Shelter - learning by doing

schron jako projekt architektoniczny
“You creativity and skills play an important role in making an impact in responding to humanitarian challenges and global crisis” The world seems to be reeling from one crisis to another. Recently we experienced a global pandemic, economic uncertainty, wars, floods and earthquakes. Proceeding from the challenges facing humanity at the global level, especially after the recent events that threatened people's stability, safety, and existence without distinction between race, color, sex, and age. The notion of the seminar was initiated by questioning our role as architects and planners in responding to these challenges by preparing and training on emergency solutions

The idea of shelter-learning by doing is to think globally regarding the concept of shelter or a roof over a head which is one of the fundamental human rights and respond with creative doable design solutions. The assignment may take on different dimensions and scales, and participants will work in groups to design and build a physical model as a prototype that can be a solution for a particular area based on participants' interests and decisions.

Thiselective seminar aims to initiate critical and analytical thinking, in addition to understanding the problem to develop a concept.

“Learning by doing” is an interactive course that aims to meet the need of architectural students to build and understand the scale of their designs (it’s time to build together). An expert architect practitioner“ Michał Podgórczyk” will take part in this course. Ina addition the course will forge the ethos of on-site teamwork (class room), where students are free to play with materials, colors, building techniques and methods, and strategies to get this assignment done.

  • Thinking about a design solution, bearing in mind the notion of emergency architecture.
  • Sketches for your ideas, focusing on the form, construction, material and usage.

Physical Model / prototypeForth – Fifthmeeting (In group) (6 hours)

  • Design a physical model as a first attempt.
  • Design a physical model prototype for the final ideas as a solution that respond to the chosen phenomena.

Exhibition and publishing the results – At Gdansk University of technology, department of architecture
