Thursday, July 11, 2024 from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. - Musée maritime de Rouen -

This workshop, supervised by Ariel Genadt, invites students to draw inspiration from naval architecture to imagine a conversion project for an existing building. The site of the project will be the current Musée maritime fluvial et portuaire de Rouen. The project will showcase the museum's collections in a setting more suited to and expressive of its fluvial context.

While the Armada event reminds residents and tourists of the city's maritime past, it remains fleeting. This workshop aims to reestablish a more lasting presence of maritime heritage in the heart of the city. The project will highlight the current imperatives of ecological transition, namely the sustainable use of natural resources and recycling of industrial resources, while creating habitats that generate a sense of belonging to a community and its cultural heritage. The project will address these objectives by designing a place for exhibition, education, and exchange for city dwellers, using elements of naval architectural vocabulary as formal and structural generators. The work will be carried out in collaboration with the Maritime Museum and its shipbuilding workshop, as well asENSA Normandie woodworking workshop.

Open to all

Projects on display until September

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

As part of the "Nos voisin·e·s" workshop, a group of first-year students fromENSA Normandie Esadhar and the André Malraux Cultural Center in the La Grand'Mare neighborhood. The warm welcome and rich context inspired this team of students to produce a series of works combining drawing, photography, and video, exploring the concepts of encounter and connection, taking into account the urban setting of the two cultural institutions. These works will be on display at the Cultural Center for several days.
