Summer Architecture Workshop - ReUse Italy

After four editions of an international architecture competition and the success of last year’s edition, the Reuse Italy project is scheduling the second edition of a Summer Architecture Workshop in Florence, from July 22nd to July 31st, 2022.
This educational experience will offer a complete framework of knowledge about the issues inherent to architectural heritage restoration. Thanks to the lectures, given by international architects and professors, participants will be able to deepen themes such as the principles of restoration, the relationship between ruin and new building, the inclusion of new functions within a historical architecture, the traditional building methods, the historical and critical analysis. The workshop, on the other hand, will be the occasion to practice on a reuse project and to prove that the reuse of the architectural heritage is possible.
The workshop, open to students and young architects, asks the participants to reuse and transform the castle of Montemassi (Roccastada, Grosseto) and the projects will be displayed on a public final exhibition.
Early registration starts on March 14th, whereas regular registration starts on April 29th. The enrolment deadline is May 31st. The international teaching staff is composed of: Max Dudler, Meritxell Inaraja, Fala Atelier, Carles Enrich, Edoardo Milesi, Prof. Maurizio De Vita (University of Florence), Prof. Alessandro Merlo (University of Florence).
