Intermittent Cities
Book Chapter in: Emerging voices on new architectural ecologies
Chapter title: Intermittent Cities: Temporary uses and sharing practices to support an adaptive urban space
Authors: Alessia Allegri, Maria Matos Silva, Rita Ochoa, André Geraldes, Clarissa Rocha, Joel Filipe & Rita Monteiro.
Publication: Emerging voices on new architectural ecologies. Curated by Cristina Veríssimo, Diogo Burnay. Circo de Ideias + Trienal de Arquitectura de Lisboa 2022.
The interdisciplinary funded project, Intermittent Cities, led by FCT and CIAUD.ULisboa, explores transformation processes that empower temporary and sharing practices in urban spaces. Specifically, for Triennale Universities Competition 2022, a study was carried out by three Portuguese universities – FA_ULisboa, ISA_ULisboa, and DECA_UBI – promoting each of their different specialisations (Urbanism, Landscape Architecture, Architecture), yet keeping a common line on the set of practices and inventive imaginaries that explore the city through an intermittent perspective. Acknowledging that intermittent approaches can lead to new disciplinary paradigms which are fundamentally flexible, students were invited to focus on: (i) everyday needs or effervescent collective experiments in public spaces; (ii) small initiatives or self-organised reclaim-the-city green spaces; and (iii) regeneration programmes for vacant and obsolete spaces.
