UPCYCLING AND ARCHITECTURE IN EUROPE. TOWARDS A NEW BUILDING CULTURE
International Symposium
The International Symposium "Upcycling and Architecture in Europe. Towards a New Building Culture" will be held on
September 20-21, 2024, at Politecnico di Milano.
The event is organised in the frame of the Research Project of National Relevance (PRIN) "Upcycling Architecture in Italy.
Forging and Promoting a Renewed Building Culture", funded by European Union – Next Generation EU and involving four
universities: Politecnico di Torino, Sapienza Università di Roma, Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata and Politecnico di Milano.
The symposium is a first-time Italian gathering of a significant selection of leading European experts in upcycling, reuse and
circularity in the field of architecture. The event’s main goal is to map the state-of-the-art of ongoing practice and research
continent-wide, focusing on a few particularly relevant construction sites and scientific advancements.
