Located in the commune of Darnétal near Rouen (76), the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Normandie has been housed since 1984 in a former elastic strap factory, the Lucien Fromage factory, which bears witness to the architecture of the late 19th century, in the heart of a 2.5 hectare park characteristic of the landscape model. The building, rehabilitated by the architect Patrice Mottini, now offers 4,000 m2 of floor space dedicated to the teaching of architecture.

Podcast France Culture - Ecological architecture: Rouen as a case study

On Wednesday June 7, 2023, François Fleury was the guest of Baptiste Muckensturm on his program Les Enjeux territoriaux on France Culture.

How can we build low-carbon buildings that are habitable in high temperatures, and how can we adapt existing buildings to meet new environmental requirements? François Fleury, engineer and director of the Architecture, Territories and Environment laboratory, and lecturer at the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Normandie, provides the answer in Rouen, a city where architecture has a strong heritage value.

Rurality and participation" off-site workshop, a dedicated website

From April 29 to May 6, 2023, first-year master's students fromENSA Normandie ENSA Paris-La-Villette, along with two young professional architects, were invited to stay in Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire to work with local residents on issues raised by the relationship between heritage and ecological transition. More specifically, the aim was to contribute to the study of project possibilities on the site of a future eco-neighborhood, to help reflect on how to welcome sustainable tourism extended to new populations, particularly families with children, and finally to contribute to many other topics, in particular built, natural, and intangible heritage, the characterization of the region's unique features, its potential, and its future. This residency was carried out in partnership with the municipality of Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire, ENSA Normandie Paris-La-Villette, the Didattica association, and the Petite Cité de Caractère association.

Conference - Bamboo in ecological design

30 – Jean Duminy Amphitheater –

Bamboo is an ecological material. It can store carbon, provide ecosystem services, contribute to soil and water management. Moreover, bamboo has become the cultural symbol of many regions and has long been associated with everyday life. After being long forgotten and considered the "poor man's wood", bamboo has recently made a comeback on the design scene. With its durability and versatility, bamboo is available to us to develop ecological design concepts.

Conference - Ecology and Disciplinary Decompartmentalization

6pm - Jean Duminy Amphitheatre -
as part of the conference "What architecture does to ecology" organized by the ATE laboratory

*EDIT* to follow the conference live: https://webtv.normandie-univ.fr/lives/colloque-ecologie-et-decloisonnement-disciplinaire/

Aristotle defines economy as the art of managing a household. Ernst Haeckel defines ecology as the interaction of living beings within an environment, seen as a shared household, a co-ownership. One definition of an architect could be one who, through in-depth study - formal or informal - has addressed the question of habitat and inhabitation; the interaction between living beings, and the physical reality of their shared envelope. Does such a "training" prepare one to be more lucid about ecological issues on the scale of a landscape, a country, a planet? This is the question that Lionel Devlieger's conference will address, bringing arguments in favor of, but also against, this postulate.

 

Lionel Devlieger is an engineer-architect and historian. He is co-founder of Rotor, a Brussels-based organization specialized in the study of current material culture.
Rotor promotes the debate on issues related to resources, waste and obsolescence in the building sector through research projects, exhibitions, conferences and publications. Rotor also coordinates large-scale dismantling operations, collaborates on architectural projects and carries out design projects.
Lionel Devlieger has taught at universities in Europe and the United States (UC Berkeley, TU Delft, Columbia University, AA School, among others). He is co-author of Deconstruction and Reuse, 2018, a textbook on the reuse of building elements. Since September 2021, he is an associate professor at the Department of Architecture and Urban Planning at Ghent University, where he teaches, among other things, the history of circular design and modern building ecologies.
