Proposing Strategies

  • 1. TIME: The condition between the two communities is changing

based on the time development of the politics. The edge is continuously changing based on the relation of the two communities.

  • 2. UNKNOWN: The political condition of 2050 is unknown in
  • advance. The proposal needs to serve all 3 possible scenarios:

Nicosia 2050

Forty, A. (2013). Words and buildings. London: Thames & Hudson.

Scenario 1: Re-unification of the two sides and abolishment of the buffer zone Scenario 2: Division continues but the relation of the two communities is calming down allowing the urban environment to intervene the buffer zone Scenario 3: The conflict between the two communities is becoming stronger making the United Nations to push the edge

  • f the buffer zone in the urban environment

“Against the presumption that all parts of a building should be destined for specific uses, [...] ‘flexibility’ offered hope [...] by introducing the parameters of time and unknown.” Adrian Forty

“In any example of flexibility it is important to recognize who has the authority and knowledge to change a space.” Jonathan Hill

  • 3. AUTHORITY IN CHANGES: 2 groups of users:
  • A. citizens and military [the users of the urban

environment]

  • B. United Nations [the users of the buffer zone]

Nicosia 2050

Depending the conditions of the politics the authority of transforming the buffer zone changes: Scenario 1 – authority to the user group A Scenario 2 – a negotiation between the user groups A + B Scenario 3 – authority to the user group B
