Natur wird Architektur und Architektur wird Natur.

 

PART 1

In a participative process with the inhabitants of Zaldibia (north of Spain), this Bachelor Project collaborates with the inhabitants of the Village. Throughout the year, we spend multiple hours on site and were in contact with all different groups of age. After each visit, projects were continuously adapted to the needs of the people. Each group of two specialized in a certain field.

Our focus was to bring nature to the center.

PART 2

In the second half of the year, the groups of two were merged into bigger groups of four to seven people. The goal was to combine the intents and design solutions of each project and not to follow a knock-out strategy. 

A focus was set on one of the facets of the merged Project which then was continuously developed up until the final journey to Zaldibia, Spain. 

​

On-site the final adjustments were made and a Prototype was developed. 

It is to say, that all seven facets are one together and not each an isolated part within a Project. 

The creation of Metagroups made it possible to collaborate more efficiently between the groups.
