This interdisciplinary course explores the structuring role of light in architectural design, in relation to the environment, materiality, comfort, and energy performance. Students develop an exhibition pavilion project based on lighting intentions, using simulation tools, environmental analysis (LCA, comfort, carbon footprint) and architectural storytelling. The final result is a short film summarizing the approach and results.
Teaching team: Evelyne Aebischer, Sergi Aguacil Moreno, Bernard Paule, Andreas Schueler, Iscia Vos.
