Patchwork City

Cities are made of several pieces from different periods and origins. By using multiple strategies, this workshop explores the concept of circularity as a wide field to find new and unexpected solutions to the development of future cities. In an abstract environment, the students will define a new reality by adapting and modifying already built objects. As architects dealing with preexistences. Concepts such as size, stability, in-between spaces, and drawing and construction techniques will be considered, in a hands-on workshop experience.
