Public space is usually conceived as a sort of ?clearing in the forest?, a somewhat negative-space on the highly densified urban tissue. We shall not miss, however, some proposals hitherto not fully developed and which parted precisely from the opposite idea: Increasing of scale, density and complexity as the starting point for the creation and definition of urban public space. The Hauptstadt-Berlin competition (1958) offered a key opportunity to check the actual status and ideas on the city and its planning. Participants should propose a new administrative, financial and commercial centre for the city?s historic core (almost completely destroyed after WW2) to be developed in a future re-united city. While most of the entries (including the winner team of Spengelin, Eggelin & Pempelfort) attached themselves somehow to the CIAM principles, those of Hans Scharoun and Alison & Peter Smithson (A+PS), awarded 2nd and 3rd prize respectively, proposed alternative schemes based on completely new and different conceptions, to some extent utopic, but whose ideas deserve a further study. | |
