General description and relevant information La relació de l’habitatge amb l’espai públic ocupa el centre del debat de la ciutat. L’assignatura es planteja com un estudi de casos concrets per reflexionar sobre el tema. Per concretar un àmbit d’estudi acotat, cada anys es preveu escollir un periode concret i fer-hi un tall transversal. En la mesura que la ciutat és una realitat complexe, es pretén introduir tots aquells agents que determinen la idea de ciutat; per suposat l’urbanisme i l’arquitectura, però també pensament, cinema i música, comunicació, tecnologia, etc. EL periode que hem escollit per al curs 2014-2015 és el que pren especial visibilitat l’any 1968 i que podriem fer extensiu als anys que van de 1961 a 1973.

  Description
Introductory activities The subject will analyse and make proposals on other ways of inhabit trough three main
topics: INHABIT; CO-INHABIT; and COEXIST. Each of the subject will be developed in a
week, in collaboration with students come from ENSA Val de Siene (Paris) and the
Architectural School of Vallès (ETSAV).
Seminars It will be structured in three areas and 'laboratories' (understood as experimentation spaces)
which will be developed in the classroom for a week in a semi-intensive way:
Laboratory 1, (will take place at ETSAV), trough the topic: INHABIT, will be studied and deepened about the minimum unit: the room, and its possible aggregations to give rise to
the house
Laboratory 2, (will take place at the EAR), trough the topic: CO-INHABIT, study and deepen about what it means to co-inhabit, what answers can we give today to the new ones
Ways to inhabit collectively and its possible groupings. He will raise the new ones
Relationships that can be established between the family units that make up the house
collective, between the individual and the community that conforms, between the private space and public space, and how this can affect what is the minimum habitable piece and theirs
relationships
Laboratory 3, (will take place at ENSA, Paris), trough the topic: COEXIST, will study and will deepen the relations of the house with the city, through the work of community and public spaces will raise new relationships between housing and the city, between the community of neighbors and society.
Lecture The subject will be accompanied by an inaugural lesson, short theoretical sessions in
the beginning of the class, and visits to paradigmatic cases in the city of Barcelona, of the Camp de Tarragona and Paris.
Personal attention The work will start agile and intense throughout each of the three weeks,
Complementing with work at home, which will be presented and debated in the 1st session of the next teaching week.

Personalized attention
Description
In class, thought of as a workshop, the professors will follow the work of each student, destining the last hour of the class in the sharing of the works.

The subject will be evaluated through the work carried out in the workshop and during visits to Barcelona and Paris.
It is essential to attend 9 of the 10 sessions to be able to be evaluated, and therefore it is essential to travel to Paris. The exercises will be developed in groups of at least 3 people (one in each school). To the extent possible, and in order to reduce the cost of the stay, it will be tried that students also exchange their accommodation. The intensive weeks of work will be specified before enrollment. It is recommended
having completed Urbanism and Project V-VI, which works for collective housing.
