Event Description

Call for Participants

Utzon(x) Summer School: Unfolding Utzon

Aalborg University + AKT II (Daniel Bosia) + UNStudio (Christian Veddeler) + 3XN/GXN (Kasper Guldager)

The aim of the summer school is to explore new approaches to design in the line of Utzon's work, by extending his design principles with the use of computational techniques in a parametric design environment. The summer school is a hands-on learning environment, where theoretical knowledge is coupled with physical and digital design assignments related to the theme.

We will be working in the Utzon Center throughout the summer school and from the studies and prototypes developed by participants a 1:1 folded reciprocal canopy will be created and constructed to cover a large part of the Utzon Center courtyard.

Please send 2x A4 pages, including letter of interest (5-10 lines), 1-2 reference projects of previous work and contact details to Lasse Andersson (land@create.aau.dk) before 1. May.
