DESCRIPTION:Joud Beaudoin\, Lorraine Beaudoin\nJOUD BEAUDOIN\, LORRAINE BE
 AUDOIN\nMaison de quartier des Plaines du loup\n\nLocated in the Parc du l
 oup\, on the edge of a newly built neighborhood\, the community center is 
 designed according to the principle of “houses within a house”: the va
 rious programmatic units are distributed across four distinct volumes\, fr
 agmenting the building and giving it a human scale and porosity to its env
 ironment. Between them lies a fluid interstitial space that lends itself t
 o encounters and exchanges\, thanks to a double-height space that connects
  the two levels. This spatial constellation offers a wide variety of possi
 ble uses\, while the construction uses organic and geo-sourced materials\,
  allowing the new building to become part of its surroundings and creating
  interiors with unique atmospheres. \n\nLorraine Beaudoin has been running
  the Joud Beaudoin Architects office in Lausanne with Christophe Joud sinc
 e 2014. Study partners since the beginning of their architectural training
  at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture de Lyon (Ensal) and the
 n at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) for their maste
 r's degree and joint diploma in 2009\, they contributed between 2010 and 2
 020 to various research projects and theoretical writings on collective ho
 using at the Laboratory of Theory and History of Architecture (LTH2\, EPFL
 )\, under the direction of Bruno Marchand. Their projects and achievements
  are mainly the result of public competitions.\n\n\nThis lecture is part o
 f the School Lecture Series\n\nCOMMUNITY VOL.2\nSeven exemplary projects a
 nd case studies\n\nCommunity is an ambivalent concept. It involves both ga
 thering through shared customs and exclusion. Some claim that inclusive co
 mmunities do not exist. Recent history shows people more often unite throu
 gh exclusion than inclusion. However\, communities are not sealed. Philoso
 pher Roberto Esposito explains that community ‘is not a property or terr
 itory to defend but a void\, a debt\, and a gift to others’\, reminding 
 us of our otherness.\n\nThis lecture series explores the topic of communit
 y through architecture. How does architecture explore\, define\, or enable
  communities? Can architects collaborate directly with communities\, bypas
 sing institutional entities? How can design convey a collective experience
 ? Seven emerging and established architectural figures respond to these qu
 estions through their work\, which spans film\, exhibitions\, and communit
 arian buildings.\n\nSave the dates and join us on Tuesday evenings!\n
