and wall in ceramic material for the contemporary
built environment.”
Company
Cisa Ceramiche
Aim
The aim of the workshop was to develop
innovative solutions of ceramic wall covering and/
or flooring for the tertiary sector.
First, students identified a particular application
domain and then proposed one or more design
solutions. The input has been to look to the future
to imagine new possibilities for interaction, use
and application of ceramic material that could be
integrated with technologies and other materials.
The students worked in four groups working on it
four concepts across a variety of fields of inquiry.
Concept by Diego Florez, Katerina Dimitriou
Coexistence
This concept is investigating the opportunities
for integration between the ceramic material
and green, in particular natural moss. This is
an interesting area of development for the
decoration of interior and exterior walls very much
in line with the contemporary architectural trends.

NEW TILE WALLS
Brief
“Development of innovative concepts of tiles’
systems of for the building industry, with particular
focus to the field of application of the wall
coverings.”
Company
Cisa Ceramiche
Aim
The aim of the workshop was the development
of innovative concepts of tiles for residential or
tertiary buildings, with particular reference to
design solutions suitable for field application of
the wall coverings. The concepts were developed
after an analysis of trends and user expectations.
They all looked new hints to develop the ceramic
wall covering field beyond the traditional
applications.
Concept by Mohamad Hani Mahfouz
This concept is based on a research on interaction
and flexibility of the use of tiles. The solution is
a wall system that holds the tiles and enable the
costumer to rotate them in order to change the
configuration and thus the final aesthetical effect.

BUILDING
WITH USED
CONTAINERS
Brief
“Development of concepts of reuse of containers
in the context of architectural design”.
Company
Container Box
Aim
The theme of the workshop was facing the
issues of empty containers that today fills up our
territories. After getting to our country full of
goods they are not worth being reused or shipped
back to the countries they come from (typically
China). So it was asked to think about a way to give
them a new use and, thus, value.
Concept by Miguel Angel Jiménez
The concept is base on the idea that a shipping
container is not Architecture just because it’s
large enough to house a man. It can be worked to
become a space shaped in Architecture, but also
it can be thought as a component itself, just as a
brick. In this case the “brick” was used to develop
a new concept of prison with an architectural
solution that would easily fit into the urban
contexts.
Concept by Rachid Khalil
This concept proposes to answer to a request
of mobility among people all around the world.
Indeed people move more and more often to
temporarily live and work in other countries. Thus
the solution is to ship your small apartment, which
is a furnished container the fits into a building of
containers. The solutions exploits the existing
system of transport and storage of containers
adding services for the best life quality of final
users.

WORKSHOP 2
UNPLUGGED
BRIEF
Development of concepts for Temporary Exhibition
Pavilion to place in the city centre of Milan
AIM
The aim of the workshop was to develop new
concepts for temporary exhibition pavilion for the
city center of Milan (Piazzetta Reale or Triennale)
to build in occasion of Expo 2015.
During the development of the concept,
students had to develop a concept taking into
consideration the spirit of the pavilion (in terms of
the design, the possible commitment, philosophy
of the pavilion and the relationship with the
chosen area), and the use of the pavilion itself
(such as: library, book shop, info point, loungebar, and museum).
Concept by Caroline Kinsella, Melissa Sobrado,
Juan Felipe Solís
The concept is based on the idea of a pavilion as a
living organism inside the city. This pavilion is made
up of three elements: the sun, the air and the water;
that are the fundamentals for life. In particular, these
elements are important for growing Algae that can
be used for producing bio-fuel.
The philosophy behind this project is to create an
experiential path for highlighting the importance of
sustainable, renewable and non-polluting solutions.

URBAN OASIS
BRIEF
The generation of innovative concepts of
Multipurpose Building Modules with versatility
and flexibility (in the structure, composition,
customization) suitable for temporary and
diversified uses (from residential to commercial)
typical of large events, such as the Expo 2015 that
will take place in Milan and its surroundings.
COMPANY
Bertone
AIM
The aim of the workshop was to develop
innovative concepts of multipurpose building
modules that have to be placed in the urban
and peripheral areas outside the Expo’s Site.
In particular, modules should be temporary
structures used for two alternative purpose:
support services to the Expo events (i.e.
accommodation for visitors or temporary workers,
temporary offices, dining areas, retail, support
to tourism, etc..); or support independent
but complementary activities (sponsored by
companies / entities outside the Expo). Concepts
were developed taking into consideration the
principles of assembly and standardization with a
view to industrial prefabrication.
Furthermore, we asked students to consider the
end of life or re-use of the product (or parts of it).
That means they had to plan what will happen to
the module after the end of Expo 2015.

temporary expositions in the “Expo Village” 2015.
COMPANY
Bertone
AIM
The aim of the workshop was to develop
innovative concepts of building modules for “Expo
Village” 2015. The objective of the village was to
accommodate companies and offer all support
services that are necessary. Therefore it was
required to design a modular system to build the
overall plan of the village, the exposition stands
and all common areas (food court, reception,
concert area, ecc.). This building solution had
to be based on a flexible modular system that
ensures different configurations and could be
disassembled and re-used on other occasions.
CONCEPT BY Gustavo Villar Federico González
Enas Eisa Andrea Castro
This concept takes inspiration from the nature.
“Expo Village” 2015 seems a forest of light. Paths
are surrounding by technological trees that create
a pleasurable and an engaging atmosphere.
