three little pigs

This workshop for children modelled along the story of the three little pigs. ‘I huff you and puff you and blow your house down’, says the big scary wolf. The three little pigs build a house – each one with the materials at hand. Made from straw, from wood and from bricks, the three houses are typologies of architectural shelters. The children build these model houses, and play the story. Age 4 and up.

my house

How is a house built? What craftsmen are involved in the construction? What is the work of the architect? How does the house function? We will build together an architectural model in the scale of 1:50. Children are introduced to the structure, functions and making of a house while playing an architect, a builder, a painter, a carpenter.

my part of town

On the way to kindergarden, to school, to library and swimming pool, while doing shopping, kids explore their environment. The seminar takes them on an architectural stroll that explains the buildings, the places, the organisations of the neighbourhood. The children learn about their environment while drawing plans, filling out individual city maps, photographing and sketching situations of daily life. Age 6 and up.
