointly develop and valorise interdisciplinary metropolitan solutions. AMS is centred on applied technology in urban themes such as
water, energy, waste, food, data and mobility, and the integration of these themes. AMS will develop a deep understanding of the city – sense the
city -, design solutions for its challenges, and integrate these into the city. In that, Amsterdam is its home base and test bed.
Urbanism staff-members Arjan van Timmeren, Remon Rooij, Kristel Aalbers, Steffen Nijhuis and many more are involved in starting up the
research and education of this new institute.
