TY - THES A1 - Nönnig, Jörg Rainer T1 - ARCHITEKTUR, SPRACHE, KOMPLEXITÄT : Acht Essays zur Architekturepistemologie T1 - ARCHITECTURE, LANGUAGE, COMPLEXITY : Eight Essays on Architectural Epistemology N2 - Komplexität ist ein genuin architektonisches Problem. Der Begriff von Architektur als einer universellen Praxis bzw. ganzheitlichen Erkenntnisweise enthält bereits im Kern den Begriff 'Komplexität'. Beide Konzepte fallen weithin zusammen – Architektur kann damit als spezifische Denkform des Komplexen betrachtet werden. Das in der Arbeit aufgezeigte Dilemma besteht darin, dass der modernen Architektur ihr ursprünglicher Gestaltungsgegenstand – Komplexität – abhanden gekommen ist: 'Nönnig dekonstruiert zu Recht die hoch aggregierten Begriffe des Raumes und des Entwurfs. Die gesamte Arbeit zeigt, dass die modernen Beschreibungsformen von Komplexität gerade nicht in der Architektur entwickelt sind.' (Prof. Gerd Zimmermann, Weimar). Um dieses Defizit zu beheben und Architektur als eigenständige Wissenstechnik ('Technoepisteme') zu etablieren, wird ausgehend von spezifischen 'Praxis- und Diskursdefiziten' ein Theorieszenario entwickelt, mit dem und in dem Architektur sich als komplexe Wissensform verwirklicht (u.a. Komplexe Systeme, Design Sciences, Operationale Heuristik). 'Vorliegende Arbeit ist der Versuch […] die Architektur gewissermaßen wieder in den Stand zu setzen, der ihr im System des Denkens eigentlich zukommt […] Der Komplexitätsdiskurs in der Architektur ist zurück.' (Prof. Gerd Zimmermann, Weimar) N2 - 'In his study ARCHITECTURE, LANGUAGE, AND COMPLEXITY, Jörg Rainer Noennig observes that architectural thought is hampered by the inadequacy of traditional architectural concepts [...] To grasp the complex issues of today, we are in dire need of 'languaging' to come up with better tools. [...] The present study represents the first step in the direction of creating a New Organon that will conceptualize the world in terms of processes rather than things.'

Der erste Teil motiviert die Arbeit durch eine theoretische Exploration von Alltagserfahrungen im Vergleich zu historischen Analogien beim Einsatz neuer Techniken / Technologien. Im zweiten Teil werden empirisch Faktoren für alternative digitale Entwurfsmethoden exploriert. Im dritten Teil erfolgt eine Theoriebildung und die Entwicklung einer Entwurfsmethode auf der Basis der Explorierten Hypothesen aus Teil eins und zwei. Der vierte und fünfte Teil widmet sich der explanativen Falsifikation der Theorie durch einen Feldversuch. Dieser wird durch eine sozialwissenschaftliche Evaluation unterstützt. Die Ergebnisse werden im Hinblick auf die entwickelte Methode und weitere Untersuchungen diskutiert. N2 - The dissertation explores and evaluates factors for alternative planing methods in spatial distant workgroups. The first part provides motivation, which is initiated by a theoretical exploration off everyday experiences in comparison to historical analogies according to the use of new techniques / technologies. The second part deals with the exploration of factors for alternative digital planing methods. The third part is about building a theory upon the explored hypothesises from part one and two. The fourth and fifth part is dedicated to a experiment, which was supposed to show the particle abilities of the developed method. This experiment was evaluated by the means of sociology too. The result are discussed according to the developed method and to carry on further examinations.

Architects and planners are the key players for reducing the environmental impacts of buildings, as they define them to a large extent. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) allows for the holistic environmental analysis of a building. However, it is currently not employed to improve the environmental performance of buildings during the design process, although the potential for optimization is greatest there. One main reason is the lack of an adequate means of applying LCA in the architectural design process. As such, the main objective of this thesis is to develop a method for environmental building design optimization that is applicable in the design process. The key concept proposed in this thesis is to combine LCA with parametric design, because it proved to have a high potential for design optimization. The research approach includes the analysis of the characteristics of LCA for buildings and the architectural design stages to identify the research gap, the establishment of a requirement catalogue, the development of a method based on a digital, parametric model, and an evaluation of the method. An analysis of currently available approaches for LCA of buildings indicates that they are either holistic but very complex or simple but not holistic. Furthermore, none of them provide the opportunity for optimization in the architectural design process, which is the main research gap. The requirements derived from the analysis have been summarized in the form of a catalogue. This catalogue can be used to evaluate both existing approaches and potential methods developed in the future. In this thesis, it served as guideline for the development of the parametric method – Parametric Life Cycle Assessment (PLCA). The unique main feature of PLCA is that embodied and operational environmental impact are calculated together. In combination with the self-contained workflow of the method, this provides the basis for holistic, time-efficient environmental design optimization. The application of PLCA to three examples indicated that all established mandatory requirements are met. In all cases, environmental impact could be significantly reduced. In comparison to conventional approaches, PLCA was shown to be much more time-efficient. PLCA allows architects to focus on their main task of designing the building, and finally makes LCA practically useful as one of several criteria for design optimization. With PLCA, the building design can be time-efficiently optimized from the beginning of the most influential early design stages, which has not been possible until now. PLCA provides a good starting point for further research. In the future, it could be extended by integrating the social and economic aspects of sustainability.
