Urben-Imbeault, Tamara. "Vertical gardening in a northern city; speculations for Winnipeg." Land 8 - Landscape Architecture Network, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/1993/30769.

Abstract:
This practicum is a reference for vertical gardeners in cold climates. Winnipeg, Manitoba is explored, however findings may be applied to other cities in similar climates. First, the history of vertical gardening is discussed, then the types of vertical gardens currently on the market are described. These can be classified into two categories: soil bearing or non-soil bearing. Most designs are modular pre-planted systems that can be attached to any wall, as long as it satisfies the structural requirements recommended by the manufacturer. The benefits of vertical gardening have been shown to be

Abstract:
This thesis advances a proposition that designers of exemplary industrial buildings adopt design heuristics based on evolving conceptual prototypes. The detail design priorities and formal expressions may vary, but the essential structure of their design solution search patterns should show a high degree of commonality. This commonality is based on the balance between rational and intuitive strategies for design decision making. Therefore it is the central objective of this thesis to demonstrate that a pattern between these two cognitive approaches to design thinking occurs across the cases in

Abstract:
Too often, buildings do not correspond to the original design aspirations of designers. This PhD project aims to investigate whether or not buildings branded as exhibiting ‘design excellence’ perform well in practice, focusing on the quality of the indoor environment and the satisfaction of occupants. It also intends to explore how to ensure that buildings with design quality achieve good performance in use. Buildings which won reputable design awards are assumed as exhibiting design excellence acknowledged by the architectural profession. With the need for sustainable schools with design qual

Yabe, Yoshihiro. "Urban fragmentation in Winnipeg." 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/1993/5054.

Full text
Abstract:
Winnipeg is a spatially, culturally, psychologically and visually fragmented city, particularly due to the vehicular-oriented growth which has engendered segmented land-use, dismantled walkable networks and provoked disconnection between culture and nature as well as within nature itself. In particular, the displacement of daily life from the complex web of interrelationships in ecosystems, which are essentially the mechanisms supporting our existence, should be the primary concern of urban design. In order to resolve this critical issue, this practicum will isolate and examine a problematic s

Maton, Timothy. "Race mindedness in the physical architecture of Winnipeg's former civic auditorium." 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/1993/31107.

Full text
Abstract:
Centred on the architecture of the Winnipeg Civic Auditorium, this thesis tangentially investigates the presence of Anglo-Saxon race mindedness in a place civic planners call the metropolitan centre of North America (Watt, 1932). The introduction situates the building tangentially in Manitoba's history. By thinking about the Civic Auditorium in a tangential manner I aim to attack the linear and sequential framework found in Eurocentric historical accounts. Doing this, my thesis criticises western architectural history and welcomes Indigenous reinterpretations of civic planning and urban aes

Abstract:
The purpose of this practicum is to evaluate current standards for Winnipeg’s high school athletic field development, and suggest alternatives to conventional methods. This document is structured to support the argument of developing athletic fields to not only satisfy the needs of the school, but the needs of the surrounding community as well. Using active transportation principles as a guide, this practicum provides the opportunity to improve connectivity and circulation within an established Winnipeg neighbourhood. Furthermore, active transportation provides the framework to support a great

Kost, Jessica. "Caring for caregivers: the design of an independent hospice facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba." 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/1993/23142.

Full text
Abstract:
Within a hospice environment, informal caregiving at the end of life can be a physically, psychologically, psychosocially and spiritually challenging experience, where the health and well-being of informal caregivers directly impacts the quality of end-of-life care of the resident. Inspired by a personal experience within palliative care, this practicum project focuses on how the design of an independent hospice facility can support the needs of informal caregivers in the delivery of palliative care. This holistic approach to palliative design integrates the overarching principles of healthy a

Full text
Abstract:
A non-place is understood to be “a space which cannot be defined as relational, or historical, or concerned with identity“ (Augé, 1995, pp. 77-78). In the age of globalization, these spaces are becoming increasingly common, with roads being one of the most homogenized conceptions resulting from said movement. The travelling experience, however, is a significant element of the lived experience and contributes to the understanding of human existence. Therefore, it is important to evaluate how landscape architecture can be utilized to establish a sense of place in these oft overlooked spaces. Thr

Abstract:
In the age of an overworked society, struggling to emotionally connect, play is essential. Ludic Landscapes, explores the reenchantment of undervalued landscapes, in particular the industrial site of the Canadian Pacific Railway yards in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. If carnivals are landscapes devoted to play, as rail yards are landscapes devoted to work and industry, what happens when play is brought into a landscape of work? This practicum examines how ludic activities can be integrated into a landscape previously devoted to work - resulting in a reenchantment of an industr
