Crafting Circularity – Rethinking Sustainable Design and Construction in Architecture Education is a European educational project of five European schools and 40 students. The project is supported by the Erasmus+ program. Based on the limitations the world is facing, this collaborative project explores a bold paradigm shift: designing architecture with availabilities of resources. As this is a new approach and role of architecture, it establishes, therefore, new methods, tools and processes in architecture education.

Together we want to connect existing knowledge and strategies of circular construction to the largely unaltered design practice and, additionally, extending the studio to a design & build practice where the design will be established as a simultaneously reflected material use. Through full-scale design and build workshops at the different universities, online seminars on circular design with mixed teams, we confront the students with the impact of circular construction and develop new hybrid learning and teaching methods.
