\t\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Let us accept once and for all that a truly unprecedented and advanced work is not that which uses superficial brilliance to make a temporary and sensational impact, or that which seeks to take one by surprise by means of ostentatious, acrobatic contortions, based on momentary \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcfinds\u00e2\u20ac\u2122, but only that which is justified by a continuing, living tradition, that which endures because it is put to the test again and again, within each new context, so that it expresses afresh inner experiences, secretly nurtured disciplines, forms that have truly been handled over and over again. What we may accept as reality cannot possibly be what we see ready-made around us, but much more what we attempt to visualize in a dream, all of us together and each one of us separately, the dream of a new – truly new – life, shaped like a poem.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

Kenneth Frampton, \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcStudies in Tectonic Culture\u00e2\u20ac\u2122<\/p>\n

\tThere is one major conclusion that can be drawn: in contemporary architectural practice architectonic form no longer tends to be generated from single building materials. There are multiple parameters that define the architectonic shell on different levels. The strong need for energy efficient buildings leads us to multi-layered fa\u00c3\u00a7ades or skins that tend to break up the idea of material consistence into particular aspects. Although every single layer is solving a precise task perfectly there appears a significant lack of material expression in the whole arrangement In splitting up of formerly strongly unified categories in architecture, we perceive a loss in building culture that leads to the absence of rchitectural language.<\/p>\n

\tThe workshop will be an opportunity to study the tectonics of architecture in detail. By building prototypes and structures, the project will try to motivate the participant to experience the essential principles of constructing. Working with specific materials will raise questions concerning principles of statics, the generic character of the material and the possibilities of making a whole from the parts. The workshop includes project work in groups, sketching ideas and on-site construction in scale 1:1. Before the hands-on building, a thatcher will give a workshop on \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcworking\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 thatch and building with it. Student groups are invited to prepare a talk concerning the specific construction system they are adopting during the course of the workshop.<\/p>\n

\tOn the last day the executed projects will be presented and discussed with the teachers. The project will be documented in a post-workshop phase and will be published as a booklet. This booklet will illustrate the entire process in all its various aspects. The publication will also be available in digital format.<\/p>\n
