Synopsis:

The experimental studio of urban design is dedicated to a significant challenge - to create a viable, sustainable place to live in localities that have been devastated, abandoned, or have any of many burdens that do not allow for classical methods of urbanism. Students are challenged with questions of how hard or how easy it is to reuse those localities.

The assignments are non-traditional locations such as abandoned quarries or mining sites, testing the student's creativity to break away from the classic concept of urbanism.

The goal is to create a city under difficult conditions that will withstand the 21st century and meet the trends of sustainable living.

The Studio also invites experts in landscape architecture, water management, and technical infrastructure to discuss the proposal with.
