L'Università Iuav di Venezia è stata invitata a partecipare al "2017 Tongji International Construction Festival" organizzato dalla Tongji University di Shanghai (5-11 giugno 2017).

Il team, diretto e accompagnato da Emanuele Garbin, è composto da cinque nostri studenti del primo anno: Carla Colzani, Tiziano Deromedi, Arianna Gorin, Shenav Ragiv, Benjamin Reise.

 

Nell'ambito del Festival è prevista la partecipazione ad un concorso: gli studenti progetteranno e realizzeranno un piccolo padiglione temporaneo riflettendo sul concetto di 'micro-comunità' proposto dal bando.

 

Al Festival, oltre all’Università Iuav e a 54 team della Tongji University e altre università cinesi, parteciperanno dieci università straniere tra cui la Bauhaus-Universität di Weimar, la McGill University di Montreal, la Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya di Barcellona, la Technische Universität di Graz.

About the Competition

 

Mission

The purpose and mission of Tongji International Construction Festival is to help participants gain perceptual and rational knowledge of material property, construction mode and process, and comprehending ability of fundamental building fabrication physics through building practice. In the meantime, this competition is designed to promote participants’ basic knowledge of architectural function, dimension of human figures, spatial form and building physics and technology by means of experience activities inside the plastic polypropylene sheet architectural space participants created themselves.

 

Theme: Micro Community

This year’s theme of construction festival is “Micro Community”.  At the designated time & place, students are required to self construct a temporary and spatial community, and in the meantime spontaneously create a network community that crosses nation, region and cities through information collection. In this process, individuals become the subject and pivot while the whole structure presents itself as a state of multivariate and homogeneity.
