Abstract:
In the post-Hiroshima era, atomic cities-designed to survive a nuclear attack-remain in the science fiction realm. Yet Hungarian émigré Paul Laszlo, a successful architect in Southern California suburbia, had a utopian vision for a futuristic, paradoxically luxurious atomic city he called \"Atomville,\" never built but nonetheless seriously proposed. Laszlo was one of the very few architects known to venture into atomic survival on this scale. This article focuses on why the architectural profession for the most part ignored the issues raised by the atomic bomb, and on Laszlo\'s role as an outlier. It also deals with the genesis of Atomville and its place among the many unrealized ideas put forward in the 1940s and 1950s for urban survival, including underground buildings, urban dispersal, linear cities, and cluster cities.
摘要:
在后广岛时代,原子城——旨在在核攻击中幸存下来——仍然存在于科幻小说领域。然而匈牙利移民保罗·拉斯洛,南加州郊区的成功建筑师,对未来有一个乌托邦式的愿景,自相矛盾的豪华原子城,他称之为“阿托姆维尔,“从未建造过,但仍然认真提出。Laszlo是极少数以这种规模冒险进行原子生存的建筑师之一。本文主要讨论为什么建筑界大多数人忽视了原子弹引发的问题,以及Laszlo作为异常值的角色。它还涉及Atomville的起源及其在1940年代和1950年代提出的许多未实现的城市生存思想中的地位,包括地下建筑,城市分散,线性城市,和集群城市。
