Introduction Week – PUB

During the Introduction Week, students from each level of the three-year interior architecture course took part in a workshop that used Geneva’s public spaces as its study area.  Each group of a dozen students was designated a particular zone where they had to build a “PUB”: a public space, a place to gather, have a drink, perform a ritual, share a moment. The students were given a limited budget and time frame. Moreover, the buildings had to be monomaterial and/or monocolour to ensure a more powerful impact on their chosen locations. Each installation needed to have a story related to its place and respond to an issue or a desire generated by the site in an exchange with its regular users. On the final day of the workshop, the whole group was able to enjoy a tour of these ephemeral PUBS, in which the spaces experienced a day of shared moments.
