The Fund for Digital Transformation and Cybersecurity in Institutions has selected seven projects from among 12 applications, including one fromENSA Normandie. This project will focus on mapping the school's information system. The institution's information system uses numerous interconnections between software programs via technical flows (scripts). The aim of this organization is to standardize data and save processing time.
A significant proportion of these links are common to all ENSA schools (Taiga, Partage, Archirès, etc.), others are shared by some ENSA schools (ADE, CAS, etc.), and others are specific toENSA Normandie.

The aim of the project is to map the interconnected elements of the information system, and to provide a detailed technical file for each interconnection.

ENSAP Bordeaux, ENSAP Lille, ENSA Saint Etienne and ENSA Paris-Malaquais are also partners in this project.

Synergy between Participatory Design and Ecological design -

This lecture aims to explore the coexistence of humans and other species on our planet, with a focus on Hong Kong. Given its high population density and limited land, the lecture examines how participatory design and ecological design should be considered to work together through showcasing research projects conducted by Studio Rosalia Leung. By integrating these two approaches, the goal is to address the idea that cities can accommodate the needs of both humans and other beings, fostering a harmonious relationship between urban development and the natural world.

May 23 and 24 - Dieppe Beaches

Architecture is linked to a territory, to a context, and so as not to forget that architecture is rooted, we want to make it fly. Second-year students chose an architect associated with a room atENSA Normandie.

From this person, the students seized the major typologies with the aim of flying a fragment. These kites will be flown over two days on the beaches of Dieppe. Playing on the presumed heaviness of architecture and its heritage, this workshop engages the student team in a confrontation with constructive and atmospheric realities.

In partnership with the city of Dieppe

Congratulations again to all our graduates!

The representation of stability has long been considered key to architecture's cultural role. In recent years, however, our environment has become ever less stable, and clashes between buildings and natural forces have become frequent. Since Japan has known such clashes through the ages, its architects have demonstrated architectural expressions of both toughness and weakness. In parallel, the nation has displayed a remarkable economic, social, and cultural resilience. Is there a correlation between those expressions of weakness in public buildings and Japan's resilience?
