DESCRIPTION:Cyril Veillon    \nSun Shines on Architecture\n21.03-21.06
 .2025\n\nThe relationship between architecture and the sun has profoundly 
 shaped the design and construction of buildings for millennia. Yet\, the i
 ntegration of solar energy into the built environment has remained rather 
 marginal to this day.\n\nAlthough the sun has always been there as a sourc
 e of energy and beauty\, it seems we have waited for the depletion of foss
 il resources to truly turn to it. The manifesto of the Solar Biennale decl
 ares: its time has finally come\, but it is not enough to simply plug the 
 sun into an outlet. A holistic approach to solar design must be embraced.\
 n\nThe current “solar movement” rethinks architecture and urban planni
 ng on a global scale\, placing the sun at the center of our concerns. The 
 exhibition explores how this energy source\, whether used passively or act
 ively\, becomes a true architectural element\, benefiting any renovation o
 r new construction project.\n\nGuided tour by Cyril Veillon\, curator of t
 he exhibition\n\nOrganised at ARCHIZOOM at the EPFL as part of the Solar B
 iennale 2\n \n
