During the workshop, which is going to be realized from 1-7 April 2012, the participators will experience the historical, contemporary and geographical diversity of Athens through excursions and routes into the town. Teams are invited to attempt to discover the connection between built and unbuilt, the role of public space in relation to the existing buildings.

The aim of the workshop is the design teams to produce archetypes and structures through digital programs and 3d printers.
