Coimbra Architecture Summer Atelier is an intensive workshop organized by the Department of Architecture (DARQ) of the University of Coimbra, Portugal. Combining practical and theoretical modules, CASA proposes to investigate the built environment from an architectural, urban and social perspective, taking Coimbra as a contemporary artefact of reflection and intervention. CASA provides a forum for architectural experiment, the lively exchange of ideas, sharing of knowledge and promoting of a cultural space. Participants will find here a dynamic and interdisciplinary space for interaction with dedicated professionals of contemporary architectural practice, as well as renowned academics committed to teaching and research in this field. Embracing diverse nationalities, cultures and learning processes, CASA intends to promote the exchange of practices, experiences, and ideas across generations, having as its main goal the creation of innovative design proposals for Coimbra.
