On Thursday 24 September 2020 at 05:00 pm the Engineering Sciences: Architecture of the KU Leuven goes digital with the first edition of "LAunch!”, (Leuven Architecture) experiences from a year of architectural engineering in Leuven! In collaboration student organisation Existenz presents BARak Bedacht! on Wednesday 23 September 2020.
Following in the footsteps of other architecture schools, their students, researchers, design supervisors, professors and support staff will join forces to make student and research work visible to each other, to our networks and to anyone interested.
What to expect when you join? A unique event with both pre-recorded videos and a live show!
A Launch should be a retrospective, but also a start to what is to come. That's why Existenz is organising a design competition for all students of architectural engineering on Wednesday 23 September, as a preview of what the upcoming year has in store.
Coming October, Existenz opens its own weekly Bar next to the Arenberg Castle. It is a proper meeting space for all students, PhD's and professors. In this way, they hope to bring everyone closer together and breathe life back into the campus.
They already have a bar, but they want more: a complete experience. Who better to take care of the rest of the decoration than one of the young and creative minds of the department?
They challenge you to get your brains out of their summer sleep and sign up for the first design assignment of the year, a warm-up for the design subjects that follow later on. Goal: design your bubble and create a place to come together safely but cozily! The assignment will be suitable for all students: from new first year students to students of the master. A preview of the bar will be open during the competition for the necessary atmosphere.
