THE COURSE

Architects have always been asked to breathe new life into ancient architectures inherited from the past or into historical – often monumental – artifacts that no longer respond to the customs and needs of contemporary society. Nevertheless, the ancient architectures tell our story, therefore deserve to be restored with interventions that bring along a hint of modernity and show the trace of the design activity. The “Architecture for Heritage” course has been created on these premises. Its aim is to train designers who will be able to understand and enhance the memory of historical architectures and take inspiration from them to carry out new interventions that both meet the new needs and are enriched by the link to the past. In a close dialogue between the ancient and the modern, between existing architectures and new interventions, it is possible to comprehend what has been and what is now, redesigning – through architecture – a historical line bound to be continued by future generations. The students will learn about the most advanced survey strategies and redesign of historical architectures; therefore, they will be able to protect the ancient wonders without giving up on a contemporary approach to the project. They will acquire skills and experience in a field of design that is always present and offers continuous and valuable job opportunities. The students will analyze the technical and compositional strategies to adopt in contexts that host outstanding existing architectures through the intervention on archaeological and industrial sites and focusing mainly on the accommodation and cultural use of historical buildings. The course will be made up of 86 hours of lessons, a 32-hour workshop, and multiple lectures by well-renowned professional architects. At the end of the course, YACademy Placement office will guarantee each student a proposal for an internship / collaboration within the partner studios.

WORKSHOP 

DESIGN OF A VISITOR CENTER AMONG THE RUINS OF THE PRIORY OF ATHASSEL

Led by Valerie Mulvin of Mccullough Mulvin Architects

The project, conducted under the tutorship of McCullough Mulvin Architects, will concern the design of a visitor center in the ruins of Athassel Priory, a Norman monastic complex listed among the most iconic ruins in southern Ireland. Immersed in an idyllic countryside and crystallized in a state of ruin for more than 700 years, the priory is certainly the ideal context to measure the relationship between antiquity and contemporary architecture. The uncertain boundary walls, the open aisles, the open Gothic pointed arches, and the abandoned cloisters represent a rare and charming opportunity to experiment with contemporary languages and architectures capable of unique expressiveness both on a technical and a compositional level. A museum space, a cafeteria, a bookshop, a conference space, or even accommodations scattered through the countryside and ruins will be the suggestive elements of a program capable of generating new experiences and perceptions of historic architecture while adhering to a formula that is consistent with the Irish spirit: reserved and deeply deferential towards its ruins.

BUILD YOUR PROJECT

Over the past years, numerous projects of YACademy’s students have been realized. For this reason, starting from 2022, systematically, the students will have the possibility to take part in a further educational step: the production of what they have designed during the workshop phase. Construction is an important step of architecture; therefore, YACademy offers its students the opportunity to take part in the production process of their ideas.
