Floating Paris approaches pleasure as an active driver of architectural action, directly engaging the city and the present moment. The workshop considers urban space not as a backdrop, but as a living milieu to be activated through temporary, lightweight, and performative interventions. Through the construction of ephemeral inflatable forms, students explore how architecture can structure and intensify the temporality of pleasure within the urban fabric.<\/p>\n
The workshop develops an experimental and construction-based approach where learning emerges through action, testing, and in-situ experience. Working with lightweight, translucent, and temporary inflatable structures, students design spatial situations that question the relationship between pleasure, ephemerality, and everyday urban life.<\/p>\n
Structured in successive phases\u2014from model to form, from form to event, and from event to program\u2014the workshop emphasizes full-scale (1:1) engagement, contextual adaptation, and the capacity to act here and now. Interventions culminate in a video, GIF, or photographic series documenting the spatial and performative effects.<\/p>\n
