AHO - Institute of Urbanism and Landscape

The Milanese Canon. Lorenzo Degli Esposti is an Italian architect, urban designer, and researcher based in Milan. He is co-founder of Degli Esposti Architetti, established in 2006 together with Paolo Lazza. The office works across architecture, urbanism, landscape, and infrastructure design, with a particular focus on metropolitan housing and the reinterpretation of the Italian palazzo type. Degli Esposti received a PhD in Architecture and Urbanism from the Politecnico di Milano in 2008, with research centered on the work of Peter Eisenman. During this period he worked directly in Eisenman’s New York office. Alongside practice, he teaches architectural composition and landscape design at several European universities and has participated in exhibitions and biennials including the Venice Architecture Biennale and the Milan Triennale. In 2015 he curated the Architecture Pavilion for the EXPO 2015 Belle Arti program in Milan. His built work includes projects such as Residenze Carlo Erba, Casa Tersicore, Casa Selene, and Domus Thalia, characterized by a formally rigorous language combining Italian typological traditions with contemporary abstraction.

Super uke på prosjektet Arealer under press i Varanger, der vi ser på hva som er god arealbruk i en varmere fremtid: Hvordan ta vare på og restaurere den historiske jordbruksmarken i Varanger? Hvordan kan gjengrodd gressmark bli god engmark for høyproduksjon og beite for rein og sau? Spreke og fremoverlente Vardø kommune ønsker full oversikt over sine arealer slik at de kan planlegge best mulig for en fremtid preget av økende gjengroing, turisme og utbygging.
Vi kartlegger blant annet lokale bønder som jobber iherdig og nyskapende for å bli kvitt den allestedsnærværende ildtue-marken, skaper frøbanker og restaurerer artsrik engmark.
På dette seminaret spurte vi ulike land-brukere hva de vet om slåtting, beitemark, gressland and torvtaking i tidligere tider og hva de trenger nå.

Nå skal vi ta opp et nytt kull studenter til AHOs Videreutdanningsmaster i urbanisme. De starter som deltidsstudenter i januar 2025.
Vi gleder oss til å møte disse engasjerte fagpersonene som blir studenter på AHO – og til faglige utvekslinger mellom forskere, eksperter og studenter.
Da diskuterer vi bærekraftig by- og stedsutvikling, de forskjellige bylandskapene, byforming, byteori, verktøy, metoder, og mere til.

Videreutdanningsmaster i urbanisme Ved å ta en videreutdanningsmaster i urbanisme styrker du din faglige kunnskap, får en oppdatert kompetanse på fagfeltets forsknings- og utviklingsarbeid, og blir en del av et unikt fagfellesskap. Du vil lære om byplanhistorie og nyere byteori, og om utfordringer, teorier og løsninger knyttet t...

Book talk: Pedagogical Experiments in Architecture for a Changing Climate
Edited by Luis Callejas, Jørgen Tandberg, Tulay Atak and Jonathan Scelsa.

Join us for the launch of the book Pedagogical Experiments in Architecture for a Changing Climate.
This book presents a series of pedagogical experiments translating climate science, environmental humanities, material research, ecological practices into the architectural curriculum.

Balancing the science and humanities, it exposes recent pedagogical experiments from renown educators, while also interrogating a designer’s agency between science and speculation in the face of climate uncertainty. The teaching experiments are presented across four sections: Abstraction, Organization, Building, and Narrative, exposing core parts of an architect’s education and how educators can simultaneously provide fundamental skills and constructive literacy while instigating environmental sensibilities. Chapters cover issues such as water infrastructure, remediating materials, methods of disassembly and adaptive reuse, as well as constructing new aesthetic categories of climate change.

Written and edited by expert design educators actively engaged in experimenting in new forms of pedagogy, this book will be of great use to architecture instructors at all levels looking to renew their teaching practices to more directly address the climate emergency. It will also appeal to those academics across the built environment interested in the ways design can affect and adapt to climate change.

The book is edited by Luis Callejas (AHO), Jørgen Tandberg Tandberg (AHO), Tulay Atak (Die Angewandte ) and Jonathan Scelsa (Pratt)

Ruten – fra parkeringsplasser til aktiv bypark Ruten bypark er en solskinnshistorie fra en regnfull region. På innbyggernes premisser har Sandnes fått en urban bypark for alle – bokstavelig talt et lysende ikon for inkludering. 

Nå som oppmerksomheten på naturtap endelig begynner å få litt fart, kan vi hjelpe til ved å signére denne!

Signer vårt brev til statsminister Jonas Gahr Støre. Vi står midt i en naturkrise. Og nå trenger vi din stemme for å vise regjeringen hvor viktig det er å stoppe ødeleggelsen av naturen vår.
