HELLO SUNSHINE – WORKSHOP

Inaugural Week 2022-23

Workshop directors : Valentin Dubois, Bertrand Van Dorp

Assistants : Dany Champion, Kimberley Berney, Paule Perron, Robin Delerce

During the inaugural week, BA students in Interior Architecture from HEAD – Genève carry out specific and ephemeral artistic interventions in the centre of Geneva. The objective of this workshop is to develop formal, technical, and creative projects to spruce up certain places in the city.

These sites are precisely determined by their need to be revitalised. The students analyse the context and offer a series of 8 in situ interventions according to a given kit composed of micro-perforated textile, wooden strips, and cords.

Roofs of buildings, sports grounds, public squares, parks and gardens, and schoolyards are the locations where the students carry out their life-size projects during a sunny interlude.
