Courses
Building design in the circular economy
AR-497
The class introduces the concept of circular economy and its applications to building design, with a focus on design with reused components and design for disassembly. The class develops critical thinking skills over and above theoretical and technical inputs.
Constructive second hand
PENS-212
Building second-hand means seizing the opportunity offered by the circular economy to improve design by reusing components from deconstruction, at minimum environmental cost. This week will introduce students to these concepts through hands-on experience.
UE K : Architecture and Sustainability : performance studies
AR-440
This course is based on the team design of a temporary, mobile and sustainable theater. A pedagogical approach which will focus on the introduction of the concepts of sustainability applied to the design of a project with a short life span.
