This spring semester, students from architecture and engineering schools across Switzerland are invited to collectively design and build an urban stage for Lausanne’s biggest open-air festival.
A series of workshop with 18 students will take place in Lausanne throughout the semester, culminating in the construction of the installation in the summer and the official opening of Festival de la Cité on July 4.
The workshops are organized by la–clique, an independent platform for exchange and experimentation around architecture. Since the formation of the collective in 2019, la-clique has been questioning traditional working models by developing design methods based on group intelligence and interdisciplinarity.
10-12 March: Concept, 11-14 April: Design I, 18-19 May: Design II, 8-12 June: Prefabrication, 1-3 July: Construction, 4-9 July: Festival, 10 July: Disassembly.
This hands-on project is a unique opportunity to link radical pedagogies, collective care-taking and practical experience. In the space of a few months, we will develop a project together, from its first steps until its construction and appropriation by the public.
Join the team!
