DESCRIPTION:Achille Bourdon - Syvil Architecture\n \nON CITIES AND PRODUC
 TION\nWhile the development of productive infrastructures had for a long t
 ime followed an extensive model\, relegating auxiliary facilities to the o
 utskirts\, a new paradigm is emerging: the productive city. In the context
  of procurement liberalization\, Syvil explores how architects can regain 
 agency by shifting their focus to preliminary research\, programming\, and
  managing demonstration projects as alternatives to traditional planning. 
 Syvil counters logistical decentralization by advocating for the relocatio
 n of logistics infrastructures to urban centers. By examining the history
  of productive infrastructures in the Paris region\, Achille Bourdon uncov
 ers the underlying mechanisms of the productive metropolis\, as illustrate
 d by his studio’s work.\n\nOrganized in the framework of the MAS in Urb
 an and Territorial Design\, the Urban and Environmental Theory Sessions se
 e guests address the theme of the semester: “Counter-projects / Counter-
 spaces”. The sessions\, offering a combination of theoretical positions 
 and professional design experience\, address the challenges of spatial\,
  social\, and energy transition through various contributions: from human
  geography\, urban studies\, spatial design\, environmental studies\, and 
 system thinking.\n\n
