The need of a testing ground
An experimental housing group must be built
to embrace a number of houses of different types as well as all essential
constructions needed for serving a community as a collective-living basis. This
“experimental group” must be large enough to include all the buildings
necessary for a careful study of the essential problems of a normal community.
At
the end of the first building period we should have a communal unit embracing
both primitive shelters and a higher development of the same. After the first “building
period” this laboratory group will be turned over as dwellings for families and
individuals to serve as a living centre for refugees. In this way the
laboratory field then begins to fulfill its task directly to humanity.
During
the second phase or “dwelling period” the field will be kept under scientific
observation while further developments will be watched. And the results of
observation of this period, like those of the “building period”, will be
published and distributed for academic and scientific use.
The organization
If really good result are to be obtained
this research work must be the product of a world-wide organization working in
many different countries, under many different conditions, but with its centre
in an individualized and scientifically progressive country, for example, the
United States.
Such
an organization must be politically independent and must have no connection
with local commercial building enterprises. It must be free to cooperate with
any local building activities of a suitable character in a given location. The
main purpose of such an organization is to be able to give real aid in an
emergency completely independent of local conditions, just as the Red Cross
aims at doing. But at the same time this organization must have a creative end.
Its aim is not merely to alleviate temporary sufferings, but beyond that to
work out of the opportunity provided it by the present crisis, new forms for
normal peacetime housing – forms that will have a more profoundly humane and
scientific justification.
To
achieve the proper results the organization and its subsequent research work
must be directed, or at any rate supervised, by an American university or
technical institute where technical and scientific faculties are available and
can collaborate. This is important because the planning, supervision and
observation of the experimental and research work in the field and the
combination and analysis cannot be satisfactorily effected without the aid of
various scientific and technical groups or experts.
A
centre for the collection of the date obtained must be located in this same
university or technical institute in the form of an “Institute for
Architectural Research”. The parent institute will have to deal only with
technical and humanitarian issues – not with financial problems.
The
institute will be primarily a scientific centre where all results obtained
through the fieldwork are collected, analysed and published. The actual
research
