Habitat Change Lecture

The Habitat Change Lecture is a two hours presentation about up-to-date environmental facts in relation with architecture and urbanism, explaining principles of climate and oceanography, pointing how our Habitat is deteriorating because of consumerism. Environmental paradigms related to Habitat Loss are explained.

Habitat Change Workshop

The Organic Architecture Workshop is offered as an intensive one week design workshop for undergraduate and graduate students of architecture. In the first two days they receive up-to-date facts about Earth's biology, including concepts mentioned above. During days three to five they explore, analyse and sketch solutions for environmental paradigms: Students are urged to create straightforward concepts. Each proposal is exposed and discussed in groupal Crits.

OAHU - Organic Architecture Habitat Unit

The OAHU ¹, Organic Architecture Habitat Unit is as a one semester architecture course for last-year students or graduates. It is a design unit focused on a deep study of the current Earth's Habitat Loss crisis. Pouchulu offers six lectures on a roll. Students receive up-to-date facts about geological, climate and oceanographic principles related to Organic Architecture and Urbanism. They work on one short design exercise and a final project. They are urged to use audacity to present architectural solutions, to solve the Six Organic Paradigms: Flexible Programmes, Organic Materials, Passive Energy, Light Mobility, Nature Integration, Freedom of Thought.

The main goal of the Organic Architecture Programme is to plant a common-sense, empirical and sensible seed in the spirit of young professionals.

Note 1: Oahu is also the third largest of the Hawaiian islands where Honolulu, capital of Hawaii, is located. It is the site of Pearl Harbor... quite a coincidence: our OAHU creates a base for defending Earth's Habitat.
