HDA RESEARCH LAB | FINAL PRESENTATION

Deutsch

The European network LINA (funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the EU) publishes an annual Open Call for young architects and creative professionals. From more than 200 applicants, the HDA selected four young architectural practises to spend three weeks at the HDA exploring how architecture can respond to severe weather conditions. They collected building typologies that can withstand heavy rain and flooding as well as overheating. The result of the collaboration will be presented at HDA.

Followed by cocktails with and by Lung Peng and fine DJ music.
