MAURIZIO SCARCIGLIA RUNS ‘FUR’ STUDIO ON SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY

Maurizio Scarciglia is invited to run the FUR (Future urban Regions) studio 2016 at the Fontys Academy of Architecture and Urbanism in Tilburg, NL.

The studio will focus on investigating the urban fabric of Eindhoven, its functioning and the bases to envisage realistic scenarios of densification, compared to the consequences that each will bring to the current urban development. Students will be free to question different ways of implementation by testing solutions for the completion of existing unexploited urban clusters, as well as the development of new areas or the densification of clusters that are already developed and fully consolidated. The focus will be kept on how the city will accommodate the new inhabitants, while reducing the environmental impact of its new population, looking specifically at mobility.
