: Andreas Nassos, Landscape
Architect |
Vitaverde,
Greece & Serbia
THEME: WORKSHOP FULLY BOOKED
- DO NOT CHOOSE
Vitaverde consists of a team of flexible people, constantly
looking for challenges to stretch its boundaries, offering
products and services in the field of greenery. The company
has experience in construction of vertical gardens, roof
gardens, interior gardens and gardens at different private
and professional spaces. Besides the possibility to design,
Vitaverde also realises the projects and provides customers
with the maintenance needed. The materials that are used
in construction, but also in maintenance, are chosen to
have minimal impact on the natural environment. The team
does not discriminate between size of project or space,
but looks for projects out of the ordinary that inspire
them to be creative. The goal of Vitaverde is to engage
many different aspects through design, use of plants,
products and solutions that fit harmonically to the surrounding
environment. www.vitaverde.gr
Workshop location: The workshop will be located
at the Serbian Chamber of Commerce, Resavska 13-15, Belgrade
map | website
Workshop brief: The go al of this workshop
is to add urban green to the existing buildings of the
Serbian Chamber of Commerce following the values of sustainability,
biodiversity and social interaction. We will strive to
provide a solution for the space that will have an impact
on the building, the people who use it every day and the
wider area. We hope to prove that buildings for public
use can play a significant role in the attempt to make
modern cities more viable and in improving the quality
of life of the citizens. Keeping in mind the nature of
the workshop, we also want the design to be feasible,
so it can be realized in the near future. We will be guided
by the possible use of green in all surfaces in a build
environment, interesting implemented projects worldwide,
the history and style of the building itself, the character
and history of the city of Belgrade and of course the
Balkan spirit. |

Workshop location: Primary School Drinka Pavlovic,
Kosovska 19, Belgrade.
Workshop brief: "Garden to Go" is an event scenography,
a fragment of otherness, as a catalizator for social interaction
in public urban space. The accent is on temporality and
mobility. The space is reactivated, but is not finished
in terms of the product. It develops through usage (growing
and nurturing). It investigates the unexploited possibilities
for integrating an element of garden into urban milieu.
Participants will be inspired by the work of various international
organizations and designers working with similar goals,
and will see diverse short films on the garden to go topic.
Goal of the workshop is to shape environmentally aware
public spaces for social interaction, using principles
and elements of "garden". Awakening individuals, local
communities and wider public on the importance to appreciate,
grow and nurture, maintain and build better, healthier
and more socially accessible space (environmental, ethic
and esthetic dimension). Principles usually applied on
buildings are scaled on anthropological dimension where
individuals interact with space through the actual garden
object. |

www.ortlos.com
Workshop location: Usce Shopping center Bulevar
Mihaila Pupina 6, shop no 1.84 on 1st floor map
| website
Workshop brief: Orlos, being known for their work
on experimental, holistic and virtual architecture, will
mentor workshop for the best and creative solution of
Eco-urban systems. The current discussion about
sustainability suggests that the modern society is a kind
of ballast for the planet and detrimental to the environment.
Therefore, we need to provide proactive solutions in search
for future developments, which are not only limiting and
restrictive to the current life-style in order to achieve
the sustainability and the human-nature equilibrium. Main
design element is a high-performance envelope, which will
be elaborated as an intelligent green surface, gaining
solar energy (photovoltaic), daylight, natural ventilation,
providing shadow, improving micro-climate and be the buffer
zone for different heat zones. Result of the workshop
would be to propose systems with absolute efficiency,
that allows implementation of a meaningful prototype for
an urban eco-system. The interest here is the creation
of heterogeneity, a climatically dynamic activation of
natural forces. The whole performance of the buildings
should be in balance.
The following parameters will be considered with equal
importance: ecological material, aesthetic - art of construction,
form, programmatic functions, life cycle, renewable energy,
usage, interactivity, sensitivity and networks. |

usage. Centre Tesla's mission is continuing further work
on studying, understanding and spreading to the public
worldwide Tesla Doctrine, a set of ideas Nikola Tesla
exhibited in numerous articles and interviews published
in the early 20th century, in which he presented his views
on the future of our civilization. One of Centre Tesla
reason of existence is its work on creating Social Innovations
that benefit True Global Sustainability. This is done
through educational, dynamic platform for launching scientific
and ethical solutions to problems of diverting energy
of development of human civilization and a constant research
campaign on the holistic formulas of sustainability. Centre
Tesla nourishes new authentic worldwide thinkers and implementers

Workshop location: Kulturni centar Grad, Ulica
Brace Krsmanovic 4, Belgrade. map
| website
Workshop brief: Centre Tesla workshop team will
use the guiding principles of Tesla's Doctrine and Nikola
Tesla quotes regarding true sustainability and development
for the inspiration before and during the workshop. The
goal of the workshop will be to gain a full conceptual
design of a new family living house predominantly meant
for rural area that will be completely self-sufficient
and is going to be constructed only with natural and traditional
materials, natural waste, and secondary, recyclable materials.
Also the specific climate in which it is located should
be taken under account. Innovative solutions which could
be applied in the construction of the house would provide
most of the energy needs from renewable sources. Principles
of Permaculture should be taken into account. This will
result in a universal embodiment of sustainable construction:
- ecological
- sustainable
- energy efficient
- completely secure
- economically viable
- socially acceptable, and
- culturally traditional. |

ECODESIGNER: practical ways of green architecture.
Sustainable development in architecture, space remodeling
through Form, Function and building construction in contemporary
urban surrounding. The goal of the workshop is to remodel
urban space with energy efficiency guidelines while improving
human aspects of space usage and long term exploitation.The
workshop will be done in two parts:
1. Form remodeling with energy efficiency guidelines through
BIM (building information model) space shapes. Literature
with British and German standards available. Software
in use: ArchiCAD BIM
2. Building Materials and energy analysis through Energy
Evaluation functionality based on entirely new technology
(e.g. zone-boundary based building model geometry analysis,
analytic weather data input option, etc.). This technology
allows architects to perform reliable dynamic energy evaluation
of their BIM model within ArchiCAD, relying on BIM geometry
analysis and accurate hour-by-hour online weather data
of the building's location. Software in use: ECODESIGNER
Choosing best solution for building remodeling will be
held on last day of workshop with evaluation of solutions.
