[SERENDIPITY]: The Antwerp Design Seminars & Lectures are an international event taking place each year at the College of Design Sciences. Its aim is to stimulate cross boundary thinking in design and to familiarize students with an interdisciplinary approach to design problems.
The Antwerp Design Seminars and Lectures intend to act as a forum for faculty and student exchange on an international level. At the same time, it is an informal platform to discuss actual problems related to design education.

Il progetto di recupero e valorizzazione del borgo medioevale di Civitella del Tronto (TR), formula una proposta generale che può intendersi come applicazione operativa della ricerca ‘Active-actions’: un paese quasi del tutto abbandonato viene rivitalizzato attraverso delle strategie progettuali alla piccola e alla grande scala che si fondano sul presupposto di considerare l’esistente una risorsa e il progetto una attività  di negoziazione sostenibile. In questo contesto operativo, a Civitella viene promossa la realizzazione del primo Centro Commerciale Naturale e Sostenibile con l’obiettivo di promuovere un diverso uso del territorio che ne determini come unica conseguenza lo sfruttamento sconsiderato.

Paul Burgstaller and Ursula Faix from bad architects group are currently teaching Urban Design at the University for Business and Technology in Prishtina, Kosova and have invited us (Gennaro Postiglione and Lorenzo Bini) to lead a joined workshop in Prishtina in November. We are therefore inviting students from Politecnico di Milano that might be interested in partecipating to send a brief curriculum and an application – as well as any question or further information – to mail@lablog.org.uk. Our wish is to be able to select around 12 students before the end of September in order to organize the trip to Prishtina with the necessary advance.

From 20 to 22 of April, Gennaro Postiglione and the Swedish artist Olle Dahl will drive students from Mats Edstrom course “Working on/around Military Architecture Heritage” (School of Architecture, LTH, Lund) on the “room-experience” workshop: recording room-qualities through a sequence of room-alterations. Students are invited to introduce one alteration per time (objects, materials, etc. brought form home or found on site) and to record “reactions” of the room they use for the setting. Those records should lead to listing/naming/understanding room spacial & emotional potential qualities. The sites are located on the island of Aspo, just in front of Karlskrona (on Est coast of South Sweden) and they consist of a number of military fortifications from the beginning of the XXth century.

On 23th results will be visible at: room-experience sequences
