questions...

Points of interest:

This is the main question that has to be answered and how the interventions are going to inform these questions raised.
- Spatial developments
- Transformations, gentrifications, declinations, the in-between spaces
- Working with the in-between
- Multiple urban nodes in the islands
- 'Network' islands

How are we going to intervene in the urban landscape? What is the position that is taken by us? Strengthening the inverse space, islands, how to connect the physical fragmentation? How these bottom up strategies can re-invent existing usages. The first idea is the formation of a Spatial Concept, which is the visual expression of the desired structure. For example:
- Centralization or decentralization
- The future of the city
- Formation and change
- Dealing with fragmentation

So with these options where exactly do we intervene such that it informs a future scenario or project? If the spatial concept is clear then the intervention can easily implement this desire. The bottom up involvement should inform the hypothesis that is made. The scenarios that are possible are:
- Is the archipelago activity a good thing
- Connections of the islands
- Networks between these fragmented spaces

Tallinn can be looked at probably in the below stated ways:
- Historic city center- pedestrian city
- The harbor development
- Residential development
- Outer periphery

Can each of these functions independently, creating or strengthening island fabric or is it possible to form an integrated metropolis? If there is physical interaction between the fragments, then there is possibility of intergration. Or the opposite happens then the city becomes a mosaic of sub-cultures or sub-cities. So where do these urban spatial model lead to?
- Physical structures and landscapes
- Create recreational networks
- Center vs. periphery
- Formation of a non-physical space
- Sustainability?

Each of the interventions has to have causality, an effect to inform. To define the disposition of the intervention, to reason the intention behind it.


INTERVENTIONS:

Harbor Tour:

With the increasing number of competitions that are held on the cost, is there a possibility of exhibiting these competitions as a part of the tour? The plans for the coastline are continuously changed how can these be depicted. Can this be integrated into the tour?

Bordering of the old town:

As stated before there is no point over doing what has been done before. If instead we play with the fact of the loss and not try an educate. If creation of a counter space in the Old city, for example a fruit and vegetable store, as regular day activity is introduced, relates to the loss of the old city as a part of the city fabric for the residents.

In between tour:

This really may have possibility, if we could engage with them. If that is not a possibility what is the relevance of the tour? How can we see the potentials of the in-between through a tour? is there a way that we can combine the dining into this? Moving dinners through the in-between? To quantify the space usage. The re-programming of the in-between spaces through temporary reactivation of spaces, this can be tested.
