Dear Members of University Tunis Carthage Community

Since its inception in 1993, University Tunis Carthage has dedicated itself to the promotion of excellence in teaching and to the preparation of Tunisia’s future leaders. One of the most distinctive attributes of UTC has always been its constant commitment to leadership in each field we teach. While various international reports on higher education describe today’s universities as slow and unresponsive organizations hindered by traditions and bureaucratic hurdles, at UTC we pride ourselves on having a flexible structure and entrepreneurial culture that propels us to stay at the forefront of education by constantly examining our ever-changing environment, developing and improving our programs to provide our students with a practical education that enables them to achieve their fullest potential.

As we are launching our first studio design catalogue for the academic year of 2015/2016, I look back with pride and affection at the multitude of goals we have accomplished during the past 17 years since the inception of the UTC School of Architecture in 1999. Today, as the oldest private school of architecture in Tunisia with a growing national reputation, UTC School of Architecture shows no indication of stopping to relax. While some architecture schools still function as academies offering a one-size-fits-all training, at UTC we celebrate diversity and open our doors to debate and disagreement as we believe that there is no one true way of doing architecture. This is why we reach to critics, professors and architects from around the world to share their ideas with us and expand our students’ thinking. The School of Architecture is fully committed to the University’s mission of leadership and academic excellence. The most recent examples of this commitment to excellence are our design studios (ateliers d’architecture) led by a group of distinguished American professors and architects. The creation of these American-faculty-led studio designs is a transformational development unique in Tunisia.

I am most grateful to Professor Stanley Hallet and his team, all of whom agreed to serve beyond the time they would have wished in order to implement these innovative American-faculty-led design studios during the first and second semester of the academic year 2015/2016. I am pleased to present the UTC Design Studio Catalogue for the academic year of 2015/2016 celebrating selected projects completed by the first year architecture students’ work completed during this past academic year.

With a productive year behind us, we are earnestly focused on what lies ahead, as 2016/2017 will be another invigorating year for UTC and our School of Architecture. We look forward to implementing the next phase of our programs and design studios reform plan as I am confident that this is the beginning of a transforming the School of Architecture curriculum. This can only raise UTC’s architecture program quality and contribute to advancing architecture education in Tunisia.

The Design Workshop

The UTC School of Architecture is currently revisiting their design studio content and methodologies and has invited a team of distinguished American educators and architects to participate in three to four week long design studio/workshops intended to bring a fresh pedagogical approach to both the content and methodology informing the first and second year design studios.

The studio/workshops meet Monday through Friday each week at the beginning of the academic year when and where the professors will explore unique exercises in design developed for introductory and continuing students of architectural design. A team of distinguished American educators and architects have ebeen invited to lead the studios alongside of their Tunisian counterparts. It is the intent of the proposed exercises to inform the development of future studios given at UTC during the following academic years .

The First Year Workshop Studio consists primarily of exercises focused on the exploration of an architectural vocabulary appropriate to both the unique culture and climate of the Tunisian landscape. It will at the same time develop an architectural language consistent with contemporary thought and discourse. The Second Year Workshop Studio will build upon such design strategies applying such lessons to modest architectural proposals at a variety of urban and architectural scales.

The world of design seems to be constantly exploring two opposite tendencies, one based upon the vegetal world of curves found in nature, the other constructed by man out of the straight lines found in descriptive geometry. Civilizations explored both extremes, often moving over time from one disposition to the other, separating or combining them at will. Artists (Mondrian versus Calder), Architects (Mies Van Der Roe versus Le Courbusier) and Landscape Design (Moghul versus Japanese) explore such tendencies with passion. Of interest, the art of Islamic Calligraphy falls into two great fields of calligraphy; Kufi and Naskhi. Simply understood, Kufi, composed of straight lines relates well to the properties of the materials of construction (bricks and tiles) and the media of printing. Naskhi. responds to the flowing movement of the pen and relates to the tradition of writing on parchment. Of note, Kufi script often bursts into the vegetal (floriated Kufi) as overlaps and combinations of the two forms of calligraphy continue to be developed. The studio problem will explore these two worlds of Kufi and Naskhi. in the development of two and three dimensional models that can exist at a variety of scales and imply both the organizations of garden terrains as well as urban fabric.

Le monde du design semble constamment explorer deux tendances opposées, l’une est basée sur les courbes du monde végétal trouvées dans la nature, l’autre, construit par l’homme par des lignes droites trouvées dans la géométrie descriptive. Les civilisations ont exploré ces deux extrêmes au fil du temps passant d’une disposition à une autre, les séparant ou les combinant à volonté. Les artistes (Mondrian vs Calder), architectes (Mies Van Der Roe vs Le Corbusier) et les paysagistes (Moghul vs Japonais) ont de même exploré ces tendances avec passion. Dans ce contexte, l’art de la calligraphie islamique se divise en deux grandes tendances ; Kufi and Naskhi. L’écriture Kufi, composée de lignes droites, se limite aux matériaux de construction (briques et tuiles) et à l’impression. L’écriture Naskhi prend forme des mouvements fluides du crayon et est relative aux traditions d’écriture sur parchemin. Il est à noter que l’écriture Kufi s’immerge dans le végétal (Kufi floral) puisque la combinaison et l’enchevêtrement des deux formes de calligraphie continuent à être développés. L’exercice explorera le monde de l’écriture Kufi et Naskhi pour le développement de modèles en 2D et 3D pouvant exister à plusieurs échelles et impliquant aussi bien l’organisation de jardins que de tissu urbain.

Thin Wall

Thick Wall 7 days

The second of three short exercises is designed to introduce the beginning student to space making through the manipulation of a single thin or thick wall. Extrusions of the wall combined with overhead beams and further manipulations of the ground define potentially rich urban and architectural spaces.

The wall is ever present in architecture, defining space structurally as well as giving character to what is behind as well as in front of the wall. In Tunisia, a wall traditionally constructed of stone and rubble provides privacy as well as shelter from the hot desert sun. When surmounted by vaults or domes, the wall often requires counter-forces or buttresses to resist lateral structural forces. The beautiful mosques of Djerba demonstrate these structural forces as well as provide shade. This exercise provides an opportunity to explore the Thin Wall (1m deep by 5m high) or the Thick Wall (5m deep by 5m high) that can be played with, eliminated in part or extracted ‘pulled out’ to provide structure and shade. Ultimately, both variations of the exercise can construct exterior landscapes that further define the very process of making architectural shelter, urban fabric and the interweaving of the landscape.

Le mur est toujours présent en architecture, structurant l’espace et donnant du caractère à ce qui se trouve devant ou derrière lui. En Tunisie, un mur traditionnel construit de pierres et de graviers procure de l’intimité à l’espace et un abri de la chaleur du désert. Quand il est surmonté par des voûtes ou des dômes, le mur requiert des appuis ou des contreforts pour résister aux forces structurelles latérales. Les belles mosquées de Djerba témoignent de ces caractéristiques tout comme elles offrent de l’ombre. L’exercice ‘Thin Wall or Thick Wall’ offre une opportunité pour explorer un mur fin (1m x 5m) ou un mur très épais (6m x 5m) à modéliser en soustrayant quelques parties ou en procédant à des extractions pour créer des éléments de structure, de l’ombre et probablement pour définir un paysage extérieur construit qu’on peut explorer à une échelle architecturale et urbaine.

Kit of Parts 12 days

The third of three short exercises explores the making of architectural space through the maniplation of a basic kit of architectural parts consisting of the wall, the column, the floor slab and the vault.

A modular grid provides the game board for eventually combining a garden retreat with a simple architectural program. SketchUp modeling combined with enhanced plug-ins further enhances the resulting architectural and landscape proposals.

To explore a game of space making, we have assembled a kit of parts. The basic kit contains thick and thin columns, small and large beams, a set of joists or shading devices and a wall that can be extended to any length. A second kit contains the traditional floor slab, vault and dome. The game is played on a terrain that measures 36.50m by 52.50m by 3m deep. The surface contains a square ‘tartan’ grid .50m by 3.5m. During the first five days the students will explore with these simple components a variety interrelated spaces of varying density and enclosure. During the second week a modest program will be assigned to two groups of students and the game of spaces will be redefined to accommodate a tea garden (group a) or a water pavilion (group b).

Le kit de base contient des colonnes fines et épaisses, des poutres petites et larges, un set de solives ou d’éléments d’ombre et un mur qui peut être étiré à n’importe quelle hauteur. Un deuxième kit contient le terrain traditionnel, des voûtes et des dômes. Le jeu tient place sur un terrain de 36.5m x 52.5m x 3m.

Durant les 5 premiers jours, les étudiants vont explorer une variété d’espaces enchevêtrés de différentes densités. Durant la deuxième semaine, un programme sera affecté à deux groupes d’étudiants et le jeu d’espace sera redéfini pour accommoder un jardin de thé (groupe a) ou un pavillon d’eau.

To explore a game of space making, we have assembled a kit of parts. The basic kit contains thick and thin columns, small and large beams, a set of joists or shading devices and a wall that can be extended to any length. A second kit contains the traditional floor slab, vault and dome. The game is played on a terrain that measures 36.50m by 52.50m by 3m deep.

and contains a square

‘tartan’ grid .50m by 3.5m.

During the first five days the students will explore with these simple components a variety interrelated spaces of varying density and enclosure. During the second week the game of spaces will be redefined to accommodate a tea garden or a poets retreat.

Some believe the game of Chess originated in China over 1500 years ago. We know it was played in India where soon after the game moved on to Persia (Iran). Once the Arabs conquered Iran, the game spread throughout the Arabic world and Europe. This studio exercise asks the student to construct a chessboard and table, design the six types of pieces and play a game in 3D Sketchup. In the course of the exercise the objectives are as follows:

Better understand the role of the Sketchup 3D model, the use of components, (composites), the role of layers (calques) and the basic steps in 3D modeling.

The first year studio decided to explore the second year exercise Under Over.

The exercise explores the radically different processes inherent in digging versus assembling, of negatively carving space out of a solid versus constructing space by combining basic architectural elements. It also contrasts a retreat below the earth’s surface to escape the heat of day with above ground constructs open to the cool winds of the night.

In the south of Tunisia the combination of a dry hot climate, the cultural need for privacy of the family and the presence of a soil of limestone (calcaire) that is easily molded and carved or dug into has led to a particular form of courtyard housing that relates well to the inhabitants. During the hot summer days, the interiors of the rooms carved into sides of the court are always comfortable, yet during the cool evenings and nights, the inhabitants can take refuge on the ground above. This movement of people from below the earth’s surface during the day to above the earth’s surface at night will be explored in terms of how it can effect architectural as well as urban form and could be applied not only to housing but also to problems of varying scales such as hotels, schools and even centers for manufacturing goods. This exercise will explore the general problems of digging into the ground, construction above the ground and access between these two elevations of habitation and use.

Dans le sud de la Tunisie la combinaison d’un climat chaud et humide, des besoins culturels intimité de la vie familiale et la présence d’un sol calcaire qu’on peut facilement modeler ou creuser ce qui offre des formes particulières d’habitations à patio qui correspondent au mode de vie des usagers. Durant les jours chauds de l’été, les intérieurs des chambres creusées dans le sol et qui ouvrent sur le patio sont toujours confortables, pourtant durant les soirées et les nuits fraiches, les usagers peuvent se réfugier à l’étage. Le mouvement et le déplacement des usagers depuis le sous-sol durant la journée vers l’étage durant la nuit affecte la forme architecturale et aussi urbaine ; il pourrait cependant être appliquée non seulement au logement mais aussi à d’autres usages tel que les hôtels, les écoles.

Cet exercice explore la question de l’architecture en creusant dans le sol et la construction au-dessus du sol et la relation entre ces deux formes d’architecture et l’usage.

Workshop II

Open Market

three weeks

The design of the Open Market and Cafe combines an understanding of the materials and details of assembly required at the scale of furniture design with a sensitivity to working at the opposite larger scale of the urban fabric, the public landscape and the bustling food market.

The challenge is to see how the resulting urban space can be used when the market is not active, possibly 3 to 5 days per week.

Avec le nouvel intérêt porté aux produits frais de la ferme, les marchés urbains en plein air ont gagné en popularité. Le défi est de voir comment l’espace urbain qui en résulte peut être utilisé lorsque le marché est fermé, peut-être 3 à 5 jours par semaine. Bien que le marché se trouve dans une espace urbain, l’échelle des stands du marché est similaire à celle d’un mobilier. L’étudiant est appelé à concevoir un kit préfabriqué (des pièces) pour fournir aux agriculteurs un espace pour stocker et exposer leurs produits. Ça sera aussi un abri contre les intempéries. L’eau et l’électricité doivent être mises à la disposition de chaque stand durant la journée ainsi que pour les activités nocturnes. Votre proposition de conception sera composée de 30 stands d’environ 4m x 4m dans un espace couvert et 1m x 4m de table d’exposition ou d’espace de comptoir. Le projet devrait également contenir

un petit café, des sanitaires publics, un espace de stockage

et un parking de 20 places pour des camionnettes à proximité des commerces.

Des parties du site doivent également être couvertes pour fournir de l’ombre pour les activités prévues quand le marché est fermé telles que des pique-niques, des rassemblements de famille, parties d’échecs, etc.

Cet exercice a pour intérêt d’explorer le design urbain d’un site critique à Tunis ouvert au public, ainsi que le paysage urbain lié à l’utilisation du site durant toute la semaine, le programme architectural est constitué d’un ensemble commercial composé de plusieurs kiosques indépendants, une réflexion sur les détails de fabrication et l’échelle des mobiliers urbains sera demandé afin de créer 30 kiosques pouvant avoir des utilisations commerciales variées.

With a renewed interest in fresh farm produce, urban open markets have been gaining in popularity. The challenge is to see how the resulting urban space can be used when the market is not active, possibly 3 to 5 days per week. Although the location the market is urban, the scale of the market stalls is similar to furniture. The student is encouraged to explore a prefabricated (in part) kit of components that will provide the farmers with space to store and display their produce as well as provide shelter from the hot sun or rain. Water and electricity should be made available to each ‘stall’ to support day as well as night activities. Your design proposal will consist of 30 stalls approximately 4M by 4M in covered space sheltering 1M by 4M in display table or counter space. The project should also include a small cafe that sits 20 people inside and more than 40 people outside as well as provide public bathrooms and possible storage for all or parts of the market stalls when not in use. Landscape portions of the site should also be addressed to provide shade and support other ‘park’ activities when the stalls are not in use, such as picnics, family gatherings, games of chess, etc.

Of interest, this exercise explores the Urban Design of a critical site in Tunis open to the public (trucks, merchants and pedestrians) as well as Urban Landscape issues related to the use of the site during all hours of the week, the Architectural Program consisting of a small commercial building and its related collection of interdependent kiosks and finally a Furniture-scale Problem requiring the invention and detailed fabrication of the 30 kiosks that could be designed to adapt to multiple commercial and recreational uses.
