Abstract
(Deutsch)
The thesis at hand is concerned with the different ideological and cultural meanings attributed to the urban grid throughout history and in recent projects. The research focuses on the shift from a pre-modern, closed city with its delimited grid to a modern, open, potentially infinite “city-territory”, where the urban grid becomes the means of secularization and neutralization of urban space.
The comparison of two recent plans of district redevelopment in Paris and Istanbul by the firms OMA and Zaha Hadid Architects has confirmed the modern character of the grid. On the other hand the analysis of the work of the architecture firm Dogma has revealed its attempt to give back the city its “symbolic” character, within the context of the city-territory and the open grid’s secularized space.
