Preliminary Workshop 1_Building System Study

The preparatory phase of atelier mobile#5 is going to be articulated in 3 preliminary workshops (PWS).
PWS1 took place on march 8-9, it was dedicated to the study of precedents (small architectures, pavilions, landscape furnitures...) mainly composed by timber elements with the purpose of highlighting building systems suitable to our project.
The research team was divided in two groups asked to study precedents where the structure was or was not corresponding to the external skin of the building.
Jan Zwiejski (Université Laval, Québec) and Walter Nicolino (architect, Torino) were invited to a discussion with the research team to underline features and potential developments of the chosen systems.

atelier mobile#5 will take place in Paraloup in Valle Stura near Cuneo on the last week of next July with the aim to design and build a series of installations to lead the visitors to the new museum in the mountain hamlet.

A team composed by BA and Master architecture students of the Politecnico di Torino was awarded a funding for students projects to take part in the organization of the summer workshop.

The students with the assistance of atelier mobile tutors and the academic reference by professors Roberto Giordano and Chiara Devoti will study the historical and geographical features of the area and a building system to be used during the workshop.
