land – regulation – ownership – cooperation – hybrid infrastructure
Associating the architectural schools of Zürich and Luxembourg, the team bases its investigation on the issue of land, in particular its real estate and legal status, as a key to understanding and managing the territory on the one hand, and its socio-ecological transition on the other hand. This transition should develop through conceptual proposals at the scale of the territory, the city and the landscape, architectural prototypes and regulatory devices.
