In week 41 bachelor unit 2/3D travelled to Northern Italy, exploring various examples of past, present, and future architecture in the cities of Milan, Verona, and Venice. Through a campaign of sketching and photography, students examined seminal architectures such as Carlo Scarpa’s Castelvecchio and architectural events including the 2023 Venice Biennale of Architecture.

“A Fangcang episode” – thesis project by Yi Du.

Fangcang ( 方舱), meaning "square cabin", refers to a makeshift/mobile field hospital used during the COVID-19 pandemic in China.

During the epidemic, eight Fangcang hospitals were built in Hong Kong. As the epidemic subsided, they were suspended one after another. How to handle these temporary isolation facilities has become an essential issue in the post-epidemic era. The target for renovation is Kai Tak Fangcang in the Kowloon district. It is located on a strip of land over the water, once the only runway for Kai Tak Airport.

This thesis tries to explore Fangcang’ spatial potential as an efficient and mature modular organisation from an architectural perspective, thereby creating an urban fabric that coexists with the city and thus better penetrates people`s daily lives.

🪨🪨 STONE 🪨🪨

The Ecologies of Stone research group visited the quarry in Larvik last week, and we wanted to share these fantastic photos.

Ecologies of Stone examines stone extraction and massive stone construction as an interconnected, cyclical process, from the quarry landscape, to building design, and back to quarry rehabilitation.
