EDITORIAL
The House, the Home and the Housing Question

ANA TOSTES
both in the organization of the family house unit and of the

multi-family housing blocks. The theory of the minimal house,
based on the Existenzminimum concept, was present, not only
in models for social housing, but also in the bourgeois house
program. It was Sigfried Giedion (18881968) who, in 1929,
wrote about modern forms of housing showing the houses
magic formula for the future: light, air and openness while
launching, in the same year, the theme of ciam ii: Minimum
Housing.
docomomo acknowledges the major relevance of reflecting on Modern Movement heritage, focusing on these main
issues: house and housing. As Joan Busquets argues in the
course of the 20th century, housing became a science due to
the huge efforts of progressive architects and their great interest in addressing this issue that had been raised with major
political impact by Engels.
I wish to thank Josep Maria Montaner and Zaida Muxi
who acted as guest editors for this issue of the Journal. Due to
their commitment and research in the field, together with the
knowledge of the range of researchers who agreed to share
their work, and their analysis and creative interpretation that
focused on some key architectural houses or housing complexes from Barcelonas innovative experiments to Robin
Hood Gardens symbolic destiny, social housing cases from
Valencia to Bogot, from Buenos Aires to So Paulo, and from
cultural to technical or gender aspects it is possible to extend this debate by reflecting on the link between design and
housing, and the house and the home.
The challenge of considering sustainability as the urgent
contemporary issue facing momo buildings and neighborhoods was reflected in the main docomomo forum discussions held during the 13 th International docomomo Conference in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2014. A result
of the discussions was the establishment of the docomomo
isc on Sustainability. Apposite to the emerging theme of
sustainability, the student workshop that preceded the Seoul
conference comprised a design discussion on the future of
Sewoon Arcade, the Seoul modern commercial and housing
mega-structure recently threatened with destruction. Thanks
to the efforts of many people the demolition has been averted
and a new, economically and socially sustainable life is
now envisaged for this amazing structure.

Editorial
This issue of the docomomo Journal is devoted to the theme

of Housing housing in its broadest meaning covering
multi-family apartment buildings, single-family houses, privately-funded housing as well as government and institution funded social/public housing.
Housing is a central program in contemporary architectural
production. Incorporating civilizing values of 19th century culture, the house arrives in the 20th century at the time notions
of private space and domestic comfort come to the fore in
Western Culture as values inseparable from the emergence
of the family in domestic space: the home. In 1951 Martin
Heidegger (18891976), in his Darmstader sprache, Bauen,
Wohnen, Denken, relates the word building (bau) with the
verb to be and the action of being (bin), to conclude that
dwelling is the fundamental trait of being, the mortals living
condition. Looking to reframe the sense of construction and
to identify the meaning of being, Heideggers criticism is
moved by the failure of the so-called rational materialistic
solution, and opens the discussion up to the re-evaluation of
the design action as a unique, magical and creative action.
In the second half of the 19th century, with the Arts and
Crafts movement, a process focused on finding comfort and
a sense of intimacy and privacy in the dwelling is begun.
Espoused by the vanguard of the early 19th century, housing
became a tool of the ideological agenda of the modernity. The
analysis of dwelling conditions implies an understanding of
the occupation of space: related spaces, uses and functions.
Addressing the act of living as a cultural fact, the house reflects the time and manner of its production. In its internal
organization, the house responds to the mode of existence
that the environment, culture and civilization suggest. Its design reveals the time and taste of the inhabitants, the familys
habits, and it offers many clues about the nature of social relations. The rapid changes in domestic architecture that followed the course of the 19th century have profoundly altered
the boundary between public and private space.
Following Engels housing question (1872), the idea of a
home for all or, as it has been stated in the 60s, for the greatest number, addresses architecture practice at a political level, becoming to be understood as a determinant social factor.
With a new twist, modern homes brought to the debate
themes of public and private life, intimacy, exposure and gender. The house, seen from the cell, the module, the system, and
expanded across the city, constituted the fundamental issue
debated within the architecture of the Modern Movement.
ciam discussion forums triggered profound consequences,
Chair of docomomo International
The 13th International docomomo Conference took place in Seoul, Korea, between 24
and 27 September 2014. Jong Soung Kimm,
Chair of the 13th International docomomo Conference, explains that after much
soul-searching, Expansion and Conflict was
agreed as the theme by the organizers, and
was presented at the Helsinki conference in
2012.1 Jong Soung stresses that the keyword
in the theme is conflict, and that word at
one point was put forward as the lead of the
catch phrase.2 Not as a pejorative word,
conflict was used as a challenge to invoke
a critical dialogue about the diasporas of the
Modern Movement: how it has extended and
taken root in various cultures and generations
as well as how there has been conflict, if any,
during this process, as explains Tae Woo Kim,
Chair of docomomo Korea3.
Moreover, as the first International
docomomo conference held in Asia, the
13th International docomomo Conferences
call for papers emphasized the necessity of
re-measurement of the expansion of the
modern ethos within the different context of
Asia. Instigated by a geo-political expansionist policy, colonial expansion produced
violent confrontations and challenged the
very cultural and heritage foundation of
Asia. As a result, the relevancy of the Modern
Movement not as a style but as a way of
thinking, a harbinger of contemporary values
was tested and fortified. Predictably,
modernity in Asia grew and matured through
this process of conflict and expansion and
intrinsically took on very distinct identities in
different regions. To comprehend the variety
of Asian Modernisms, besides the usual subthemes on Education & Theory, Urbanism
& Landscape, Conservation & Re-Use and
Technology, the call for papers integrated
a sub-theme on Asia Modernity, in order to
map a comparative analysis of each countrys
modern roots and major achievements.
Ultimately, the conference was about the
resilience of the Modern Movement.
The opening ceremony was held in the
evening of 24 September at the Ninetree
Convention Center, hosted by Tae Woo
and Jong Soung Kimm and introduced by
Eui-Sung Yi. Many distinguished guests,

docomomo partners representatives
uia, unesco, icomos and the Getty Conservation Institute and docomomo
friends attended the ceremony, which
included Korean traditional music and dance
performances. docomomo International
Chair, Ana Tostes, formally opened the 13 th
International docomomo Conference.
The conference itself, between 25 and 27
September, took place in the recently-renovated National Museum of Modern and
Contemporary Art, Seoul. The museum is a
modern extension and renovation of the old
Kimusa Military Hospital, built in 1928 during
the Japanese occupation. Following that
function, it was used as the Defense Security
Command building during the tumultuous
early days of democracy in Korea. The occasion to preserve its history and infuse it with
modern cultural relevance was celebrated
and inaugurated by the 13 th International docomomo Conference as its first major event.
About 80 papers were presented at three

simultaneous sessions, during three enlightening days of discovery that were a huge
success. Moreover, it was with great satisfaction that docomomo International and docomomo Korea published the Proceedings
of the 13 th International docomomo Conference for distribution to all the participants in
the first day.
The first Conference day was opened with
an inspiring keynote lecture by Jong Soung
Kimm about the legacy of Mies van der Rohe
with whom he worked during the 60s
in modern architecture in Korea. The audience had the opportunity to listen to Jong
Soung talk about Mies influences on his own
practice of architecture in Korea. The day
was closed with the keynote lecture by Hubert-Jan Henket raising awareness towards
to the future of docomomo. The founder of
docomomo International recalled that two
of the main global problems we are facing
today climate change and violent clashes
between old cultures and Modernity have
their roots in the history of Modernity4,
appealing to all to join forces by making use
of the lessons from the Modern Movement,
contributing to the model where economic growth develops in harmony with the
principles of re-use, reduction and recycling;
through wise balances between old and new,
as well between different cultural regions.

and Ana Tostes, called for the creation

of a docomomo International Specialist
Committee on Sustainability. Docomomo
International challenges everyone interested
in participating, to send to docomomo@
tecnico.ulisboa their ideas and suggestions,
before 6 January 2015.
Fumihiko Maki opened the second day
with a lecture on the theme of the conference through his Investigations on Collective
Form, contributing for the debate on the
effect of the growth process of the great metropolises on the scope of Modern Movement
ideas: as Fumihiko Maki argues, searching for
new formal concepts in contemporary cities
lies in the magnitude of recent change due
to the unprecedented rapid and extensive
transformations in the physical structure
of society, rapid communication methods,
technological progress and its impact upon
regional cultures: we must see our society
as a dynamic field of interrelated forces, a
dynamic equilibrium [] which will change
in character as time passes (Maki, 1964).5
The docomomo Council Meeting took
place in the afternoon. Angola, Israel, Kuwait,
Taiwan and Thailand were accepted as new
docomomo Working Parties and were
welcomed to the docomomo family. Egypt,
Hong Kong and Macao also became active
Working Parties, losing their provisional
status. Zara Ferreira was elected as the new
General Secretary of docomomo International. The Council offered a vote of thanks
to Ivan Blasi, in recognition of his work and
commitment to docomomo over the last 4
years as General Secretary.
The Council approved Lisbon as the venue
of the 14th International docomomo Conference between 6 and 9 September 2016, under
the theme: Adaptative Re-Use. The Modern
Movement towards the Future. In a break
with tradition, the Lisbon conference is being

organized by the International Secretariat, reason why the Council stressed the importance
of all Working Parties helping docomomo
International in this challenging and hard task.
The International Specialist Committees
presented their reports and plans of action
for the next two years. Changes were made
to some of the committees and these are listed in the Appendix to this journal. The docomomo International Specialist Committee
on Publications was re-created. The members
of Advisory Board remained the same and
the new Executive Committee was elected,
consisting of Ana Tostes, Zara Ferreira, Louise Noelle and Panayotis Tournikiotis.

proposed amendments to the Eindhoven
Statement (1990), focusing on the theme of
re-use and sustainability, in order to address
docomomos future challenges, namely
to formulate new ideas for the future of
the built environment based on the past
experiences of the Modern Movement. The
Council Meeting discussed the proposal and a
new Statement, the Eindhoven-Seoul Statement
2014, was unanimously approved as follows:
4. Oppose destruction and disfigurement of

significant works.
5. Foster and disseminate the development of
appropriate techniques and methods of
conservation and adaptive (re)use.
6. Attract funding for documentation conservation and (re)use
7. Explore and develop new ideas for the
future of a sustainable built environment
based on the past experiences of the Modern Movement.
DOCOMOMO International is a non-profit

organization dedicated to the DOcumentation and COnservation of buildings, sites and
neighbourhoods of the MOdern MOvement.
It aims to:
1. Bring the significance of the architecture of
the Modern Movement to the attention of
the public, the authorities, the professionals
and the educational community.
2. Identify and promote the surveying of the
works of the Modern Movement.
3. Promote the conservation and (re)use
of buildings and sites of the Modern
Movement.

Within the scope of the conference and of

its Expansion & Conflict theme, the 13th
International docomomo Workshop took
place in Seoul, Korea, between 19 and 23
September 2014, under the theme Strategies
for the Sewoon Arcade.
The Sewoon Arcade was built in 1967, by
Kim Swoo-Geun founder of the Space
Group at the instigation of President Park
to fill an urban gap created by the Japanese
colonizing forces in Seoul. This gap was
shaped by removing a 50m wide corridor several kilometres long, within the fabric of the
city, to prevent the ravages of fire that were
very common in a city where the majority of
buildings were of timber. After the end of the
war in 1945, this urban gap became a magnet
for the thousands of war refugees and the
homeless, creating a dense and problematic
informal settlement for a city aspiring for a
rebirth. Thats when President Park ordered
the filling of the gap with this ensemble
comprising four mega-structure blocks along
the 1 kilometre corridor, that were designed
according to the then contemporary notions
of mixed-use urban programming. It was

one of Seouls first high-rise developments,
featuring some of the citys first elevators.
From 1967 to 1977, the Sewoon Arcade was a
social and commercial success, desired by the
new, emerging working and middle classes.
However, with the rapid economic and technological growth of Korea and Seoul, Sewoon
Arcade quickly became archaic and lost its
use and relevance. After repeated attempts to
revitalize this mega-structure, the government
had decided to demolish the Sewoon Arcade
and create a green corridor in its footprint.
The aim of the workshop was to re-think
alternative futures for the Sewoon Arcade,
evaluating its history and its current relevance. Being a project based on an idea of
multiplicity and simultaneity, with complex
layers of histories and meanings, the main
proposals included revitalization based on
the idea of re-use as the most sustainable
route for the future of the building and the
city of Seoul and its people.
In the meantime, the government reversed
its demolition decision, which represented an
important step for how Seoul could deal with

the legacy of urban conservation in the future.
The workshop consisted of nine teams
formed by Korean and International PhD
and Masters degree students, each of them
led by two tutors (a Korean architect and
an international tutor). The workshop took
place at the Dongdaemun Design Plaza and
in the architectural offices of the nine Korean
tutors, which facilitated a great international
exchange. It included lectures and cultural
experiences, such as a temple stay on the
first night. For four days, the teams reflected
on the Sewoon Arcade and how modern
heritage can deal with the citys evolution,
sustainability and its social impact.
The results can be accessed via the following links:

Histoire Matrielle du Bti et Projet de

Modern and contemporary construction
emerged as the exercise of architecture as a
profession, both in its scope, and in the theoretical issues it raised.
The architectural project, the nearest to
the final and existing project, is defined as a
backup, that is to say a conservation project
that also suggests a new materiality. The application of new materials requires a refined
knowledge concerning the maintenance,
preservation, restoration or even weiterbauen to implement. The history of the
materiality of a building constitutes a fundamental and primordial aspect, which requires
a thorough knowledge of different types of
materials, construction sites and construction
systems developed in the 20th century.
This collection of essays and critical
reflections intends to participate in the
recognition of this new discipline that is both
the history of materials and preservation
planning projects. An active knowledge
combined with the practice, research and
education in architecture. Based on a unique
approach highlighting the construction itself,
this reference book requires an expansion on
contemporary architectural research as well
as a consideration for preserving the quality
of the most recent constructions.

Photography & Modern Architecture

in Spain 1925-1965

ISBN: 978-84-15691-72-3

Photography & Modern Architecture in Spain
1925-1965 presents the reverse side of those
historical anthologies of projects & buildings
that books and magazines used to create the
collective imaginarium of the Spanish modern
architectural scene through the years: the
side of the photographers that depicted these
architectures. This catalogue complements the
eponymous exhibition held in Madrid at the
ico Foundation from July to September of
2014, and is also an outcome of a sponsored
research project led by Iaki Bergera and developed by a team of sixteen researchers from
different universities in Spain. The editor, Vctor Prez Escolano and Alberto Martn open
the book with three essays that underline the
void that persists in contemporary historiography in terms of the photographers role in the
construction of Spanish architectural culture,
in order to introduce a subsequent anthology
of architectural photographs that unearth
documents from more than twenty archives.
Well-known photographers, such as Francesc
Catal-Roca, Joaqun del Palacio/Kindel, or
Nicolas Muller, but also lesser-known and
even forgotten professionals such as Jess
Garca Frriz, Jos Galle Gallego or Cristobal
Portillo, are shown in these pages as a collective recognition of their artistic work. This is
a document without precedents, which finds
a place in the history of Spanish architecture
for that delightful partnership represented by
the work of architecture and its dissemination
through its photographical reproduction.
Mies in Brno. The Tugendhat House

Edited by Iveta ern and
Dagmar ernoukov
Publisher: Brno City Museum
ISBN: 978-80-86549-23-1
Language: English
Year: 2013
Grete and Fritz Tugendhats house was
designed in 1928-1929 by Ludwig Mies van der
Rohe, one of the most distinguished architects of the twentieth century. The house is
quite exceptional for its construction, spatial
arrangement, interior furnishing and interaction with the garden and technical facilities.
The importance of this unique work of art
for the history of modern architecture was
proclaimed in 2001 with its inscription on the
unesco World Heritage List.
The Tugendhat House was built in muticultural Brno, which played a leading role in
European modern architecture in the period
between the two world wars. The houses
enlightened owners, however, did not long
derive pleasure from it. After 1938, when the
Tugendhats abandoned Brno ahead of the
coming Nazism, the buildings function was
transformed in a similar way to the dramatic
historical events in the area where it stands.
After many decades of indifference, it gained
the attention it deserved only after the revolution in 1989.
The monograph Mies in Brno. The Tugendhat House is the first comprehensive work
about the history of this celebrated icon of
modern architecture, from its origins up to its
renovation and restoration in 2010-2012.
It presents not only well-known facts about
the building, but also a range of new information which has so far not been published. The
book loosely follows on from the ambitious
publication projects tracing Ludwig Mies van
der Rohes work in the USA and in Germany
(Mies in America and Mies in Berlin).

A cottage has always other functions than

the housing one: it offers space for dreams, illusions, adventure, relaxation and inspiration.
Architektur der Sehnsucht presents small
recreational buildings, embedded into the
most beautiful regions of Switzerland. The
resulting 1920-1980 buildings are from the
classical modernism, continuing through
the run-up to the World War II, the post-war
era, and from burgeoning postmodernism.
Many of the builders are renowned architects
such as Alfred Roth, Lux Guyer, Ernst Gisel
or Rudolf Olgiati, but there are also some
unknown gems and architectural surprises
among the works. Each house is presented
with informative and descriptive texts,
current photographs and plan drawings. The
6 indepth essays developed by architects, historians and art historians, together with the
20 building monographs, offer an unexplored
perspective on the architectural history of
the 20th century.

The episodic film, composed of a number
of short and apparently disconnected
stories, was a particularly common form of
expression of the Italian postwar cinema.
Introduced at the beginning as a translation
of international models, the episodic film
quickly reached a broad spectrum of experimentations, involving almost all important
and lesser known Italian directors from
the 1950s to the 1970s. These movies were
usually characterized by unpretentious and
light autonomous stories that were connected by a wider general theme. What made
these experiments particularly successful
and interesting was their narrative method:
avoiding the form of a novel, these juxtaposed episodes, often just satirical comments,
were able to narrate in an original way bigger
contemporary issues, wider critiques of
national costumes, and were offering often
unusual portraits of the rapidly changing
Italian society.
Storie di Case. Abitare lItalia del boom, edited
by F. De Pieri, B. Bonomo, G. Caramellino, F.
Zanfi is, in a kind of way, an episodic film of
the history of Italian architecture and cities
of the 1950s and 1970s. The book comprises
23 short stories about 23 unknown and apparently anonymous buildings, chosen almost
casually from the vast urban landscape of
three major Italian cities (Rome, Milan,
Turin). The research, conducted with accuracy through archival and oral sources by
different authors, aims to investigate, as De
Pieri calls it in the introduction, the ordinary
landscape of Italian postwar reality. The
objects of the historiographic analysis are not

the masterpieces of the residential architecture of Albini, Gardella or Moretti, not the
vicissitudes of the housing complexes of the
national program Ina-Casa, but buildings that
have never been part of any institutional history of architecture, houses that have never
been mentioned in any city or architectural
guides.
However, these micro-histories have many
common themes. Here it is useful to state just
two of them: on one side they all talk about
the physical outcomes that Italian modernization left on the city, during its fastest
growth; on the other side they describe the
taste of modernization that characterized
the citys common inhabitant. The urban
sprawl of the postwar cities was formed
entirely by buildings built by real estate
companies, in an endless negotiation with
the State, often altering its original master
plans: a process that took place outside the
jurisdiction and the ideological aspiration of
the Italian official architectural culture that
provoked debates, polemics and finally epochal disillusionment. But, at the same time,
the reality of this historic process, condensed
in the buildings that are the subject of this
book, reveals the desires and the aspirations
of a nation (a collective autobiography,
to recall again De Pieri) that created after
the war, almost from nothing, its identity
and ultimately its innovativeness. The many
details that are reported in the essays, together with a brilliant photographic reportage
made by Stefano Graziani, constitute a small
encyclopedia of the visual imagining of the
Italian economic miracle, which reveals an
incredible general belief in modernity of that
period, which is today totally lost.
This precious collection of details, these
numerous small stories, sometimes lack a general recapitulation. The voluminous evidence
gathered by the authors does not always automatically lead to conclusions, especially in
understanding the homogeneity or diversity
shared by the different case-studies. But as it
often happens with an intriguing story, one is
always curious to learn more about it.
