Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The fascinating first-ever full account of the remarkable reconstruction of the Moroccan coastal city of Agadir following the 1960 earthquake. On February 29, 1960, a catastrophic earthquake devastated the Moroccan coastal city of Agadir, erasing it almost entirely and killing a third of its population. The world was shocked and very quickly large amounts of international aid arrived. Following an emotional speech by King Mohammed V, the reconstruction of Agadir was also an undertaking of national and international solidarity. A new and unprecedented process of urban construction was developed that allowed many architects - national and international - to simultaneously design the new city. The result of this joint effort was astounding. In a very short time, the new Agadir rose from the ashes. The best Moroccan and international architects experimented with novel housing typologies, which mediated between ultramodern and vernacular ways of dwelling, complemented by innovative public structures, such as schools, dispensaries and cinemas. All of these combined into an original urban reality: a modern Afropolis. This book for the first time thoroughly explores the forgotten tale of Agadir's reconstruction. It features previously unpublished archival documents and striking period photographs, as well as new plans and contemporary images by London-based photographer and academic David Grandorge, alongside scholarly essays by architects and architecture historians Tom Avermaete, Laure Augereau, Irina Davidovici, Janina Gosseye, Cathelijne Nuijsink, Hans Teerds, and Maxime Zaugg. A three-part interview with Lachsen Roussafi, who witnessed the 1960 earthquake as a student, rounds out this tantalising narration of the international architectural adventure of rebuilding Agadir as the modern Afropolis. AUTHORS: Tom Avermaete is Full Professor for the History and Theory of Urban Design at ETH Zurich's Institute Institute for the History and Theory of Architecture (Institute gta). Maxime Zaugg is an architect and researcher and currently pursues his PhD at the Chair of the History and Theory of Urban Design at ETH Zurich's Institute Institute for the History and Theory of Architecture (Institute gta).

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - On February 29, 1960, a catastrophic earthquake devastated the Moroccan coastal city of Agadir, erasing it almost entirely and killing a third of its population. The world was shocked, and very quickly large amounts of international aid arrived. Following an emotional speech by King Mohammed V, the reconstruction of Agadir also turned into an undertaking of national and international solidarity. A new and unprecedented process of urban construction was developed that allowed many architects-national and international-to simultaneously design the new city. The result of this joint effort was astounding. In a very short time, the new Agadir rose from the ashes. The best Moroccan and international architects experimented with novel housing typologies, which mediated between ultramodern and vernacular ways of dwelling, complemented by innovative public structures, such as schools, dispensaries, and cinemas.

A three-part interview with Lahsen Roussafi, who witnessed the 1960 earthquake as a student, rounds out this tantalizing narration of the international architectural adventure of rebuilding Agadir as the modern Afropolis.; Am 29. Februar 1960 verwüstete ein katastrophales Erdbeben die marokkanische Küstenstadt Agadir, bei dem fast ein Drittel der Bevölkerung ihr Leben verlor. Die Welt war fassungslos, und der Wiederaufbau von Agadir wurde zu einem beispiellosen Unternehmen internationaler Solidarität. Ein neu entwickelter städtebaulicher Prozess ermöglichte es zahlreichen Architekten aus Marokko und der ganzen Welt, simultan an der Planung der neuen Stadt zu arbeiten. Sie experimentierten mit Wohntypologien, die zwischen neuartigen und traditionellen Wohnformen vermittelten, ergänzt durch eine innovative öffentliche Infrastruktur. Das Ergebnis war eine erstaunliche neue urbane Realität: eine moderne Afropolis. Dieses englischsprachige Buch untersucht zum ersten Mal umfassend die vergessene Geschichte von Agadirs Wiederaufbau. Es präsentiert bisher unveröffentlichte Archivdokumente und Fotografien, wie auch neu erstellte Pläne und zeitgenössische Bilder des Londoner Fotografen David Grandorge. Essays von Architektinnen und Architekturhistorikern ergründen den architekturhistorischen und urbanistischen Hintergrund der Unternehmung. Ein dreiteiliges Interview mit Lahsen Roussafi, der das Erdbeben als Student miterlebte, rundet diese spannende Erzählung des Baus der modernen Afropolis ab.…
