Abstract

The exhibition “Robert Le Ricolais: Visions and Paradox” displayed at the Aarhus School of Architecture in October 1998 was used as a source of inspiration for a one-week student workshop on structures. The objective of the student workshop was to create a conceptual structural design inspired by the exhibited structural models of Le Ricolais and by his philosophical writings on structures. It was realised by the Aarhus faculty that the philosophical ideas of Le Ricolais are not very easy, neither to fully understand nor to transform into structural design for architectural students. In spite of that fact, it became obvious to the faculty that many of the students, inspired by the exhibition, managed to make interesting structural designs. In addition, the faculty was inspired by the exhibition (and the successful student workshop as well) to think of different concepts for the final curriculum of structural design at the Aarhus School of Architecture in the future.
