Prague. The workshop proposes a design theme regarding the consolidation of one of the cultural systems of Prague around the "citadel" of the legendary ghetto.

It considers the central tissue of Stare Mesto, outlined in the ideal triangulation that from Staromestske Namesti spread the vertices represented by Sv Mikulas, Rudolfinum and Klaster Sv Anezky Ceske.

The theme proposed covers the rehabilitation of the area around Klaster Sv Anezky Ceske, founded in 1234, currently museum of Czech painting and sculpture.

The program includes the project of a museum, articulated through the return of the typological structure of the cloistered convent, in support of existing exhibition, and deployment of a new structure for the Ghetto Memorial Museum of the ancient city, in the adjacent area between the street Kozi, u Milosrdnych and na Frantisku, near the river Vltava.

Teaching format.

The workshop consists of lectures and communications on specific design themes and application contexts. In the first phase the activity of workshop will be concentrated on the correct interpretation of the application ambits, proposed to the students by the recognition (also by the inspections) of the specific contest characters.

At this stage, some lectures will regard the definition of the design theme.

These communications will be supported by some design experience, considered paradigmatic in the history of modern architecture.

In the second phase, the workshop activities will take place through individual and collective adjustments of project proposals for students and, if retained necessary, through specific communications support for the progress of the work.
