Course: MAEBB01 22/23 Resilient Envelopes

Resilient envelopes have to be developed, based on the harvested design strategies and the gathered concepts that the environment offers and have to be driven by specific sustainable constructive systems, integrating materiality with specific origin and composition, but also with an ample room for manoeuvre in terms of performativity, recyclability, bio-degradability, longevity... In this sense, the use of advanced wooden envelopes will be blended with the exploration of other sustainable materials, such as ceramics, rammed-earth, light mineral or recycled / re-used elements.
