From We Make Money Not Art:

Biennale of Architecture - The Danish pavilion

29 October 2006 Regine architecture green venice biennale

One of my favourite pavilions at the Venice Biennale was the Danish one. Its design is all pop, flashy and fun (just as i like them), its central themes (China and sustainability) are certainly very trendy these days but its approach is everything but superficial.

The Danish Pavilion, called CO-EVOLUTION, is a joint project between Danish architects and university students and professors in China who reflected on the question: How to improve people’s living conditions without exhausting the very resources needed to sustain a better life?

Within the next 20 years, some 400 million Chinese citizens are expected to join the global urbanization race and the Chinese government plans to create better living conditions for its 1.3 billion-strong population. The rapid urbanization processes currently underway in China are increasing consumption of natural resources, putting tremendous pressure on the environment.

The teams came up with four ideas for dealing with sustainability issues in four major chinese cities. My favourites:

1. Chongqing, the biggest municipality in the world, is undergoing high-speed urban development with 1,200,000 people relocating to the city every year.

COBE and Chongqing University proposed a “Green” Central Business District that features inhabited "magic" mountains. The mountain-peaks match the high density centres, while the mountains lower reaches resemble traditional Chinese neighbourhoods. The valleys are green open spaces accommodating a system treating wastewater and generating renewable energy.

The inhabited mountains will reduce energy consumption by supporting passive cooling in summer and passive heating in winter. They are interconnected by bicycle and pedestrian paths, and an efficient public transport system.

2. In order to ease the pressure on the city of Shanghai, the local government is planning a number of sub-cities around its periphery.

Shanghai SubCity, by EFFEKT and Tongji University, is a proposal for the suburban district Jiading, next to Shanghai’s brand new Formula 1-track. The project suggests a dense SubCity cluster combining urban and natural qualities. It would be shaped to resemble a giant ‘Che’, the Chinese word for car. The green eco-park surrounding the city serves both as a leisure park and an eco-system providing the inhabitants with renewable energy, water and recreational areas. At the same time the park works like a vast geo-thermal energy plant heating the city during winter and cooling it in the summer. This will cover the 75% of total energy consumption in buildings which is currently used on heating and cooling.

Curator and architect Henrik Valeur.

Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://viagra.wilantion.ru]Viagra 100mg pills[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.

As we all know, looks can be deceiving, so I
decided to try out the question tool for myself. If the executives
promise high traffic then understand you are talking with a non-SEO

list as they perceive those to be more relevant to
the query. SEO (search engine optimization) and keyword
density are terms that scare many a writer who want to write for the internet.
