Final Examination in Professional Practice – Part 3
This course provides a combined study of the latest issues regarding legislation,
contracts, management and practice within the architecture profession. Through
scenario based teaching it aims to develop your outlook and judgement regarding
management of architectural practice, the design and procurement of building
processes and the operational relationships between the architect, client, contractor
and associated bodies. Students are working in practice and bring a wide range of
experience to the seminar based teaching, testing their understanding of good practice
within the profession alongside others and the theoretical basis of practice, law and
contract. International students are able to engage with the course through the block
seminars during the year, and bring an external global view to the discussion forums.
MSc Historic Building Conservation, MA Interior Design, MA Sustainable
Design, MA Urban Design
The MA and MSc programmes give students a chance to specialise in a chosen subject.
The programmes are designed to extend knowledge and in-depth skills in fields that
they have studied more generally at an undergraduate or equivalent level, it enables
them to build on their existing skills and to diversify. Postgraduate study requires a
different style of learning it encourages students to be independent critical, reflective
and self-motivated. It gives students the opportunity to make choices about their study,
to own them. The MA’s and MSc draw on the strengths of the already established M.Arch
course creating an extensive post-graduate environment.
These Master’s degrees are ideal for recent graduates who want to specialise, as well
as for professionals in architecture, environment and planning who wish to re-direct
their skills and specialise in twenty-first century challenges. Each specialist subject has
approximately 7-10 students, students explore the theory and practice of their discipline
within their small groups, they then use this specialist knowledge and work within a larger
group in multi-disciplinary teams to test their ideas and theories out. This year students
have worked on a live project with the John Pounds Community Centre to re-invent the
future of Treadgolds, an ironmongers in Portsea. The students successfully presented
their work to the client body.
The current cohort of students have a wide range of backgrounds, from architecture,
interior design, geography, fine art, historic building conservation. The groups are
culturally very diverse with students from China, Malaysia, USA and India and from within
the UK. Students have engaged with the wider environment of the school, attending
PASS lectures and school trips.

MA URBAN DESIGN
This course provides opportunities for participants to engage in the current debates
about the potential role of urban designers in the generation of sustainable cities.
The course combines lectures and studio-based activities, culminating in a written or
design-led thesis project. Our MA in Urban Design fosters an enquiring spirit, intellectual
curiosity, and the development of skills needed to tackle the challenges of designing our
contemporary cities. Our students engage in theoretical discussions as well as apply this
knowledge to their own design work.
There are strong links with the M.Arch course through the Architecture and Urbanism
studio. The MA Urban Design students worked alongside other postgraduate students
on a live project for the creation of a new garden city for approximately 20,000 people.
To enhance their understanding of urban design principles and practice, a field trip to
Amsterdam was organised.
Student’s work involved group and individual work at different scales. This is visible in the
students’ engagement with site analysis, strategic master planning, debates on theories
and principles of urban design, and design research.

MSC HISTORIC BUILDING
CONSERVATION
Portsmouth is a historic city, and it is probably best known for its historic naval Dockyard.
However this year some other important heritage buildings have begun to emerge
from the fabric of the city. These have provided our Historic Building Conservation
students with firsthand experience of the challenges and opportunities of the reuse of
sensitive historic structures in the 21st century. These include Treadgold’s, an evocative
timecapsule of a 19th-century ironmongers now sadly empty and in disrepair, and the
New Theatre Royal, an innovative Victorian theatre which is in the process of restoration
and reinvention with a bold contemporary extension by Penoyre and Prasad.
Beyond Portsmouth, the students have been investigating the acclaimed regeneration of
London’s Kings Cross, where a heritage-led approach has created a vibrant new cultural
quarter in a previously dismal part of the city, whilst retaining its distinctive industrial
character.
The course is taught alongside other Masters programmes within the School of
Architecture in a unique interdisciplinary environment that invites students to explore
historic buildings and places in new ways. They are exposed to practices outside of their
own field, for example using daylight modelling to analyse historic sites and developing
creative design concepts by making artefacts. Students work in multidisciplinary groups
to propose design solutions for the sustainable reuse of redundant historic buildings in
the city, working with external clients and other stakeholders.

MA INTERIOR DESIGN
The interior design course encourages students to develop a focused area of study,
it is a diverse course that fosters creativity and thinking allowing students to question the
boundaries of their discipline and practice. This year’s group have engaged with the idea
of the interior through a series of practice based workshops, developing their research
through doing, thinking and material investigation. Students have been encouraged
through creative practice to ‘play seriously’.
The studio has used the diverse range of cultural and disciplinary references that
students bring to their understanding of the representation of interior space, to
acknowledge these differences and to use them as material to work and play with.
Through practice based means students engage with ways of working that go beyond
the visual to engage with their embodied knowledge and the sensory environment,
exploring space through material engagement; colour, light, temperature, smell,
materials and physical objects.

MA Interior Design Bo Want – Wood
Students have developed a diverse range of work exploring interior environments
through found domestic materials, the lost colours of the GDR, the urban interior, spaces
in the mind, and slow space. Students are encouraged to question the interior realm and
the performance of these spaces and how they are made, and represented both through
handcrafting and the space of the computer. The programme challenges the notion of
what interior design can be.
Students have also successfully engaged with the project office, working on live projects:
an echo house in East Meon; a café at the Guildhall, Portsmouth, and the redesign
of a historic site, Wymmering Manor. This work takes place in conjunction with the
undergraduate and post-graduate programmes.
In this year’s studio students have had contributions from Martin Andrews, Architect/
academic, Bryony Whitmarsh, Museum curator/academic, Paul Grover, architect and
Kevin Brennan, Interior Designer, Director of Brinkworth’s.

MA SUSTAINABLE
ARCHITECTURE
The MA sustainable architecture course provides graduates with opportunities to engage
in the current debates about the potential role of professionals in the generation of
sustainable environments and environmentally responsive design. The two Specialist
units are designed to enable students to integrate practice and theory through research
based projects involving the use of a range of current environmental simulation software
as part of the design process.
The students realise the importance of adopting such an integrated approach providing
them with the skills and expertise that are missing within the industry today.

UNIVERSITY OF
PORTSMOUTH: A LOWCARBON UNIVERSITY
The University of Portsmouth is determined to create a low carbon future that will inspire
and motivate staff and students to work and study at the University.
The University encourages a positive change to daily routines to meet these objectives
and more importantly recognizes the relationship between health and well-being of the
University’s staff and students in the working/learning environment and the way in which
these spaces are used and accessed.
With an understanding of the University’s objectives in mind and linked with the Erasmus
student exchange program, CURe through an ongoing research project, have produced
this map to assist in the communication of the impact on health and well-being and CO2
emission reduction by walking and cycling movement choices between the University
buildings and the prominent and important locations within the city of Portsmouth.
Walking is one of the most environmentally friendly ways of getting from A to B, it uses
no fossil fuels and produces no air pollution. The University acknowledges that if you
are keen to go green, switching from driving to walking for short journeys is one of the
easiest ways to make a difference.
It is hoped that this information will encourage staff and students to make healthier
movement choices, therefore by providing simple but interesting facts about the
various benefits associated with adopting an active travel, we hope that the use and
dissemination of this map would encourage staff and students to make healthier
movement choices and consider walking and cycling not only as a form of transport but
a means of exploring the city.
Because of its ideal location in the heart of the city and its vital role in City life, even
slight measurements that might improve walking and cycling environment within the
university could provide a more significant scope for mode shift in the city.

POSTGRADUATE RESEARCH
DEGREES
The School currently has seven Postgraduate Research Degrees students (PGRDS),
whose topics of study align directly with the School’s main research groups and themes.
Most of our PGRDS’s work is concentrated in areas such as: sustainable design, urban
and landscape design, and architectural theories and transcultural influences in design.
Under the broadly defined area of sustainable design, we find the works of Mahmood
Abdulkareen on thermal and visual comfort of residential building in Nigeria, Gillian
Hookway on the influence of environmental and spatial characteristics of retirement
homes on occupants’ sense of comfort and wellbeing and Abbas Muazu’s thesis on
energy efficiency in Government Office Buildings in Abuja. Andrea Verenini’s study on
urban regeneration in Portsmouth and Majid Pasha’s work on housing typologies in rice
fields in Iran align with the School’s ambition to expand studies in urban and landscape
design. Exploring aspects of architectural history we can refer to Line Nørskov Eriksen’s
research on the design methodology of Danish Architect Jørn Utzon and David Slater’s
exploration of the oeuvre of the American architect Alfred Lawrence Kocher.
With the move to the new Eldon West, our Research Degrees students have a dedicated
working space with access to a number of softwares and computer facilities.
Synergies with the other schools and the promotion of a vibrant research culture have
emerged and are key priorities for the year ahead.

COMPETITIONS
‘Festival des Cabanes 2013’ Competition
2013 was the 3rd edition of the ‘Festival des Cabanes’, a project which is organised every
3 years by the O.A.I. (‘Ordre des Architectes et des Ingénieurs-Conseils’ which is the
RIBA-equivalent for Luxembourg) and the S.N.J. (‘Service National de la Jeunesse’ which
is a Luxembourgish youth organisation) with the intention to stimulate creativity of young
people, promote the construction industry sector and give students the opportunity to
manifest their design skills and realise their own creations from concept to completion.
The project was separated into 2 competitions, one with the aim to construct 35
temporary huts (‘cabane temporaire’) and the other with the purpose of creating a bus
shelter (‘cabane durable’).
Along with my friend Tamara Kahn, who studied architecture at the University of Kent and
completed her Bachelor of Arts in 2013, I participated in the competition for the ‘cabane
durable’. This competition was an open call for architecture and engineering students
aged under 27 and asked of its participants to design a bus shelter for the nature reserve
‘Ellergronn’ in Esch/Alzette, a town in Luxembourg. The overall theme of the competition
was ‘work’, and the design should integrate well into its surroundings and have a
minimum life-span of 10 years. The budget for the construction was set at 10.000 euros.
Our 1st prize awarded design is inspired by mine cart tracks that give the impression
to arise of the ground and form the shelter, relating to the remains of the ore mining
industry of the 19th and 20th century that characterised the ‘Ellergronn’ region. The main
idea is to keep the view open towards the old mine entrance on site as well as to the
direction of the approaching bus, and to include next to a standard seating bench a leanon stand. As the site is entirely embedded within nature, we think that nature should and
will take back the structure of the bus shelter over time with the plants growing over the
extending ‘rails’. The chosen materials – steel and (larch) timber – are both closely tied to
the past and present of the region and hence fit perfectly into its surroundings.
The entire process was really exciting and educative, as we took our initial design
entry from concept design through to completion and learned much on the tasks of
an architects’ daily life. We had to produce all the technical drawings and detail the
specifications, meet with various people – such as the local authority, the blacksmith,
etc. – and supervise the works in the workshop and later on site, yet we had a qualified
architect at our side who offered constructive advice.
Festival Des Cabanes – Thierry Neu and Tamara Kahn 2013
After having graduated from the University of Portsmouth in June 2013 with a first-class
honours, I am currently working as a Part I architectural assistant at the Luxembourgish
practice ‘architecture + aménagement s.a.’ since August 2013 and am on a 12-month
placement before taking up my M.Arch studies in September 2014.

1. Motiv8, Portsmouth -
2. Eldon South Wing Café, UoP –
As a further follow on event from an earlier community based project with the local
charity Motiv8 this project aimed to further progress architectural and interior designs for
a new Motiv8 Gateway. The week long project created further collateral to be used for
the ‘Reaching Communities’ funding application.
In June 2013 the Project Office was approached by Nick Leach (Head of Catering
Services at UoP) to put together a design event for the potential Eldon South Wing Café.
The ambition of the six-day event was to work with Nick and his team by assisting with
the creation of a new coffee shop on the second floor of the existing Eldon South Wing.
Particular emphasis was places on proposing inspiring, creative and beautiful design
ideas to revitalise and reinvigorate this part of the Eldon campus.
BA2 Field Trip option provided by the Project Office – week long Design Workshop
event, May 2013
Twenty six BA2 Architecture and Interior Design students took part in the event and were
assisted in their work by Project Office team members and University staff members.
The event enabled the students to share their design ideas for the new Gateway facility
directly with the Motiv8 client body. This project represented a unique chance for the
participating students and staff to be involved with a ‘live’ project directly working with
real clients in a real site environment. It also gave the client the opportunity to work
closely with a young and imaginative student cohort to collect a series of stimulating
proposals using an alternative from of architectural practice and teaching methodology.
Design Charrette event July 2013
This design week gave Interior Design BA third year students the opportunity of working
with a real client on a project which is likely to go ahead and be built. As part of the
project the students and project team went on a field trip to visit Brighton and it’s lively
café culture. The week culminated in professional presentations of the work each student
group produced to the client.
Project Office – Project Motiv8
The Project Office is a Royal Institute of British
Architects chartered practice embedded
within the Portsmouth School of Architecture.
Originally established in November 2008, since
inception the practice has grown from strength
to strength working with students and staff from
across the University of Portsmouth campus
along with external organisations.
114
In the past six years, the Project Office has
completed a large number of projects for
regional charities, the Diocese of Portsmouth,
local authorities within Hampshire, private
clients and organisations and the University
of Portsmouth Estates Department. These
projects vary in scope and detail from fast paced
intensive student-led design workshops (termed
as ‘Design Charrettes’ within the Project Office)
to consultancy projects focusing on detailed
design and feasibility studies, production
information packages, site inspection and
supervision services. Underpinning all of these
activities and projects is a strong connection
to the core curriculum, academic, knowledge
transfer and research activities.
The 2013/2014 academic year has seen the
Project Office undertaking a large number of
student-led design charrettes and workshops
for ‘Live’ projects working with ‘Real’ clients
which involve undergraduate and postgraduate
students from the School of Architecture and
Interior Design.

3. UoP Sports Facilities, UoP –
4. Gosport High Street, Gosport -
Design Charrette event held June 2013
Consultancy Project – Urban Design, July 2013 onwards
The Project Office was asked by client Paul Tilley (Head of Sport and Recreation at
UoP) to assist with the creation of a master plan for the potential UoP Sports Facilities
development. The Sport and Recreation department at the University is looking to
develop its sports facilities and is preparing ideas and business cases to support that
aim. There is a major need for modern indoor facilities to replace/ update current sports
facilities, meet student demand and align the facilities with core UCAS competitors in
terms of quality and quantity of sports facilities.
The Project Office were approached by Gosport Borough Council to assist with the early
stages of re-development of the town’s high street. The ambition of this project was to
work with client, Lynda Dine (Gosport Borough Council) and her team to create a ‘Design
and Style Guide’ that can be used to strategically change and adapt the existing Gosport
High Street. In addition, this project involved the production of sketch design proposals
that could be used by staff at the Council, associated design consultants and tendering
contractors to realise the ideas suggested in the ‘Design and Style Guide’. This project
had to have a high level of design aspiration while at the same time being pragmatic and
cost effective; implementation of the suggested proposals was a key factor in the work
completed for the Council.
The Project Office put together a five-day design event with a selection of students
assisted by academics from the School of Architecture and the Project Office team to
work with the client brief to produce designs for the new facilities. This design event
gave the students the opportunity to work with a real client on a real project with a full
client presentation at the end of the week.
As part of the project the Project Office also completed a large amount of research along
with introducing the project as a public consultation in Gosport and producing technical
reports to assist with the tendering process for the project.

5. Eco House, East Meon, Hampshire
6. Guildhall, Portsmouth -
The Project Office was asked by Mr and Mrs Collett to assist them with the design of
a one-off Eco House for their eventual use. A two day design charrette was held to
begin the design process and start to form a feasibility study to eventually form part of
a planning application. The ambition of the event was to assist the client by proposing
inspiring, creative and beautiful design ideas to create a new build ‘Eco-home’ of
outstanding quality using sustainable materials and the latest building technologies.
The new home will be set within the curtilage of an existing site (Parsonage Barn,
belonging to the client) located near the village of East Meon within the South Downs
National Park.
The ambition of this student-led event is to assist Mr Andy Grays (Chief Executive Officer,
Portsmouth Cultural Trust) by proposing inspiring, creative and inspiring design ideas
to revitalise, redeem and reinvigorate a number of existing interior spaces within the
Portsmouth Guildhall. Students from Under Graduate Interior Design and Post Graduate
Interior Design and Architecture students were assisted by academic staff from the
School of Architecture and the Project Office team to look at three main areas within the
Guildhall; main auditorium, ground floor box office, reception and first floor lounge areas
and exhibition space.
Design Charrette October 2013.
This was a very sensitive design brief which was equally sensitively worked on by the
School of Architecture, Post Graduate Architecture and Interior Design students and
academic staff members alongside the Project Office. The project provided students with
the invaluable opportunity to work on a real and specialist project brief with a real client,
working at the project site along with camping and lecture at the nearby Sustainability
Centre. Their final presentations were given to a large audience consisting of the client,
academic staff and the local public – much akin to a real planning consultation.
Design Charrette November 2013
‘Our offer to the Project Office is to create some initial ideas which will excite both us, the Board and
our major stake-holders – Portsmouth City Council. In consultation with the University we will select
a small group of architects and designers to work enabling them to take their ideas forward and to
create an outline scheme which can then be used to inform all future works to the Guildhall.’

7. Eldon West Wing Studio Walls -
8. Library Café -
As part of the move over into the new Eldon West Wing, a competition was opened
up to all School of Architecture students to design ‘Studio Storage Walls’ for their new
studio spaces. The School secured funding to construct six highly visible storage walls/
space dividers with the winning competition entry forming the basis of the design.
The Project Office was approached by Nick Leach (Head of Catering Services at UoP), to
assist with the concept design and Sketches for a new larger café facility in the University
Library. Further to the Library extension built in 2007 the ground floor of the Library is to
be completely refurbished including a new expanded Café facility.
The competition brief required students to include the following in their designs; storage
for A1 models, ability to display a seventy inch touch screen monitor and computer,
act as a learning tool on the context of materials and construction techniques and be
aesthetically pleasing. Students had to submit drawings, 3D images and critical junction
details as part of their submissions. The winning group’s designs are now in the process
of being developed further by the Project Office team and Senior Lecturer Nick Hebden.
The new café will be open to all from 8am until midnight. The Project Office developed
the designs for the new café space working closely with the client and produced concept
sketches ready for the client to promote for the next stages of the project. Recently the
Project Office have been asked to produced perspective images of the new space by
Anne Burrill (Deputy Director of Marketing and Communications UoP).

9. Wymering Manor, Cosham -
Architectural Design (AD)
This year’s Project Office field trip option was open to the whole School of Architecture
and sixty students across all years and subjects signed up for the week long design
workshop event.
This special issue of Architectural Design, with Guest Editor Prof Lorraine Farrelly,
highlights how architecture needs to rise to the challenge of a demographic revolution.
As people sixty-five and older constitute an ever increasingly proportion of population in
most industrialized nations, the design of housing and other built provisions needs to be
rethought in order to accommodate this ever-expanding ageing population.
The ‘live’ project which was being developed this year was the re-invigorating of
Wymering Manor, the oldest recorded building in the Portsmouth area. The ambition
of this week long event was to work with Andrew Mason of the Wymering Manor Trust
(client) by assisting with the creation of inspirational, feasible and sensitive design
proposals for the revitalisation and preservation of the existing Wymering Manor.
Students were put into ten multi-talented groups and were assisted throughout the week
by the Project Office team, client and a number of academic staff.
How can far-reaching architectural solutions play a key part by creating sustainable cities
for the changing profile of the population, reducing models of dependency for care and
transport while creating opportunities for recreation, leisure and work? This issue reflects
on the population challenges facing Europe, Australia, North America, and Asia, offering
innovative responses to these problems on a practical and speculative level.
BA2 Field Trip option provided by the Project Office – week long Design Workshop
event, February 2014
The designs produced were all presented extremely professionally and enthusiastically
at the end of the week by the students to the client and members and friends of the
Wymering Manor trust as well as the Project Office team.
This provided the students with an invaluable experience of working on a ‘live’ project
for a real community spirited cause and provided them with the opportunity of acting as
professional designers for the week.
‘Designing for the Third Age’, April 2014.
Entry to the Wolfson Economics prize
The purpose of this government funded prize is to create a vision for a garden city of
the future. The project proposal was put forwards by Prof Lorraine Farrelly, working with
Radian Housing association, S333 Architects and the landowner at Welbourne new town
at Fraeham, Glynne Benge. The proposal suggested a new Garden City concept for this
new town project.
‘Animating Sustainable Community Renewal’
This is a collaboration with the Diocese of Portsmouth’s Council for Social Responsibility
developing the work we have undertaken over several years designing imaginative
proposals in collaboration with the local community for the redevelopment of church
buildings with a view to informing best practice on similar projects in the future across
a multi-faith client base. Francis Graves together with his colleagues, run postgraduate
design projects on this theme in 2008-2009, 2009-2010 and 2011- 2012 and are proposing
an option in 2014-2015 with a view to more rigorously capturing both the process and
outputs.

Looking east
An active collaboration between our School of Architecture and its opposite number
in the jewel-like city of Ljubljana, capital of Slovenia, has developed over time through
student group field study trips and individual student study and staff teaching
programmes.
Since gaining independence following the fall of Yugoslavia, the city has blossomed
as a cosmopolitan place for people, exactly as its most famous architect, Jose Plecnik
always intended. As with all his work in the early 20C, here it was about valuing ‘citizens’
– Ordinary people from all walks of life that make the city a true place of pride and
collaborative living.
Affirming a belief in the inestimable value of cross-cultural study and experience to our
students, in the ‘Emergent’ M.Arch studio, alongside existing activities, we are building
on this people-centred focus and our relationship with Ljubljana through joint studentled research into ‘dwelling’. Then, for next year – with Ljubljana’s help - a planned venture
further into the ‘Balkans’, to Sarajevo in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Looking east to understand.

No matter:
Theories and Practices of the Ephemeral in Architecture’, Ashgate, 2013
Dr Anastasia Karandinou published her new book in October 2013, with Ashgate.
In this book Karandinou argues that current interest in the ephemeral in contemporary
culture and architecture is related to the evolution of digital media; and that it is related
to the new ways of thinking about space and everyday situations that new media
enables. With sound and video recording devices now being embedded in everyday
gadgets and mobile phones, capturing sounds or ephemeral situations and events has
become an everyday habit.
New animation techniques allow designers to think about space through time, as they
are able to design dynamic and responsive spaces, as well as static spaces explored by
someone over time. Contemporary video games are no longer based on a simple visual
input and a keyboard; they now involve other senses, movement, and the response
of the whole body in space. This book therefore argues that the traditional binary
opposition between the sensuous and the digital is currently being reversed.
The University of Portsmouth and the Blackwells bookstore organized a book launch in
November 2013.

Sites of exchange: Materializing conversations
‘Sites of exchange: materialising conversations’, was a research-led exhibition which took
place between April 7 and May 13th as part of Space in the new Eldon gallery.
The project questions how acts of ‘doing’ inform research and interpretation.
The exhibition held conversations from different locations, Warp Scaffold was based
on research in Gujarat, India and alludes to current social changes taking place in the
country. Silent conversations was a material network of crafted conversations that were
made in Winchester’s Cathedral and archaeology archive.
The project used the month long exhibition to organically grow, form and shape new
conversations. In particular the exhibition opened up new exchanges with creative
writing, Dr Holly Howitt-Dring and cosmology, Dr Jane Greaves through engaging with

How many ways are there for a person to open a door?
Research on Nepal’s Narayanhiti Palace
An interdisciplinary project between Architecture and Sports Science; Kate Baker, Belinda
Mitchell and Dr Matt Dicks.
Bryony Whitmarsh, with 10 years experience with Museums, has developed a research
project which explores the relationship between material culture, memory and identity.
Her research project – leading to a PhD - focuses on Nepal’s Narayanhiti Palace, which
was the royal palace until 28 May 2008 when the end of the monarchy was declared in
Nepal. It is her contention that the Palace reveals as much about the Nepal of which
it forms a part as the Nepal it institutionalizes – the on-going transition from royal to
republican Nepal. Bryony Whitmarsh gives us some further information on her current
research project:
With this project we are investigating our bodily movement through space, the confines
that architecture provides and how that affects those movements. We have approached
this through an inter-disciplinary discussion between a sport scientist, architect and
interior designer/visual artist, to examine the many ways that there are to open a door.
We are interested in exploring how we walk through, understand and experience space.
The project examines our bodily engagement with architecture and how we can map and
measure it. The investigation is through an experiment set up in conjunction with sport
science, which set out to particularly focus on measuring the relationship between our
arm reach and door, leg movement, hand movement, foot movement and relationship of
body to door. We are using line and intersections of line, to interpret a corridor walk,
to engage with how people come together, connect, separate and how they negotiate
the fabric of the building. What do we gain or lose by not touching the building?
What happens when the door is automatic?
Research – Ways to open a door project –
Belinda Mitchell
We raise inter-disciplinary understandings of the body, the way that it is experienced
and understood. We aim to develop more effective ways of moving in space to create
healthy environments with places to stretch, to move beyond the linearity of the line and
to find ways to intersect with a building. The research will be presented at Southampton
University, Archaeology department, Buildings and Body Symposium in June and at the
Body and Space Conference at Middlesex University, in September.
Meeting Point; an interdisciplinary exchange between architecture,
dance and sports science.
A small group of staff and students worked with Alain Michard, a french dancer and
choreographer and director of Promenades Blanches. The workshop was funded
and developed by The Point, Eastleigh as part of Dansce Dialogues to establish
cross boarder partnerships. Belinda Mitchell, Kate Baker, Roger Tyrrell, Dr Anastasia

“My interests are in the relationships between political transformations and the processes under
which the Palace has been inhabited and the spatial transitions it has undergone. I have identified
three ‘moments’ to focus my research. Addressing the processes of inhabitation of the palace, they
are: its construction as a palace, as the site of the royal massacre and its recent transformation as a
museum.
On 26 February 2009 the Gaurishankar doors swung open to admit ordinary citizens into Nepal’s
Narayanhiti Palace, marking its transformation from royal residence to Palace Museum. Its opening
was announced on May 28 2008, following the end of a ten-year internal conflict (jan yuddha
or ‘People’s War’), as Nepal was declared a Federal Republic and the 239 year-old monarchy
was ended. I argue that the Palace Museum does more than mark the transition of Nepal from
a monarchy to a republic; it embodies a paradox - the need to sever the royal past from the
‘republican’ present, yet maintain a sense of connection with the culture from which the nation’s
identity has been derived
A part of my recent fieldwork in Nepal (July 2013) has been an examination of the debates
surrounding the Ganatantra Smarak (republic memorial) currently being built in the NE corner of
the Narayanhiti site and how these reflect the construction of national identity against a backdrop
of political turmoil. Articles in the Nepali press reveal that the memorial is the source of debate
and confusion, both in terms of its location and design or even whether a memorial is the right
course of action. It is apparent that the various interested (political) parties cannot agree on what
the proper tone or overarching narrative should be. The constant re-positioning (the foundation
stone of the memorial has been laid 4 times since 2009) and adjustment of the Ganatantra Smarak
design demonstrates confusion over the construction of a new nation identity, for example, tensions
between modernist notions of a unified nation-state and the reality of an ethnically diverse nation.”

Green Wedges
List of recent research projects and publications
One of Dr Fabiano Lemes’s current research projects aims to uncover the history of the
green wedges idea in Britain and investigates its contemporary uses in networks of green
space. The project looks into how the idea of the green wedge emerged alongside that
of the green belt in planning debates, how it developed throughout the first half of the
twentieth century, and its recent appropriations in green infrastructure projects.
Fabiano published a paper at the London Society Journal exploring how this idea was
put forward in a number of plans for London (http://eprints.port.ac.uk/13417/). His latest
paper ‘Green wedges: origins and development in Britain’ (http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/0
2665433.2013.824369) analyses the history of green wedges in Britain from their origins
in the first decade of the twentieth century up until the outbreak of the Second World
War. Often neglected by the literature in favour of the greenbelt, the green wedge
was equally at the forefront of the minds of planners debating urban growth and the
provision of open spaces for modern cities.
2012:
Recently, Dr Fabiano Lemes has been interviewed by the BBC on his views about the
creation of a new garden city in the UK. His comments can be seen here:

Manufacturing Utopia
Dr Anastasia Karandinou was an invited speaker in the international symposium
‘Manufacturing Utopia’, organized by the Manchester School of Architecture in May
2014. Invited speakers included renowned architect and academic Odile Decq, architect
and writer Paul Shepheard, Senior Curator of MAXXI Pippo Ciorra, writer John Grindrod
and the interactive designers of the ‘White Paper’ games. The aim of the symposium was
to discuss the relationship between the myths and implications of utopian visions, and
the materiality and pragmatic dimension of contemporary urban environments.

Collaborative projects:
Travel is one of the richest forms of education. We learn by exploring and experiencing
the world around us. Many of the world’s architects and designers have been drawn
to travel as a way to challenge how they view the world and ultimately influence their
approach to design.
Collaborative projects this year have encouraged our students to join staff on intensive
projects or workshops for 1 – 2 weeks. This year the school was invitation to participate in
the “ROCK-IT’ project in Pavia, Italy and continue our long established partnership with
Aalborg School of Architecture in Denmark.
The School has a number of longstanding European partnerships all with top ranking
Schools of Architecture and design. These partnerships provide opportunities for
students and staff to exchange and collaborate across Europe.
‘ROCK – IT’
International Design Workshop, Pavia, Italy
Erasmus is the European Commission’s educational exchange program ‘life long
learning’, which enables students to study or work abroad as part of their degree.
The intensive 2 weeks of design hosted by the University of Pavia was an outstanding
opportunity for our students to work together with students and staff from Pavia and
Bologna (Italy), A Coruna (Spain), Horsens (Denmark) and Opole (Poland).
Every year the scheme supports and funds students and staff to collaborate and
exchange with institutions across Europe and provide work opportunities in Europe.
The event was designed to rethink the seaplane base (designed by Giuseppe Pagano
in 1925) as a new collective place for the city of Pavia. The event was an opportunity
for cultural debate on the reuse of the modern, which will be the theme of the next
architectural “Biennale di Venezia” directed by Rem Koolhass. The workshop was
organized by Prof. Carlo Berizzi of the Master Degree in Building Engineering and
Architecture and concluded with a public presentation of projects and an exhibition.
(Link: www-5.unipv.it/carlista/workshop/rock-it/homepage.htm)
This year we have expanded student and staff opportunities beyond exchange
possibilities with the development of a work placement scheme and school participation
in a range of collaborative project.

Work placements:
The work placement scheme supports students between year 2 & 3 from both
Architecture and Interior Design to work in Europe over the summer period. During the
summer of 2013, 9 students have secured placements across Europe from Poland to
Greece in variety of architecture and design practices in preparation for the students
final year of study. During their time they worked on all time of project work from
participating in exhibitions, site visits, competitions and everyday office life.
The following students participated in placements:

STAFF
The Portsmouth Architecture Student Society (PASS) is the student-led society, which
provides a forum for inspiration, discussion and debate as well as encouraging
networking between students and visiting practitioners.
This year has continued the strong engagement with practitioners with a variety of
regional and national practices discussing their work and methods. In some instances
this has provided the opportunity for alumni students such as Knox Bhavan to return to
Portsmouth and present to the current cohort of students.
In addition to this there have been a wide variety of activities such as film screenings and
20/20 presentations, which have encouraged participation from both staff and students.
It is hoped that there will be more of this type of events in the future to promote
engagement with the wider faculty.

The success of the society is based on the participation of all students but especially the
hard work of the committee which this year covers a wide range of students from both
Architecture and Interior Design.
