Prendre place dans la pente
Nicolas Bassand, chargé de cours à la Haute école de paysage, d’ingénierie et d’architecture de Genève (HEPIA), était l’invité de l’atelier du Prof. Emmanuel Rey du Laboratoire d’architecture et technologies durables (LAST) pour parler de différentes formes d’habitat collectif sur des sites en pente. Intitulée « Prendre place dans la pente : les communs du logement collectif », sa conférence a permis aux étudiantes et étudiants de découvrir plusieurs projets contemporains se confrontant aux enjeux spécifiques de sites urbains marqués par des dénivelés importants.

SCHOOL LECTURE 6/7
Plan Común
HOUSING VOL.1
Architecture of Commons. La ‘Maison Commune’
Maison Commune is a self-commissioned project, a built manifesto and an open process with its inhabitants. A small housing project that defines and highlights a sequence of shared spaces and the joy of everyday life at all levels.
Join us Tuesday 26 November at 6.30pm at @epflarchitecture to exchange with the architects Felipe De Ferrari and Kim Courrèges partners at Plan Común’s.
Founded in 2012, Plan Común provides strategies to maximize and reinforce public and collective space -understood as a key aspect of architecture, regardless of its scale or program- by means of simple architecture tools, through a critical discourse, research, design and building. They are convinced that radical, basic -even silent- forms are more likely to be relevant and universal, and serve as a support for collective use and imagination.

Anooradha Iyer Siddiqi will join us on Wednesday, 20.11.2024 for the next lecture in the Neighbors lecture series on History & Theory of Architecture Vol. 4.
When Minnette De Silva founded the Studio of Modern Architecture in Kandy, Sri Lanka (then Ceylon), in 1947, she was one of the first women in the world to establish a professional architectural practice as sole principal. Her practice treated architecture as a lived experience and a contemporary expression of heterogeneous pasts. Minnette De Silva: Intersections offers a richly illustrated critical introduction to De Silva’s practice, exploring a range of projects through the intersecting intellectual concerns that shaped her work. Drawing on modernist architectural techniques and material heritage practices, De Silva forged a distinctive, critically engaged aesthetic program and set of values.
Anooradha Iyer Siddiqi is an assistant professor at Barnard College, Columbia University and specializes in histories of architecture, modernity, and migration, centering African and South Asian questions of historicity and archives, heritage politics, and feminist and colonial practices.

HOUSING VOL.1
Vivoli, Affordable Housing Mumbai
Vivoli is an ‘environment of spaces’, enclosed, semi-open and open. These spaces construct an opportunity for numerous activities at different times of the day in the house and in the community. It offers multifunctional spaces within the single unit where the user can create different living patterns based on different times of the day avoiding the stereotypical jail cell-like flats that people are forced to buy. Instead, it offers a place that fosters community living in apartments that behave like homes.
Join us Tuesday 11 November at 6.30pm at @epflarchitecture to exchange with the architect and designer Rohan Chavan.
Rohan started his practice in Mumbai in 2015 to work on projects related to public and community sanitation, urban design, affordable housing, single-family homes and institutions. His approach toward living patterns and bold spaces are the highlights of its design practice. He believes architecture as a science emerged from man’s humble need for shelter. A home is the purest form of design.

7e Journées Bernardo Secchi 2024
Espace, vie et politique: contre-projets et transition socio-écologique
28 - 29 octobre 2024
Foyer SG, EPFL Suisse
+ En ligne: Zoom ID 695 289 85 269
Initiées par la FBA et @habitat_epfl en 2015, les Journées Bernardo Secchi célèbrent leur 10e anniversaire. Le JBS 2024 prolonge la réflexion initiée en 2022, en se concentrant sur la transition écologique, sociale et spatiale des territoires urbanisés modernes.
Réorienter l’attention des concepteurs sur l’espace, la vie et la politique devient une approche essentielle pour concevoir des outils de planification et de conception pour une planète habitable, équitable et saine au milieu de ces complexités. Permettre cette transition socio-écologique et spatiale nécessite un nouveau départ, marqué par un changement conceptuel fondamental favorisant de nouvelles connexions entre l’espace, la vie et la politique.
Keynote speakers:
- Paola VIGANÒ: "Water as a subject"
- Maria KAIKA: "Turning up the heat: Urban political ecology for a climate emergency"
- Kristiaan BORRET: "Embracing complexity"

Excursion architecturale à la Siedlung Halen
L’atelier du Prof. Emmanuel Rey du Laboratoire d’architecture et technologies durables (LAST) a effectué une excursion architecturale pour visiter la Siedlung Halen en périphérie de la ville de Berne. Cet enseignement extra-muros a permis aux étudiantes et étudiants de découvrir ce quartier iconique, avec une attention particulière aux typologies des logements, aux espaces partagés et aux aménagements publics. Cette visite entre en étroite résonance avec les enjeux abordés dans le cadre de l’atelier de projet Reliefs urbains.

The exhibition and research : Atacama/Hamburgo conducted by the Laboratory of History and Theories of Architecture, Technology and Media , directed by and integrated by , , and , opened last week at @ccplm Centro Cultural La Moneda, Santiago, Chile.
Exhibiting a vast and previously unseen collection of archival material gathered between Germany and Chile, Atacama / Hamburgo examines the relationship between a monumental and emblematic building built in the city of Hamburg -the Chilehaus- and the nitrate industry established in the Atacama Desert in the early 20th century. The material, explored through various visual and sonic media, highlights the alchemical transformation of nitrates -extracted and processed by workers under precarious conditions- into symbolic and financial capital on the other side of the world. Without critically revising its history, the Chilehaus was listed as a World Heritage in 2015.
This exhibition, therefore, aims to reflect on the elements that constitute a monument and to challenge the processes of memory and heritage designation. At the same time, it offers a method for observing the local effects generated by the global dynamics of extractive, industrial, and financial capitalism, highlighting a historical episode yet with multiple contemporary reverberations.
The research was conducted in collaboration with historian and researcher with sound design by

Cheshire cats & Trojan horses
165 homes willfully bending expectations and regulations. Within a context of dire need for affordable housing on the one hand, and a growing homogenization of domestic spaces on the other, innovative strategies suggest a reconsideration of what could be good housing.
Join us Tuesday 15 October at 6.30pm at @epflarchitecture to exchange with members of fala Atelier.
fala is an architecture practice founded in 2013. In its first decade, the atelier’s central endeavour has been a constellation of housing projects and transformations built in portugal.

The @epflcampus is transforming, with the future creation of a new building underneath the Esplanade, as well as the renovation of the CO building.
These renovations will provide an additional 1500 seats distributed through modular lecture halls, ranging from 200 to 500 seats, in the new building that will replace the current underground parking beneath the Esplanade.

The SUPERSTUDIO team is happy to launch the second Forum of the semester: DIGEST.
Students, teachers, and guests will gather to discuss on food, power, territory and types.
When: 08 & 09 October
Where: Project Room, SG Building, EPFL
Under the title 'Domesticated Foodscapes,' Superstudio explores hidden perspectives and design strategies related to food, examining its transformative impact on spatial and cultural practices. Since humanity settled down from a nomadic lifestyle as hunter-gatherers, we have continually shaped our environment to accommodate our needs for sustenance, shelter, and community. This ongoing process of cultivation extends from the micro level of our bodies cellular structures to the macro level of territorial ecologies. Among the many products of human labor, food uniquely embodies this interconnection, shaping our identities and intertwining with the landscapes and cities we inhabit. It creates shared cultural patterns and influences a diverse range of architectural typologies. However, since the onset of industrialization and the rise of global transport networks, these typologies have been decoupled from their original territories. Technological advancements have enabled artificial climate zones, while international trade has made food accessible far beyond its place of origin. Although food production continues to shape landscapes today, in many regions it also degrades them - especially where the demand far exceeds local needs.
In light of global population growth, the call for rationalizing food production is growing louder. But does this rationalization come at the expense of local traditions? Are these traditions still viable in the face of contemporary challenges, or are they being eroded by the push toward efficiency? Do we need to rethink the concept of tradition and identity?
