  ISBN: 978-3-0343-1866-2
  Abstract Central to human life and experience, habitation forms a context for enquiry within many disciplines. This collection brings together perspectives on human habitation in the fields of anthropology, archaeology, social history, material culture, literature, art and design, and architecture. Significant shared themes are the physical and social structuring of space, practice and agency, consumption and gender, and permanence and impermanence. Topics range from archaeological artefacts to architectural concepts, from Romano-British consumption to the 1950s Playboy apartment, from historical elite habitation to present-day homelessness, from dwelling «on the move» to the crisis of household dissolution, and from interior design to installation art. Not only is this volume a rich resource of varied aspects and contexts of habitation, it also provides compelling examples of the potential for interdisciplinary conversations around significant shared themes.Website

  Abstract Architectural live project education (including Design Build projects, Extension Projects and Service Learning) is evolving rapidly. A body of research is emerging that describes, defines and analyses contemporary activity. The majority are based on case studies that rely on the quality of the author’s critique and do not always locate the case study within a wider theoretical, historical or cultural context. The aim of this paper is to develop an objective method to analyse live projects that transcend customary value judgements used to critique and categorise architectural practice, research and education. In seeking relevant new criteria for critique, by including the peripheral and promoting diversity and evolution, this study surveys and widens the field. The paper develops an objective method to analyse live projects, comparing 154 contemporary live project case studies located in 28 different countries that have been drawn from the international online Live Projects Network.
   
  This paper explores three connected questions: What differentiates and connects contemporary international live projects? What live project models and strategies have emerged to date? What influence are live projects having on architectural education, research and practice?
   
  Ordering live projects by singular categories such as outcome or motive fail to acknowledge their complexity or to uncover new models and strategies. Quantitative and qualitative methods of analysis are developed to cope with multiple motivations and actors. The analyses demonstrates that human and physical resources and contexts have the greatest influence on diversity of live project models and strategies. The expertise of the live project participants is capable of overcoming contextual resource limitations via design ingenuity. A Taxonomy has been developed to illustrate the relationship between these factors. This improved understanding of how live project models and strategies work, allows us to identify the ways in which they are influencing contemporary architectural education, research and practice.

  Abstract
  Should architectural education pull away from the design studio as the dominant form for architectural education? Can live projects offer a more relevant, inclusive, and engaging model?
   
  In order to establish points of divergence from studio-based learning and using a definition of live projects  established in collaboration with Colin Priest, a comparative analysis is made between contemporary architectural live projects and the Public Art Projects led by David Harding at the Environmental Art Department, Glasgow School of Art from 1985. This comparison reveals the potential of live projects to extend collaborative ways of working beyond graduation and between the university and its community. With reference to Lave and Wenger’s theory of situated learning as legitimate peripheral participation,  the paper demonstrates how live project learning can be understood and valued. A case is made for a shift towards a transformative, democratic and holistic form of learning made possible by live projects.

• Anderson J, Priest C, 'The Live Education of an Architect: John Hejduk and Oxford Brookes Year One Live Projects.'
  Journal for Education in the Built Environment 7 (2) (2012) pp.50-62
  ISSN: 1747-4205 eISSN: 1747-4205
  Abstract This paper explores a proposal for a new form of ‘architectural agency’ as a means to undertake live projects in education. This has been tested by the authors in a programme of live projects named OB1 LIVE begun in 2008. These projects are commissioned by community-based clients and created by year one students at Oxford Brookes School of Architecture. Live projects are often understood as ‘building’ projects happening outside the studio, as if in opposition to design studio projects. OB1 LIVE seeks to take theoretical ideas into the city and bring the real world into the studio.
  
  The paper tests and extends pedagogic theories raised by John Hejduk's, Education of an Architect and explores the realisation of his theoretical projects into built works by reflecting on Writing the City, his student-built project in Stockholm in 1998. Live projects expose the social, cultural and political processes of both design and construction. We outline our pedagogical strategy to use live projects to situate the learning of students in a place that is relevant to their expectations of both architectural education and practice.
   
  This creates a shift in teaching method from the contemporary student/tutor relationship. The ‘architectural agency’ requires tutors to negotiate with a client willing to give time and flexibility of expectation in return for the energy and originality of student designers. The tutor-as-agent is critical to the dynamic of this relationship, their skills being essential to support learning and creativity and meet the expectations of all participants.

  Abstract

  The development of an inclusive definition and typological analysis are discussed in the context of Lave and Wenger’s theory of situated learning via a process of legitimate peripheral participation and findings from OB1 LIVE, the authors’ programme of live projects. The diversity of live project models that this revealed has been tested, expanded and disseminated through the Live Projects Network, an online resource to recognise and connect a multiplicity of participants in live project practice.

  Abstract In architectural Live Projects (also known as Design Build, Service Learning, Extension Projects, 1:1 Projects), students and academics work with external organisations and communities to generate projects. This enables investigation of the experiential, technical, ethical, social, political, economic and cultural implications of architectural design decisions in ways that are not possible in the conventional academic design studio or commercial architectural practice.
   
  Architectural Design Research methodologies offer possibilities for live project educators to tap the research potential of their work. As defined by Fraser, in this methodology “architects use the creation of projects…..as the central constituents in a process which also involves….more generalised research activities” (2013, p.1).
   
  Live Projects and Design Research are both relatively recent innovations in the discipline of architecture. This workshop explores their potential to work together to create innovative and authentic research outcomes and enrich the learning and research derived from live project activity.

  Abstract Conventional architectural pedagogies have evolved to fit the design studio model. With the increasing use of Design-Build-Live projects in contemporary architectural education, we need to develop a theory of learning and teaching appropriate to the particular contexts and opportunities of Design-Build-Live project education. This paper explores the complex relationship between imagination and reality and their role in shaping a live project pedagogy.Website

  ISBN: 978-0-9929705-2-9
  Abstract This paper describes a taxonomy of live projects assembled using data from the Live Projects Network (LPN). The website organises case study projects according to their resources, product and context. A quantitative analysis of this data informed a qualitative analysis of primary motivations for each project. Four primary motivations were found. Through correlation of resources, product, context and motives, trends and patterns were identified. Thirteen different live project models or species were observed and arranged into a taxonomy. Species so
  far identified and described include Fabrication Wizards and Woodland Creatures. A discussion of emerging live project models is made with reference to the three categories of motivation for live projects identified by Dodd, Harrisson and Charlesworth  and also an evolution of typologies described by Brown.

• Anderson J, 'The design research methodology of Atelier Bow Wow.'
  (2016)
  ISSN: eISSN:
  Abstract Contemporary European structures for public research funding and research excellence assessment have established an orthodoxy where tangible outcomes are expected in return for the investment made. The dominant scientific research methodology demands proof. This can be problematic for disciplines such as architecture that not only produce material outcomes in the form of buildings and other design objects, but which integrate this with the manipulation of subjective or intangible elements that are essential to the design and inhabitation of architecture. Buchli describes the architectural object as existing in different material registers that can be tangible or intangible and that these differences enable us to use or be influenced by objects to facilitate social relations.1 Through analysis of the built and written work of the contemporary Japanese architects and academics, Atelier Bow Wow, we can see that their use of observation, collection and documentation not only deepens our understanding of the complex relationship between the architectural object and subject, but it adopts a novel approach that they liken to being closer to biology, sociology and anthropology.2 Their work demonstrates ways that architects can develop robust and repeatable design methodologies and outcomes that give not only tangible but also intangible benefits to the architect, the inhabitant and society.Website

  ISSN: eISSN:
  Abstract The paper will encapsulate a series of enquiries into imagination and reality undertaken in 2011-12 through various forms of spatial narrative, comprising a series of design projects, a publication, Fabrications and an installation as part of the Other Worlds exhibition at The Story Museum, Oxford. The compositional potential of stories as a critical operative device to re-present space will be explored with reference to the work of architect, writer, artist and poet, John Hedjuk, and his response to what he termed the “so called real world”. (Hejduk, 1985 in Linder, 2004, p.181).
   
  The Story Museum invited OB1 LIVE (Oxford Brookes University year one architecture and interior architecture students) to collaborate on a project to help them occupy their vacant building prior to refurbishment. This sparked two parallel and reciprocal journeys as both parties investigated ways to construct imaginative space and learned to express an imagined reality. Implementing stories as a tool for design, students were asked to write a flash-fictional story unfolding in the Museum’s empty former telephone exchange. These stories amassed a chronicle of imagined transformation for reading space and its associated histories and the conceptual foundations for the ensuing project, named “Fabrications”. This title was inspired by a dictionary definition given by John Hedjuk to his year one students of architecture where he drew attention to the unexpected etymological connection between the reality of building
  (“to fabricate”) and the invention of a lie or a story (“to fabricate”). The subsequent prototypical environments were designed for (mis)reading with the building, superimposing serendipitous narratives. Using everyday and recycled materials Fabrications ranged from interactive shelves to hybrid chairs. The next project then jumped forward to an anticipated but more uncertain and speculative future with designs for a storytelling tower that focused on the experience of the narrative journey. Lessons learned from Hejduk’s Lancaster / Hanover Masques (pictured right) will inform the translation of architectural models of these towers into an expression of narrative space, negating their physical presence to return them to their fictional state as they are exhibited in The Story Museum which also embodies this state as it awaits occupation.

  Abstract

  The Live Projects Network (www.liveprojectsnetwork.org), currently in its beta version, is an online resource to connect students, clients and academics who are involved, or wish to become involved in live projects. The purpose of the network is to promote and extend live project practice. The authors have analysed case studies and proposed a definition of a live project plus a flexible methodology to broaden understanding of current live project practice and as a tool for practitioners to analyse and plan their own projects. At the moment the network is focused on architectural live projects but there is scope for it to serve an interdisciplinary purpose in the future. The project to establish an online Live Projects Network stemmed from an observation that many architecture schools in the UK and across the world were tentatively engaging with live projects. By our definition, a live project comprises the negotiation of a brief, timescale, budget and product between a client and the students and staff of an educational institution. Although architectural live projects became well known through the activities of Rural Studio in the USA nearly twenty years ago, live project practice tends to occur in relative isolation. Case studies, when reported are rarely analysed and there is little research into, or theoretical basis established for, the pedagogy and practice of live projects. The Live Projects Network seeks to connect existing and new practitioners and to deepen understanding of the potential of educational live projects.
