Regenerative Architecture for the Barracks of Poya

Miodonski, Isabelle Christina
2023

Regenerative Architecture is a conscious practice that seeks to create projects that benefit all impacted spheres, whether environmental, social or technical. The main aim is to have a qualitative and positive impact on the environment while bringing all users of the site towards mutually beneficial relationships (human and non-human). The design approach is interdisciplinary and focuses on biodiversity, social needs, and energetic solutions, with the aim of contributing to the reversal of environmental damages by exposing better ways of living and means of developing architecture. The project wants to bring environmental, social, and energetic regeneration to the site of the barracks of la Poya in Fribourg (Switzerland). Previously military and currently hosting refugees, the 40’000 m2 site shows great potential for quick adaptability and public uses. With the development of nearby areas and easy access to the parcel, the place could become a new center of activity and biodiversity. The site is a unique opportunity to rethink how we develop and modify urban areas, how we live and interact with our natural environment, the place we dedicate to it, and the larger-scale benefits such a regenerative approach could bring. The reuse and improvement of existing structures, the creation of diversified spaces, and the implementation of precise functions for all types of users, all interventions pursue the reconnection of people with their environment, its diversity and beauty.
