Camposaz 39:39 Vicenza – Wood self-construction workshop – Open Call , Vicenza (VI), Veneto / Italien

Camposaz is a wood self-construction workshop in 1:1 scale with the ambition to promote interaction between disciplines and practitioners dealing with architectural design. 

The workshop is open to architects, designers, carpenters, and students. During the workshop, living in close contact, they have to design and physically construct small wood installations, based on specific themes, aiming at enhancing the landscape.

The built project is site specific and it can change according to the conditions in which it is going to be realized. During the workshop design and construction are tight processes and proceed in parallel. The aim of the initiative is to condense in a unique experience immaterial and material aspects of the construction process. Knowledge sharing and adaptability are necessary conditions for a successful result. Camposaz is an open platform without hierarchies and fixed roles: it is an open source initiative in which everyone can bring his own contribution in the development of a process that has no pre-established direction.

In this sense, Camposaz promotes different point of views and new design approaches in problematic urban locations, with the intention to develop a sort of “instinctive architecture” with no prejudices and with a lot of collaborative improvisation.

 

The workshop is entirely free! Participants will only be asked to pay the registration fee for the Camposaz association of € 15.

The calls are open to 10 participants + 1 video maker per workshop.

The 39:39 edition of Camposaz will be in collaboration with Urbana Cooperativa Sociale, the promoter of the In-Mobility project which develops the themes of urban regeneration, sustainable mobility and social animation in 5 high schools in the Province of Vicenza. The objective of the workshop is to create 5 hubs based on a modular system which will be installed in the schools involved in the project. The hubs will have a social aggregation function, support for sustainable mobility (bike repair station) and teaching. The themes will be better defined by the outputs obtained during the workshops conducted with the students as part of the project's training course.
