Scharnhauser Parkis a redevelooment scheme OCOL]
on the siteof a formermilitarybarracks.The
oooc

north-east boundaryof the site is a sweeping
curve- determinedby the new rapidtransit
lightrailwayline.Thedesignfor thisnew
schooloriginatedfroma competition. The oooo
curvingboundaryis integratedin the outside ocoo
facilitiesof the schooland the structuresclear-
ly followthe gridof the development plan. @
The schoolbuildingitself,withthreestoreysin
the southand two in the north,is a simpletwin
parallelblocksystemwith a central,longitud-
inalcirculation zone,whichis brokenup by the
singleflightsof stairsof fair-faceconcreteand
the circularrooflights.The brightupperfloor
benefitsfromthe rooflightsin the V-shaped
roof,whichlikethe stairsfollowsthe longitud- :_::'
inalaxis.Thewindowsto the classroomsare
no largerthan is necessaryto admitsufficient
daylight.Thisis botha contribution to thrifty
and energy-efficient construction, and this sim-
ple,strictdesignrule leadsto a clearlydefined
interfacebetweeninteriorand exterior.For
reasonsof cost,an inexpensive brickfired in a
circularkilnwas chosenwhoseedgesare not
so sharpand whosecolourcan varyfrom light
brownto lightred.Duringbricklaying, attention
was givento producingwidejointsfinishedin
one operationwiththe bricklaying. The sand-
colouredmoftarwas deliberately"smeared"
almostamateurishly, whichresultedin a rough,
coarsesurfacefinish.Thistexturewas contin-
ued internallyalongthe corridors;merelyat the
entrancesto the classroomswas this surface
somewhat"improved".Thereis a largeschool-
yard betweenthe mainbuildingand the sports
hall,terracedto followthe slopeof the land.
Thisresultedin a closeharmony,partlybrought
aboutby the homogeneity of the material.

"Architecture thatcreatesthetown."ErnstGisel's
workin Fellbachcouldbe viewedin thislight.
The prosperoustownof Fellbachwith its fast-
growingpopulationand the usualoutgrowths
of the 1950sand 1960s,alsonotunknownin
othertowns,was lookingfor a nucleus.The
areaaroundthe Lutheranchurch,once shield-

centreof the town.The briefwas to "create, s c a l e1 : 7 5 0
togetherwith a marketplace, not onlya centre
for the localauthoritybut alsoa livelyzone
whichwouldbe frequentedby the citizens".
Thejury choseGisel'sdesignbecauseof its
"agreeablematter-of-factness". Wellstruc-
tured,clearlyarranged,decisivein its lan-
guage,ErnstGisel'ssolutionmakesexcellent
useof boththe internaland externalspacesof
this urbannode,clarifyingand structuringthe
outercontours.The configuration of the inner
courtyardswiththeirsmallalleywaysand the
squarein frontof the town hallthemselvespro-
videa highurbanquality.
It seemeda naturalchoiceto opt for a twin-leaf
masonryconstruction with a 240 mm load-
bearingouterleaf.However,the thicknessof
the thermalinsulationusedwouldthesedays
no longersatisfythe statutoryrequirements.
The buildingexploitsthe advantagesof a self-
supportingmasonrywallto the full: lesenes,
corbelsand columnsin realmasonrybond,
robustdetailingat the windowreveals,plus
masonrystairsand semicircular arches.
The masonryis complemented by natural
stonefor the windowsillsand lintelsas well as
for the clearlydifferentiatedplinth.
Designedin an age of flourishing post-
modernism, the architecthascreatedan authen-
tic settingwithoutsuperfluous commentswhich,
owingto its internaland externalspatialquali-
ties,its correctuseof the materialsand atten-
tionto detail,has lostnothingof its topicality. ill

Since1985a generalplan has beenin force
for all newlyerectedbuildingson the new cam-
pus of the University
m-il
of Aveiro.Oneof the
primeconsiderations was to limitthe choiceof
architect,if feasible,to membersof the "Pot1o
School"in orderto givethe buildingsby differ-
ent architectsan innerarchitectural coherency.
The effectof this strategyis thatthe campusis
now also a showcasefor Porto'smost notable
architects. EEEE
