PROBLEMS Evaluation of the Use of Natural Potential for Planning of Green Infrastructure of Selected Housing Estates in Wrocław Ocena wykorzystania przyrodniczego potencjału w planowaniu zielonej infrastruktury na obszarze wybranych osiedli Wrocławia Justyna Rubaszek DOI:10.30825/5.ak.162.2019.61.4 SUMMARYThe article discusses the issue of planning green infrastructure on a local scale – the scale of a housing estate on the basis of the use of existing natural potential. The sites selected for the research are greenery zones with small watercourses and/or reservoirs located within the areas of four dynamically developing housing estates in Wrocław, which are Polanowice-PoświętneLigota, Maślice, Muchobór Wielki and Krzyki-Partynice. The aim of the analyses was to show whether and to what extent the areas with natural potential were included in the development plans of housing estates and to determine the indications as to further development and management of these zones in accordance with the concept of green infrastructure. The obtained results show a different degree of integration of the existing elements and natural systems into the planned structure of the housing estates: from their preservation and use for the construction of a green network to their liquidation for the benefit of new buildings and road infrastructure. The presented results indicate that: (1) the factor determining the preservation of the natural potential of the studied areas was primarily the need to plan parks of recreational and leisure function within the tissue of the housing estates; (2) the maintenance of communication and spatial continuity of the natural systems resulted from appropriate records at the level of planning documents, while the lack of such records resulted in the liquidation or reduction of the biologically active area; (3) the aspect of multifunctionality of the particular areas was in all the studied cases limited to one function – recreation and leisure. What is also significant is that none of the areas has been developed integrally with the buildings and infrastructure under construction, which proves the traditional approach to planning and managing green areas in the city – a complementary approach rather than an equal one in relation to other elements of the urban structure. In terms of indications as to the future development of individual areas, the most important was the strengthening of the regulatory services provided by them, mainly through the use of the preserved watercourses, ditches and/or reservoirs in order to build a system for the pro-ecological management of rainwater and snowmelt collected from built-up areas. PRESENTATIONS Use of Agent-Based Modelling as a Tool for Determining Guidelines in the Process of Revitalization of Large Housing Estates Wykorzystanie modelu agentowego do określenia wytycznych reiwtalizacji wielkich osiedli blokowych Szymon Mieszkowski DOI:10.30825/5.ak.163.2019.61.4 SUMMARYLarge housing estates are inseparable elements of the landscape of every Polish city. For many years, at every administrative level and in the media, there has been a heated debate about the future of the buildings made from large concrete panels. However, the problem of revitalization of these so-called “sink-estates” has not been addressed comprehensively. The first post-war housing estates are inevitably approaching the end of their intended life span and, unfortunately, thus far a project to extensively test and monitor these housing estates has not yet been established. Currently, attention is focused on analysing the technical condition of the buildings, while the most important issue, i.e. their present and future residents, is ignored. Collecting the necessary data on large residential estates is the first, extremely important step towards understanding the processes taking place in Polish cities. Agent-based modelling, which utilises both the decision-making and the uniqueness of individuals and households, enables a detailed analysis of bottom-up processes that naturally occur in the local community. Using one of Wroclaw’s housing estates, Popowice, as an example, available statistical data were systematised and simulations were carried out to predict the natural, spontaneous development of the estate. The simulations reflect the dynamics of bottom-up processes within the local population that have a direct impact on the scale of migration as well as the socio-demographic polarization of the local community. Intentionally, the top-down approach hasn’t been implemented in order to allow identification and analysis of self-modifying changes. In simulations, trends are sought only based on the autonomy of individual people. Strengthening the desirable and limiting the negative processes can play a key role in the guideline-setting process, ultimately allowing for an optimal model for the revitalization of large housing estates to be created. The Settlements Established by the Moravian Church (Brothers) in Lower Silesia Osady Herrnhutów na Dolnym Śląsku Justyna Jaworek-Jakubska Marek Staffa DOI:10.30825/5.ak.164.2019.61.4 SUMMARYDuring the Counter-Reformation, Silesia became the refuge for numerous groups of Bohemian Protestants, especially Orthodox ones, such as the Moravian Church (Moravian Brothers, Unitas Fratrum). They settled in areas whose owners were favourably disposed towards them. While the Counter-Reformation progressed, they were increasingly pushed away westwards, towards Saxony. The biggest group reached Berthelsdorf in Lusatia, where it set up a settlement called Herrnhut within the estate o Nicolas Ludwig, Count von Zinzendorf. Zinzendorf, providing Herrnhut with financial and spiritual care, was striving to establish a supradenominational community from the very beginning. The congregation adopted an ascetic, religious lifestyle based on strictly defined rules, which was reflected in the development and urban layout of the settlement. After 1730, because of political and religious difficulties, the community began to set up new settlements outside Saxony (in Europe, North America and the Far East) modelled after Herrnhut. Three settlements were established under Zinzendorf’s influence in Silesia: in Piława Górna and in Kruszyn near Bolesławiec (1743), and in Pawłowiczki near Koźle (1750). All were formed on the same principles and a nearly identical layout to that of Herrnhut. All received similar names: Piława – Gnadenfrei, Kruszyn – Gnadenberg, and Pawłowiczki – Gnadenfeld. FORUM Cooperation between Students of Landscape Architecture and Physiotherapy In the Design of Effective Therapeutic Spaces Współpraca studentów architektury krajobrazu i fizjoterapii przy projektowaniu efektywnych przestrzeni terapeutycznych Kamila Adamczyk-Mucha Lucyna Górska-Kłęk DOI:10.30825/5.ak.165.2019.61.4 SUMMARYIn many countries, green care is one of the preventive and pro-health strategies. Positive impact of green areas refers not only to their natural and aesthetic values, but also to health, social and economic benefits. There are many forms of therapy that use the positive influence of the natural environment on persons included in the definition of “green care”, e.g. hydrotherapy, sylvotherapy or terrain therapy. Interdisciplinary cooperation, including designers and therapeutic programme developers, is essential for the development of places that fully exploit their therapeutic potential. The goal of this work is to present an innovative (experimental) form of team cooperation between students of landscape architects and physiotherapy within the framework of interdisciplinary workshops leading to an improved common understanding of the scope of activities of landscape architects and physiotherapists and their joint work for the arrangement of various therapeutic spaces related to “green care”, serving to improve the health of their users. Workshops offer the opportunity to develop design solutions with a much higher utility value, which could not have been achieved without interdisciplinary cooperation. The possibility of verifying the design concept with the users of the space is an important didactic element, as well as establishing a productive partnership in future professional work, both for landscape architects and physiotherapists, providing the opportunity for dialogue and co-creation of good Polish school of “green care”.
