- The workshops focus mainly upon the study of habitat (in all its forms), by developing a process of simple reflection upon the architectural form (three projects)
- Reflections; experiences and suggestions for the private and professional housing in urban and rural settings
- Studies of small groups of housing integrating simple and existing contextual requirements
- Respect for a given environment
- Establishment of a special relationship with the site
- How to give an identity to a building or group of buildings? (study of figures)
- Students will tackle the relationships between "served" and "servant" spaces (logical study of a plan)
- Study and appropriation of materials developed on the experimentation with form
- Study of visual and physical impact using modelling experimentation (study - strong form)
- Study of the intervention of new referents (vegetation)
- Students will develop their propositions in the laboratory workshops by testing the possibilities, adequacy, relevance and coherence of their proposals: relationship to questions posed and developed.
- A piece of architecture seems more authentic when it succeeds in translating the aspirations of its era in terms of space.
- How to translate, decode and express the values of our time?
- Based on a simple housing theme, the programmes will be based upon a series of questions.
- What is contemporary space? How can one express spatiality and combine contextual characteristics?
