Sun Shines on Architecture
21.03-21.06.2025

In spring 2025, Archizoom is inviting you to immerse yourself into the world of solar architecture.

Capturing, filtering, reflecting or protecting: the interactions of the sun with architecture and with our territories are many and varied. The sun is at once a source of precious energy, of unwanted heat, and of light. In the face of global warming, these technical and poetic challenges are getting a real update — illustrated in the exhibition by work from EPFL laboratories and the resurgence of historical examples.

This exhibition is part of the Solar Biennale 2: Soleil-s
