EDRA (Environmental Design Research Association) 27 Call
Please distribute freely. (Salt Lake City, June 12-16, 1996)
Due to a mailing glitch for getting the Calls for Papers to some of
our international colleagues, a number of requests for a deadline
extension, and a later June meeting date that takes advantage of good
weather and vacation time, the EDRA Board has decided to extend the
submission deadline to November 1st.
Already the submissions are keeping pace with the dynamite meeting we
had last year in Boston. The tours will run the gamut from
neighborhood revitalization, to natural areas and public spaces, to
unique Mormon-influenced design, to the historical mining town turned
resort area and future Olympic venue of Park City. So come join what
promises to be a stimulating meeting.
In the Call below, note that completed papers are needed only if the
author wishes blind review for possible publication in the
Proceedings. Otherwise, paragraph summaries and contact information
are required. Except for Intensives, session length is an hour and
twenty minutes.
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION FOR EDRA 27/1996:
PUBLIC & PRIVATE PLACES (27th Annual Conference of the
Environmental Design Research Association)
SALT LAKE CITY HILTON JUNE 12-16, 1996, SLC UTAH
The Environmental Design Research Association (EDRA) is an
international multi-disciplinary organization of design
professionals, social and behavioral scientists, educators,
and others dedicated to improving the quality of our
surroundings through research-based designs and uses of the
environment. Conferences provide a forum for presenting your
work and learning about the newest developments. EDRA
conferences are enriched by a diversity of perspectives,
disciplines, and types of contributions. EDRA welcomes all
submissions regarding the relationships between environment
and behavior.
For those who would like to address the theme, we welcome
submissions that address the many facets of public/private
places. The transformation of physical spaces into
meaningful places involves an array of people, actions, and
experiences. How this occurs in public and private settings
and how these settings merge or separate provide the theme
for EDRA 27. Places for individuals and groups often serve
to include some, exclude others. Further, the boundaries
between public and private are being redrawn, renegotiated,
and reconceptualized. How does publicness and privateness
work for or against the identity and interests of members of
society? How does the tension between public and private
change over time? How do the issues of public and private
become manifest in our policies, beliefs, buildings, and
actions? A nonexhaustive list of suggested issues includes:
COMMUNITY/GROUP CONTRIBUTIONS: social design, participatory
planning and design, grass roots and community groups, NIMBY,
the dissensus community, community without propinquity,
design review boards, community development, sociopetal
PRIVATE PLACES: privatization of public space,
individualism, personalization, intimate society,
materialism, privatization, home as haven, sociofugal
PUBLIC ACCESS ISSUES: universal design, pluralism,
degendering spaces, child friendly cities, grey design,
livable streets, community gardens
PUBLIC/PRIVATE ISSUES IN THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT:
sustainable environments, tragedy of the commons, green
architecture, wise use movement and other public/private land
use disputes, pollution credits, contaminated communities
PUBLIC/PRIVATE BOUNDARY CHANGES: community household,
pedestrian pockets, co-housing, privatopia, defensible space,
public lives in institutions, home based work, electronic
cottage, family-friendly workplaces, team workspaces,
collaboration
INDIVIDUAL-GROUP CONNECTIONS AND TENSIONS: place attachment
& identity, environmental autobiography, environmental
stress, crowding, privacy regulation, territoriality
PUBLIC GOOD AND PRIVATE GOOD IN PRACTICE: in post occupancy
evaluations and programming, teaching, and research
DEFINING AND SUBSIDIZING PUBLIC GOOD AND PRIVATE RIGHTS:
environmental racism, barrios, ghettos, reservations,
culture-sensitive design, design experts
The program committee includes Barbara Brown, Jack Nasar,
Doug Perkins, Carol Werner, Irwin Altman, and Armando
Solorzano. (French and Spanish translations of the above theme are
available upon request.)

2. Submission categories & instructions for abstracts (do
one of the below options):
___ a. PAPERS, PRESENTED IN INTERACTIVE POSTER SESSIONS,
are original and previously unpublished environmental design
research. Papers can be for presentation only, or be
considered for presentation and Proceedings publication and
student paper competition. Choose one of the three paper
alternatives below:
___ To submit a paper for presentation only, send 4 copies
of a 100 word maximum abstract.
___ To submit a paper to blind review for consideration
for publication in the Proceedings, send 4 copies of the
Cover Sheet, followed by the 100-word maximum abstract
without authors' names, followed by up to 14 more double-
spaced pages of text, references, tables, or illustrations
(3500 words maximum).
___ If the paper is submitted for the student paper
competition, please submit 5 copies of the paper specified
above instead of 4.
___ b. SYMPOSIA include 3 to 4 papers organized around a
theme. The symposium organizer writes a 100-word abstract of
the session's purpose and scope. The organizer also gathers
individual 100-word abstracts from participants for each
paper. Four copies of the session and individual and session
abstracts are required.
___ To submit a symposium for presentation only at the
conference, the session organizer submits the four copies of
the session and individual abstracts as described above.
___ To submit a symposium paper to blind review for
consideration for publication in the Proceedings, also submit
4 copies of a 14 page paper, following guidelines for Papers
under 2a, above, and indicate on the Cover Sheet the name of
your paper and the title of the proposed symposium. Provide
your symposium organizer with the 100 word maximum abstract
described above.
___ c. DESIGN PROJECTS can involve drawings or models that
are explicitly guided by research. The abstract should
describe the project and setting and specify how research was
used.
Student awards can be given for both papers and design
projects; first and second prizes and an EDRA Student Award
Certificate can be awarded in both categories. We encourage
studio faculty to plan projects that qualify for submission.
Eligibility criteria are that a) all author(s)/designer(s)
are students; b) the work must have been conpleted within the
past year while the authors were full-time students; c)
faculty, professional, or non-student involvement was
minimal. Students should have primary responsibility for all
phases of the research or design. Non-student involvement
should be limited to that normally expected on work that is
graded. These restrictions do not exclude participatory or
collaborative projects involving client groups and faculty
advisors or coordinators. Accepted student papers will be
judged by the EDRA Awards Committee and accepted student
design projects will be juried at the conference.
___ d. FILM, VIDEO, AND SLIDE-TAPE PRESENTATIONS convey
experimental processes, or illustrate methods or results of
environmental design research. The abstract should mention
the media used, the time required, and summarize the
presentation.
___ e. INTENSIVES devote a full or half day on the
Wednesday of the conference to a central theme. Intensives
can be organized in any format (e.g., papers, charette,
working session) for any group size preferred. The abstract
should summarize the theme, objective, format and detail how
audience members can participate. Include time requirements
by the title on the Cover Sheet.
___ f. WORKSHOPS are interactive discussions by 4 or more
presenters with active audience involvement. Workshop
organizers devote about half of the 90-minute session to
group participation. The abstract details the aims, format,
and expected outcome of the workshop.
___ g. WORKING GROUPS involve open-ended informal round-
table discussions. The abstract details the aims, format, and
expected outcome of the working group.
