This workshop is not about what is good or bad; it’s about the freedom<br />

to choose that knowledge provides. When we have information, and we<br />

know “the facts” about architecture, construction and what it takes to<br />

produce them, we are freer to decide depending on our commitments<br />

with our profession and what we want to leave as “our work legacy” on<br />

the planet. Our aim is that what we learn in these days will be exportable<br />

not only to our future as architecture professionals but to our daily lives.<br />

Using discarded, old stocked, and non-used elements, we built a common<br />

resting area at the university terrace. All these materials were extracted,<br />

manufactured or produced using energy, and therefore, they have their<br />

carbon footprint, and this will have to be taken into account.<br />

We worked hand to hand in collaborative processes, using and reusing<br />

university’s materials and equipment. In teams of 3 or 4 students, we<br />

were delivering from 8 team prototypes that be deployed on the terrace<br />

and work as a whole. Every team was free to design their prototype;<br />

however, they had to respect given maximum measures and occupation<br />

and them mandatory had to think how to link their prototype with<br />

the rest to find out a global solution to the whole terrace area. Every<br />

prototype should have a base or counterweight, a bearing structure that<br />

will support a canopy and finally the possibility to hold plants on them.<br />

This is just a building awareness workshop, we will not save the earth,<br />

but hopefully, we achieved both the academic and conscious mission. We<br />

will have more wisdom about the crucial fact that Global Warming is for<br />

our future decisions as architects and citizens.<br />
