Monsterpieces 3 - Paris

EN

The seminar Monsterpieces is playful architectural speculation about the re-use potential of large under-used buildings in Paris, intending to increase their impact on the immediate surroundings without significant transformations. As a pedagogical and design methodology, the students will retrace how the building design was conceived through the production of 3d models that focus on the inherent spatial challenges and opportunities of each “Monster.” These models will be the base for the representation of its speculated future. Purposefully lively and densely detailed illustrations will capture the potential of the rethought building beyond the act of simple re-programming.
