DESCRIPTION:Elli Mosayebi\, EMI Architekt*innen\nChliriet Secondary School
  Building\nWhat makes for a good learning environment for young people? Th
 e presentation on the Chliriet Secondary School explores how spatial layou
 t\, landscape\, architectural design\, and color schemes can shape everyda
 y school life. The long\, narrow wooden building frames a spacious schooly
 ard featuring the existing multipurpose hall. The classrooms face the open
  landscape\, while the hallways and group rooms offer views of the schooly
 ard. The colorful interior creates a vibrant and distinctive learning envi
 ronment.\n\nElli Mosayebi\, EMI Architekt*innen\nElli Mosayebi’s career 
 is defined by the close relationship between practice\, research\, and tea
 ching. Since 2004\, she has co-directed the Zurich-based office EMI Archit
 ekt*innen with Ron Edelaar and Christian Inderbitzin. In 2018\, she was ap
 pointed Professor of Architecture and Design at ETH Zurich. Her research f
 ocuses on load-bearing natural stone construction and the transformation o
 f housing and residential architecture. These themes also shape her archit
 ectural practice\, which links design research to changing social\, cultur
 al\, and material conditions in contemporary architecture and building.\n\
 nPart of School Lecture Series\, Autumn 2026\, Learning Vol.1\nWe are tol
 d that learning is no longer confined to the school or the university\, bu
 t it has become a continuous process that involves the totality of life. Y
 et in accepting this reality\, we take for granted several questions that 
 loom large within the contemporary idea of learning. In a time when techno
 logy and information are ubiquitous\, does it still make sense that for le
 arning to happen or be confined within a place? Is learning still an asymm
 etrical relationship where there are teachers and a student? And above all
 \, is learning accessible\, or has it become too expensive a commodity? In
  this lecture series\, we’ll attempt to answer these questions by invest
 igating learning on different levels such as technology\, construction sys
 tems\, educational spaces\, and above all\, making architecture. Indeed\, 
 the question that is more than anything else crucial to us is whether arch
 itecture is still a place of learning and not only of empowering those who
  have capital to build it. We will look at schools\, drawings\, robots\, a
 nd measuring devices. We will ponder whether these things are only ‘tool
 s’ to achieve a result or can still be vital places for learning. \n\nR
