The objective of this workshop is to reflect on our roles as professionals, educators, and students of Civil Engineering, Architecture, Urbanism, and Design. Participants will explore the application of forces and the assembly of structures—ranging from the scale of the human body to large-scale projects—while establishing a fundamental link between the construction process and structural analysis (spatial and organic).
Dynamics in the professional market have transformed how we work and consume; in this process, various professions have had to adapt to new technological trends. Architecture is no exception, and a new type of professional has had to adapt to these new consumption patterns. Office spaces have been redesigned, hierarchies have been flattened, and the creative process has been harmonized with this new reality.
This course aims to teach the fundamentals of Green Infrastructure, a landscape planning and design method capable of linking nature conservation with urban development. It does so by creating a network of multifunctional landscapes that provide space for human activities without compromising natural processes.
