THE FUTURE OF BUILDING Vernacular + Visionary = Future
Research for new solutions for the built environment as a result of low tech and visionary technologies in times of climate change Climate change is one of the biggest challenges of our time and the consequences of climate change are already making themselves felt globally. Extreme weather events are becoming increasingly common. Statistically, heat waves, storms and floods are getting more and more intense and it is likely that storms will continue to increase in frequency in the future. In the framework of the European programme LINA we are organising workshops and seminars with experts and planners on this topic. This project aims to respond to climate challenges in the construction industry and find workable solutions by researching and combining well-established and new research results in the field of construction methods and materials – bringing together the all-time best.
PART II 13.–27.02.2024 | Research Lab in Stuttgart
Building from the research of the LINA Fellows in spring 2023 at HDA in Graz, in which traditional as well as new, sustainable building types were gathered and documented, in the second part of the research lab we will initiate a design lab. In cooperation with the Chair for Building Construction, Building Technology, and Design, Prof. Martin Ostermann, University Stuttgart, a workshop will take place February 13–27, 2024. Five Fellows will work with us to develop new ideas for climate-resilient designs and projects.
The aim is to develop new typologies for buildings in regions that are affected by severe weather/flooding or overheating/drought. Each of the Fellows will lead a group of approximately three students with whom they will co-develop new designs as response to climatic challenges. These will be depicted with the help of plans, images, and models. The institute is equipped with material samples and a 3D printer, which will be made available for model production.
The goal at the end of the HDA research program is to present all results from Workshop I 2023 and Workshop II 2024 together in an exhibition and publication (Autumn 2024) at HDA.

THE RESEARCH TEAMS/ LINA-FELLOWS IN STUTTGART
Alberto Roncelli is an Italian architect currently based in Copenhagen. He graduated from the Politecnico di Milano and moved to the Danish capital in 2021, where he works as an architect and circular design specialist at GXN Innovation. In addition, Alberto pursues personal design research with a particular focus on urban transformation and adaptive reuse architecture. Over the last three years, his projects have been recognised in international competitions and awards such as Europan 17, Superscape, Ethical Design Award, Prix Wilmotte and The Prix de Genève for Experimental Architecture.
continentale is an architecture practice based in Zurich run by Giulio Galasso and Natalia Voroshilova. The practice works on public projects of different scales across Europe, including the climate adaptation of a post-war housing neighbourhood in Kassel, and the transformation of an abandoned building into senior housing in Rivoli. Fighting against vacancy and depopulation, the practice is working on the project for the reuse of an abandoned XVII century palace in Paestum and of a farm in Roccadaspide (SA). Natalia Voroshilova is an architect and researcher based in Zurich. She graduated from Politecnico di Milano and ETH Zurich with a thesis on sustainable strategies for the densification of Zurich, and she is now teaching assistant at Politecnico di Milano. Her field of research is XX century Italian middle-class housing, and together with Giulio Galasso she lectured at Accademia di Architettura di Mendrisio, TU Delft, FAUP Porto, Biennale svizzera del territorio, ENSA Paris Val-de-Seine, and Politecnico di Torino. Giulio Galasso is an architect and researcher based in Zurich. He graduated from Politecnico di Milano, IUAV and TU Munich, and he is currently a researcher at the Chair of Christ and Gantenbein at ETH Zurich. He has collaborated with several Swiss architecture firms and in 2023, together with Natalia Voroshilova, he founded continentale, an architecture practice based in Zurich.
Jade Apack is a French architect and independent researcher. In her polymorphous practice she blends constructive, reflective, and artistic processes, focusing on "building transparency" - an allegory of food transparency in construction. More broadly, she is interested in the notion of “transparency” in the way we act and build societies. She notably co-founded Lost&Find, engaging citizens in territorial planning. Jade's work has been featured at different events, workshop, and exhibitions all around Europe."
Helen McFadden (Dublin) is an architectural PhD Researcher and Sustainability Scholar at the University of Limerick. Her studies are focused on “Re-thinking the Construction of the Coastal Edge in the Face of Climate Change”. She holds a Master of Architecture degree from the “Architecture and Landscape” postgraduate unit at SABE, TU Dublin. Helen follows particular interests in cultural landscapes, climate, construction and design through drawing, writing and photography.
Dérive (Brussels) is a practice operating between architecture, public space and urban strategies. A collaboration founded by Hedwig van der Linden and Kevin Westerveld with the motivation to provide air within complex transition challenges. We create space for dialogue and make connections by (co)creating local coalitions already during the research and design process. In doing so, we start from the qualities and resources of existing habitats. Kevin Westerveld is an architect and educator. He studies architecture at Delft University of Technology and ETH Zürich and gained experience at several international practices before starting Dérive.
Das HDA – Haus der Architektur ist Netzwerkpartner im EU-geförderten Programm LINA. Der Zusammenschluss aus über 30 europäischen Kulturinstitutionen und Veranstaltungsplattformen fördert junge ArchitektInnen und Kreative aus Europa und bietet ihnen eine internationale Plattform innerhalb des Netzwerks an. Im Rahmen des LINA Call for Projects können sich junge Talente bewerben und nach einem vorgeschalteten Auswahlverfahren z.B. an Ausstellungen, Biennalen, Vorträgen, Workshops, Publikationen in ganz Europa teilnehmen.
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. As part of the European funding programme LINA, HDA is hosting a three-year research lab with young architectural practises from Europe.
Heatwaves, storms and floods show the consequences of climate change. In 2023 and 2024, the HDA invited young architects from Europe to develop innovative solutions for more resilient cities and buildings. The ‘Bioclimatic Actions’ exhibition presents the results of these workshops.
