The Master in Advanced Ecological Buildings and Biocities (MAEBB) postgraduate program is an 11-month immersive academic program focused on learning how to design and build a new generation of buildings and cities to respond to the planet’s emerging climate challenges. The program is carried out in Valldaura Labs, in Barcelona, a 135 He property located in the Collserola forest. Here, students will live and work surrounded by nature while using the most advanced technologies and design techniques in the pursuit of what is also IAAC’s long term initiative, to create self-sufficient and ecological environments.
Course: MAEBB01 22/23 Thermodynamic Fabrications
Students will explore through cultural references (documentary photography, images, etc.) the intersection between a particular climate and its everyday life. This exercise, ranging from architectural references to cultural adaptations to climate —social patterns and lifestyles, clothing, inhabitation patterns, local climatic types, etc.— will analyze how a given culture adapts to its geography and climate. Climate Consultant software and the psychrometric chart will help understand the relationship between climate and architecture.
