The Architecture & Construction group teaches architectural and urban design at the single-cycle master's degree program in Building Engineering - Architecture.
The teaching method is rooted in the convention that Architecture should not be conceived without constructive and technical awareness.
The didactic topics are constantly updated to guarantee students a training path that has solid references to the contemporary situation of cities and territories
In addition to official courses, the group develops architectural design workshops on frontier architectural topics also involving International Architecture Schools.

The ISS aims to offer an opportunity for design practice and reflection on the tools of architecture and urbanism, starting from the specificities of the place and the subjects involved. The workshop will range from reading the place, interacting with the subjects who live there, listening to and understanding the questions, designing, and presenting a solution, to the concrete realisation of an everyday object through the reuse of waste materials (bins, dustpans, plastic bottles, etc.) in a «ready-made» key.
The course has two main objectives.
Firstly, the ISS proposes a co-design experience to give students the opportunity to experience the relationship with the client, the collaboration between subjects with different competence roles.
Secondly, the ISS aims to bring students closer to architectural practices and the reading of urban space, combining the background of design culture acquired during university studies with considerations of undeniable topicality linked to a "circular" and "sustainable" approach to the reuse of materials with a life cycle that is not yet exhausted or running out, considered as "precious raw materials" to be reinterpreted.

The International Winter School main topic is the design of adaptable housing scenarios able to offer a short or medium-term accommodation to people with temporary housing needs or in a state of economic and social vulnerability. Joint studies between both the disciplines of “Architectural and urban design” and “Urban Planning” have been underway at DICATAM, with the aim of finding temporary housing arrangements. The main characteristic of these arrangements is the temporariness, which stimulates the debate on contemporary domestic landscape, urban planning and building regulations and temporary land use.
The International Winter School endorses sustainable construction solutions with a design able to guarantee the balance of the site, from different points of view. The architectural choices allow to offer modulated and adaptable domestic solutions, using smart technologies and off-site construction systems.
The area of via Corridoni in Brescia, owned by the Municipality and managed by La Rete Società Cooperativa Sociale Onlus, has been identified as a starting point for a first “integrated” food for though, because of its current atypical housing system, which provides some good practice examples among its many contradictions. The former, if duly investigated can lead to an interesting housing model for other global urban realities. The area will be suggested as case study to the students of the International Winter School who will be invited to design redevelopment possibilities of the site through pragmatic actions.

The issues debated within the ISS focus on the principle of “impermanence” of contemporary living and the need to explore the construction potential of housing that can be built and dismantled (disassembled) quickly, at reduced costs, and made as autonomous as possible from the point of view of systems and energy supply and flexible in its use, establishing ever-changing relationships with places. It is also necessary to take into account that experimental artefacts produced by the avant-garde, since the first decades of the twentieth century, are now largely feasible thanks to the advancement and innovations of technology. The ISS will work on the potential of a prefabricated housing prototype. The model, at a scale of 1:1, is the starting point for the design operations to be carried out during the intensive workshop.

The Winter School was organized by the Architecture & Construction group in collaboration with the Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería - Facultad de Arquitectura, Urbanismo y Artes de Lima (Peru) as part of an international cooperation agreement signed between the two universities. The training objective was focused on topical issues relating to urban architectural regeneration, the redevelopment of architectural artefacts and areas of the city in a state of decay. Working groups were formed, made up of Italian and Peruvian students, flanked by academic tutors and qualified experts with a broad disciplinary background, capable of restoring an alternative vision to the traditional design process.
