Second Workshop Sicily Lab 08
1 + 1 = Three
New forms for Information Technology and Architecture in a mediterranean
context
by Antonino Saggio & nITro
Special Guest Giovanni D'Ambrosio
Gioiosa Marea (ME), 31 Aug– 7 Sep 2008
Antonino Saggio, editor of the book series IT Tevolution in Architecture,
and the group nITro, offer the Second Workshop in Gioiosa Marea, Sicily,
from August 31 to September 7, 2008. Special Guest will be Giovanni D'Ambrosio
who will follow as a teacher the entire workshop.
The workshop is open to designers (architect, planners, product designers,
landscape architects..) at the end of their academic studies or during
the development of their work at graduate level.
The Stake of the Workshop is that 1 + 1 will equal Three!
Which means that the wealth of research in Information technology will
combine with the concrete experience of the implementation of environmental
principles, creative use of vegetation, invention of everyday solutions
for architectural purposes. The combination of these two areas of interest
will lead the search of the participants to new hypotheses.
Particular attention will be raised to innovative uses of ceramics in
construction, design and creation of urban spaces.
The work of designers participating in the seminar, will be enriched daily
by a series of conferences given by architects of great interest operating
in Sicily.
What is offered is an intense period of study and work, but also a creative
and intelligent holiday, in a pleasant seaside resort. Experience has
had great success in 2007 and we are sure that this year we will have
a happy outcome again.
A individual report and evaluation of the research of each participant
will be provided at the end of the seminar
Ask the form with all details for inclusion, which will have a reduced
