A METHOD : 2 SEMESTERS – 2 INVESTIGATIONS

We invite our students to explore two scenarios in which the distinctions between inside and outside, small and large, usually devolved on one hand to housing and on the other to the city, are recomposed differently. It would all be about the same thing: the habitat. In this spirit, we would live the house as a city and the city as a house.

Fall semester: THE HOUSE AS A CITY

Spring semester: THE CITY AS A HOUSE
