Abstract


The primary discussion of spatial organization that includes the analysis of the impact of logistics processes on flexibility, the transformability of spatial solutions and the transparency of space, has not been able to provide the theoretical and methodological interpretation of their spatio-temporal flow. This paper will point out the modalities of ‘logistic architecture’ production that break the design process tradition, as it turned out as unable to support creativity-based modes of reception of architectural ideas. The introduction of concept ‘logistic architecture’ announces new methodological and theoretical approach to the spatial syntheses of different processes in a building, aimed at achieving optimal spatio-temporal conditioning by the logistics system in relation to the use of creative strategy, as part of the urban renovation. As my research field, I shall take the comparative flow of produced vehicles from the factory end line to the multi-story parking structures within two factories: Fiat Factory in Kragujevac, Serbia and Volkswagen Transparent Factory in Dresden, Germany.

In 1904, within the company, a section dedicated to automobiles is inaugurated. Beside repair services, certain car parts are also manufactured. In 1939 it begins assembling Chevrolet military trucks. After World War II, the plant was renamed Zavodi Crvena Zastava ("Red Flag Institutes"). In a referendum held on August 26, 1953, 96% of the employees of then Zavodi Crvena Zastava voiced their desire to produce automobiles. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_Automobili_Srbija).
