WINTER 2017: In October the Design Studio Building Cycle started with 36 students. The semester began by undertaking wide-ranging material experiments with the harvesting and reconfiguration of waste plastic, glass, timber and concrete, all of which were categorised and documented.
Based on these experiments teams were formed that worked on pre-designs for the site. These were discussed with the different future user groups. Based on these discussions the projects were merged into one single design that was then developed furher by the group as a whole. Therefore, the students defined different expert groups (material, construction, involvement, management, ...). Main decisions were taken in the big circle that soon became emblematic.
