Studio lead: Line Fontana

The Studio Program and Heritage focuses on architectural intervention in the existing housing structure. This semester, under the title “Occupé à habiter” (Busy to live), ten students analyzed a particular case of living together, namely squats between 1980 and 2010 in Geneva. By crossing historical archives and artistic glances, they have restored and reinterpreted squats’ interior spaces. Their approach allowed them to highlight the architectural features of the appropriation of an interior heritage.
