May-July 2018

Led by Randy Cohen, Hors les murs» was a summer study trip of the Modernism and contemporary architecture. It tooks place in different cities of Brazil: Sao Paulo, Brasilia, Belo Horizonte, Ouro Preto and Rio de Janeiro.

Before going one month to Brazil, there was a strong study of the history, the architecture and the brazilian architects who draw those cities: Oscar Niemayer, Robert Burle Marx, Paulo Mendes da Rocha, Eduardo Afonso Reidy, Lina Bo bardi, Lucio Costa, Vilanova Artigas, Joao Filguieras Lima...

On field, there was three workshops: a student housing next to the Sao Paulo University of Architecture, an ephemeral architecture in

Brasilia to discuss the Pillot Plan developped by Oscar Niemeyer and Lucio Costa in 1956, and a cultural place in Rio de Janeiro. Also, every student had to study an iconic building. There was a ground, structural and a skin study about each building. Above, there is isometric drawing of the «Parque Eduardo Guinle Bulding, Nova Costra» in Rio de Janeiro drawn by Lucio Costa in 1950. The trip keeps track thanks to a personal notebook with sketches and texts from every day.

«Hors les murs» was concluded with an exposition in the Planning Faculty of the Université de Montréal in September 2018 of every study, drawing and workshops.
