Description
The workshop ‘Tourism Habitat. The Re-use of the Abandoned Xenia Hotel in Tsagarada, Pelion’ will focus on the case-study of the Xenia Hotel in Tsagarada, on the Pelios Mountain, designed in 1957 by Charalampos Sfaellο(1914-2004) that since 2000 has been in a state of abandonment. Participants will investigate new strategies of temporary dwelling, that should be flexible and inclusive and that, at the same time, should pay attention to the specific climatic and environmental conditions of a certain place, envisioning future scenarios for tourism as well as to challenge the possibility of the re-use of abandoned buildings.

Clara San Millán: I am an architect who moved to illustration, narrative and comics fields, driven by my passion for drawing. After a two years stop in Denmark I have been living and working in Zurich for seven years now. In this time, I have developed images for other architects. At the same time, I have also collaborated with editorial projects in Switzerland, UK, Italy and Spain and exhibited my work in Zurich, Luzern, London and Madrid. I edit my own fanzines and comics and I am currently working on a comic book together with a Spanish Editorial house.
