Utopia K67

In his novel Blindness Jose Saramago narrate a story of a plague that affects the city so the encounters between inhabitants become increasingly frightening. The immense absurdity of the capital development of the contemporary city recalls Saramago's apocalyptic vision of the development affected by an epidemic of white blindness.

How will we live together when public spaces are sold out? The story is a parable of the fear of the unknown - is it war, isolation or just the fear of being to close to each other? 

Public talks in K67 with local cultural and political figures transmitted live on-air of Independent Coastal Radio NOR.

The utopia starts in projects that are going beyond the expected rules. It points out the neuralgic problems of the location and seeks the analysis of the current state of matter. One of the utopias stands in a small Slovenian coastal town Koper - in a public square where a parking lot is situated on the most prominent position next to the sea.

The utopia - K67 kiosk, designed by Saša Mächtig in 1967, concludes its story with the absurdity of the use of the public square next to the sea in favor of parking. As the writer and journalist Martin Reichert, to whom we dedicated this project, would say, “it is a parking lot with the most beautiful view in the world."

K67 is one of the best examples of design during the former Yugoslavia. In the context of the presentation in the public space, with the help of the owner Coastal Galleries Piran, it was placed on the square in Koper in December 2021, in order to become a new generator for its urban content.

From spring to late autumn 2023, a process of tactical and performative urbanism took part in the K67 in favour to create an inclusive public space. The main concept proposed and elaborated within the municipality was based on the change of the current parking lot on the square into a green community space.

Unfinished project Solis was more than ten years a failure of a PPP concept. After COVID the investor succeeded to add two more floors of the private apartments.

Tactical urbanism is the opposite of investment urbanism, which has a dispersed structure of activity in space and builds various, mainly residential buildings that sell well, but without a well-thought-out placement in the context of the city. The last plan for Koper was signed by the architect Edo Mihevc in the 1960s.

The renovation of the new roof for the city market was executed via the municipality but without a public competition.

Today it looks like investor urbanism is much faster than the concept of town planning per se. This results in a fact that there is no more urban planning in the city of Koper today.

The farm market with live animals in plastic tent on Ukmarjev square shows the discrepancy of communication between the municipality and experts.

In Koper as in other towns across the Adriatic coast there is an obvious pressure from investor urbanism. Public spaces are mostly touristized, privatized and don’t belong to dwellers anymore. Therefore is important to ensure that buildings are not built without public competitions. The K67 stays a reminder of a utopia that shall make aware of the importance of reuse and creation of community spaces.

The cruise ships don't need to pay tax in Koper so instead of Venice, were are banned are welcomed for a pollution of cruise tourism.

The utopia K67 is dedicated to the writer and journalist Martin Reichert.

K67 is a kiosk design created in 1966 by the Slovenian architect and designer Saša J. Mächtig.

The design is based on polyfibre reinforced modules, which can be used as single units or combined to large agglomerations. It can serve many different functions; throughout its history it has been used for newspaper kiosks, parking-attendant booths, copyshops, market stands, shelter booths, chip stalls, student cafes, and lottery stands. It appears in different colour combinations (red is the most common),[1] and it is easily visible and accessible. The modular design of the units enables the K67 to fit almost any location.

Patented in 1967, K67 was prepared for serial production in 1968 with the first exhibition of prototypes in Ljutomer, Slovenia.[2] It was manufactured by the Imgrad factory in Ljutomer.

The Continuous Reinvention

What connects Ljubljana, New York and Berlin? A modular, adaptive design system placed there. It is a Kiosk K67, designed by Saša Mächtig.

From 1968 to 1999 have been manufactured around 7,500 units of the K67 all around Yugoslavia. Some of them were also exported to Poland, Japan, New Zealand, Kenya, Iraq, the Soviet Union, and the United States. The system permitted unlimited configurations and variations, therefore is perfect for different types of adaptation and programs. You might find the Kiosk K67 in the collection of the Museum of Architecture and Design MAO in Ljubljana.

Kiosk K67 was also adapted for different uses, from border patrol stations, ski lift ticket booths, flower shops, to retail and fast-food stands. And after more than 50 years it is still present and becoming popular in many cities.

The first K67, which became a part of the design collection of MoMA in 1970, was at the beginning set on the 53rd Street sidewalk. It got finally its place in the museum during the MoMA exhibition Toward a Concrete Utopia: Architecture in Yugoslavia, 1948–1980 as an object of mass design.

The catalogue from the exhibition Systems, Structures, Strategies in the Museum of Architecture and Design MAO, Ljubljana.

Maja Vardjan, our of the curators of the exhibition Systems, Structures, Strategies in the Museum of Architecture and Design MAO, describes why the K67 is so persistent in many cities. She evaluates it as a piece that with “its position between architecture and industrial design, embeddedness in the framework of a modern city and society, the rituals of daily life, and, last but not least, its persistent capacity to reinvent itself.”

The ability to reinvent itself makes the kiosk fresh in many settings and configurations. Martin Ruge created a kioski in Berlin. He brought one of the K67 although the transportation was difficult and the connection with freshwater, sewage and electricity to the Mykita building took more effort than expected. But he thinks it was worth it. And freshwater, sewage and electricity shall become matter of the new design issues for K67 to solve in the future. 

The metamorphosis as a constant change of shape, idea, social and political reality shaped K67 to the point that is again in use. As Maja Vardjan said, a kiosk is phenomena, always alive and never the same.

ポリ塩化ビニル（PVC）価格動向：包括的な価格データベース、ニュース、予測

2024年第1四半期の市場レビュー（2024年3月）

アジア太平洋

2024年第1四半期、アジア太平洋地域のポリ塩化ビニル（PVC）市場は、下流の需要減少と供給過剰など、複数の要因により下落しました。原油価格の上昇にもかかわらず、PVC市場は回復力を見せました。スポット市場の信頼性には変動があり、一時的な価格変動と統合が発生しました。四半期を通じて、中国の建設部門からの需要は低迷し続け、調達業務は特定の需要水準を満たすことに焦点を当てました。ベトナムでは、生産者が3月にプロモーション割引を提供し、価格調整にもかかわらず市場の課題が続いています。台湾の生産者は伝統的にアジアのPVC価格のベンチマークを設定してきましたが、最近では中国の一部の生産者が不利な需給状況の中で安定した輸出価格を維持しています。需要と販売の低迷により下流市場の在庫レベルが増加し、インフラの推進による市場の低迷が難しい状況になっています。一方で、日本では供給制約があり、PVC価格は四半期に3.7%上昇し、2024年3月までに東京FOBのPVCサスペンションフレキシブルグレードK67で724米ドル/トンに達しました。

ヨーロッパ

ヨーロッパのPVC市場では、2024年第1四半期に価格が著しく上昇し、中程度の需要と供給不足を反映しています。紅海の混乱に関連する物流の混乱がヨーロッパのPVCサプライチェーンの課題を悪化させ、この価格動向の一因となっています。これらの供給混乱により、下流の生産速度が低下し、市場参加者は将来の変化に対して警戒心を強めています。建設活動の低迷にもかかわらず、ドイツ国内市場ではPVCの供給が制限されています。スポット市場の逼迫、OPEC+の生産削減、地政学的緊張により、世界の原油価格は1バレルあたり87ドルを超えました。しかし、ドイツのPVC価格は四半期半ばのコスト上昇の中で需給ギャップが縮小し、在庫が制限されています。2024年3月にイースター休暇が近づくと、特にドイツの港が第13週目と第14週目に閉鎖される見通しであり、供給に関する懸念が高まっています。さらに、2024年1月のPVC輸出は約27％増加し、在庫不足による生産率の減少が現在の四半期のPVC価格上昇に寄与しています。

2024年第1四半期、特にサウジアラビアのポリ塩化ビニル（PVC）市場は堅調でした。建設業界からの下流需要の増加、在庫の制限、上流のエチレン価格の安定が重要な要因でした。これらの要因により、需給が中程度から高い強気の市場状況が形成されました。サウジアラビアでは、国内の建設需要の増加と在庫の制限により、2024年2月にPVC価格が急騰しました。建設企業は成長見通しに楽観的で、ビジネス環境が大幅に改善されました。PVCに対する中程度から高い需要が製品価格を支え、下流部門の購���意欲を刺激しました。全体として、中東アフリカ地域のPVC価格は四半期を通じて徐々に上昇し、前年同期および前四半期と比較してプラスの変化が見られました。サウジアラビアのPVCサスペンションカレンダーグレードK60 FOBアルジュバイルの価格は、四半期末までに765米ドル/トンに達しました。

南米

南米では、地域の供給制約と在庫の逼迫により、2024年第1四半期にPVC価格が上昇傾向にありました。特にブラジル市場は、ボルチモアのフランシス・スコット・キー橋の崩落に伴うサプライチェーンの混乱の影響を受けました。この崩落はメリーランド港の交通に影響を与え、2024年3月に向けての下流需要の緩やかな増加と相まって、PVCサプライチェーンに新たな課題をもたらしました。トレーダーは倉庫の在庫状況に応じて価格戦略を調整しましたが、悪天候によるターミナルの運営中断が断続的に発生し、慎重な緊急時対応計画が必要とされました。下流の需要改善にもかかわらず、トレーダーはマージンを維持するために製品価格を慎重に引き上げました。2024年2月の輸入データは0.9%減少し、ブラジル市場の在庫が逼迫していることが明らかになりました。
