“small-big transformations".
As the name says, the seminnar will be focused on strategies for transforming existing spaces through small interventions.The course aims to explore alternatives and tools that, as designers, allow us to contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions without neglecting the cultural (social spatial economical) challenges of our discipline.
We will explore and discuss strategies that focus on the efficient management of materials and techniques available in their context. Those that prioritise reuse, as well as the optimisation of materials available in the immediate environment.
We will work on the concept of Frugality, and we will study strategies and tools to act from the design project.
Based on this approach, we will critically analyse experiences and case studies and explore new possibilities for our context.
But beyond the analysis, we will design something for a real case by the transformation of existing spaces
