In partnership with the R�seau des maisons de l'architecture and the Maison de l'Architecture du Centre.

ArchiLab 2013 introduces the latest progress in terms of research in digital architecture and its interaction with the sciences, permitted by the simulation of growth phenomena in the living world. The problematics of ArchiLab 2013, involving digital architecture and the sciences, will be broached at an international symposium which will bring together ten exhibited architects. They will present their latest research, dealing with changes occurring in the very concept of nature and ecology.

Under the scientific supervision of Fr�d�ric Migayrou.
This interdisciplinary conference will bring together historians of art and architecture and scientists (biologists, specialists in simulation systems of the living world). They will question the sources of the Renaissance and Mannerism, linking them to the present-day arena of digital technologies.
