Department of Architecture

 

Discover the mesmerizing world of expandable, deployable and adaptable architecture with Esther Rivas Adrover and Elizabeth Wagemann. Join us for a fascinating journey of contemporary projects, and trace their origins through history: including Leonardo da Vinci's sketches and even clay tablets from Mesopotamia dating from 2400 B.C. Learn also how when a building 'is born', it is the beginning of a life that needs to adapt and to be nourished in order to be useful and meaningful over different generations. 30 minutes talk followed by model making. Come and enjoy this hands-on session for all!
