the BRIEF
the workshop does not include flamboyant nor star-architects but emphasizes that the masterplan is an anachronism of our society. Thus, is not architecture of megastructures that occupy a prominent territory within a city or community, but specific, local and possibly transient proposals. During the workshop students, professors, and the collectives utilize and explore the mechanisms for recovering the position of the designer - more advocate - in the public sphere. It is about knowing and understanding that we need to be accomplices of new urban practices, self-organized work and site-specific projects.
