A design workshop on defining concepts of circularity: 5 interdiciplinary teams, 5 days, 3 ECTS.
BauHow5 alliance together with renowned Allmann Sattler Wappner Architekten and Swiss company Vitra invite you to join our first ‘design sprint’ for students and researchers in architecture and beyond.
The sprint is a phased five-day process with key-notes, work sessions and reviews for answering critical questions through analysis, design, prototyping, and testing ideas with customers.Since 2009 more people are living in urban than in rural spaces. The construction sector consumes the largest share of raw materials and resources in the world, which are decreasing rapidly.
The circular economy is about to tackle everything and define new business models. Producing differently to consume less. Designing for disassembly or deconstruction. Re-directing waste into a circle as a resource. Is the focus on physical-bound concepts, buildings, materials, value chains and the economy enough? Why not approach circularity from where we learn to design and research? Can it be viewed as a virtual concept, related to knowledge, skills, and principles of acting and experiences, which are channeled back into university-like settings?
How would a ‘Circular University’ look like in all its possible dimensions?
Challenge these questions in the Design Sprint at TUM Department of Architecture. If you are motivated to challenge the existing, are curious to learn new methods and like to work in interdisciplinary teams, daily from 10 am to 5 pm: Apply now!
