Hortitecture 02 Symposium

November 15th, 2016, 10am - 8pm
Technische Universität Braunschweig, Pavillon

The Hortitecture 02 Symposium is the second of a series of public lectures, focusing on alternative sustainable building strategies that explore the synergies combing architecture and plants.

How are plants integrated within the building system? What kinds of benefits can a new kind of nature-artifact combination offer? How do the plantings affect the overall environment and architectural design? What is the maintenance and resilience factor and how scalable are these new solutions?

The Hortitecture 02 symposium will take part on November 15th, 2016 at the TU Braunschweig. The following speakers confirmed:

Alina Schick - visioverdis, Stuttgart, Gerhild Bornemann - German Aerospace Center, Institute of Biomedical Research, Cologne, Daniel Röhr - UBC Vancouver, Marion Waller - Reinventing Paris, Paris, Klaus K. Loenhart - terrain: , Graz / Munich, Richard Hassell and Wong Mun Summ - WOHA, Singapore, Christoph Ingenhoven - Düsseldorf, Singapore We think that architectural design is a form of research and creative exploration. It requires the observation and evaluation of changes in our environment in order to create strategies that address current and future challenges.

The Hortitecture 02 Symposium is part of a research seminar to compare and analyze architectural solutions that are made with, made for or made from vegetation. Hortitecture will be a growing focal subject that intends to network core disciplines in order to foster more sustainable environments. At the TU Braunschweig architects, landscape architects and environmental scientists constitute research cooperations (Prof. Almut Grüntuch-Ernst - Prof. Gabriele Kiefer - Prof. Boris Schröder-Esselbach - Prof. Stephan Weber). In studying the intersections between architectural, horticultural and technological practices, our goal is to transfer knowledge beyond building design to a larger urban scope, creating better, more sustainable future cities.
