SUBJECT

Ktisis,initsmostancientdefinition, was “clearing, preparation of the land, sowing, planting”, while later the meanings of “establishment”, “construction” and “habitation” were added. The course reintroduces spaces of culture –in both versions: that of civilization and that of agriculture- to contemporary architectural practices.

 

Throughout the spring semester, the students cultivate the seeds of an indigenous variety of

an one-year fruiting plant of their choice. At the same time, they are asked to design and construct a portable system of feeding their plant, after they have studied its nature and needs during the whole period until its full growth. The objective is to grow a healthy plant which will bear fruit and then collect the seeds that will be used for sowing by the students participating in the course in the following academic year.
