The Holcim Foundation Fellowship aims to create unique moments for Masters students and practices in all regions of the world to learn together from recently built projects and to challenge existing modes of practice.
This in-person intensive two-week course seeks to foster a curiosity and solutions-driven mindset through a series of actions - open dialogue, consultation, exploration, and reflection - and to create a dynamic feedback loop that leads to transferable and scalable outcomes. Students worked with David Benjamin, a distinguished professor based in New York City, along with other experts, to develop their conceptual positions and design skills related to decarbonizing the built environment. Fellows visited case study projects in New York City, met practicing professionals, participated in presentations, and learned about the innovative work of the partner firms – Arup, Henning Larsen, and SOM. They produced final projects documented in this digital publication, serving as a reference for future students and professionals.
