The Paris Atelier will be launched at Columbia Global Centers | Europe (Reid Hall, Paris) as a five-year research initiative made possible through the Laboratory for Applied Building Science, directed by Phillip Anzalone, in association with Asaf Gottesman, co-founding partner.
Sébastien of Hugh Dutton Associates started last week working with students as computational instructor (you can see above the blog with some of his references and tutorials for the workshop – hda-paris-atelier.tumblr.com). In the same week, Tomas Saraceno organized a balloon-making workshop and a kite-building workshop.
