Trilogis – The project of two passive houses made of wood and straw in the Fontainebleau forest, will be presented by Mischa Witzmann as part of Internationnal Wood Construction Forum.

This exhibition will occupy the entire gallery of the Grand Palais to showcase the diversity of architectural approaches. We’re delighted to be able to take part, and look forward to seeing you in our own alcove overlooking the Pan’Auditorium.
The vernissage will take place on Wednesday February 26 at 6.30pm.

Initiated over two decades ago by the technical universities of several countries, this forum is a showcase and laboratory for wood and bio-sourced construction.
We are delighted to be able to contribute to this with our Pan’Auditorium project, which will be dedicated to themes such as vocational training, forest preservation, climate objectives, Mayotte after the cyclone and many others, and will welcome 260 delegates.
At the conference, we will present the modular concept and the participatory construction process.

On Thursday February 20, Milena Karanesheva and Mischa Witzmann will give a talk at the Galerie d’Architecture at 7pm.

As part of our exhibition at the Galerie d’Architecture, we invite you to attend a round-table discussion with Eric Lenté, founder of Zoe & Zenbees and resident of a Karawitz passive wood house, Clément Castel, energy engineer and manager of BET Energelio, Milena Karanesheva and Mischa Witzmann, Karawitz architects, moderated by Margotte Lamouroux, doctoral student, specialist journalist and teacher.

Every Saturday, on the occasion of our exhibition at the Galerie d’Architecture, we, Milena Karanesheva and Mischa Witzmann, will be giving guided tours at 7pm, on Saturdays February 8, 15 and 22.

With Positionnements, the Karawitz agency, Milena Karanesheva and Mischa Witzmann, explores an architecture where the perception of space dialogues with human interiority, just as each person’s identity is shaped by the space that surrounds them. This principle underpins her approach, integrating climate – understood in its original Greek definition (κλίμα/klima, inclination of the earth to the sun) – as a structuring force that influences orientation, light and living conditions.

The school extension designed by Karawitz with support from SES-BONN EXPERT SERVICES is taking shape. The project is based on a bioclimatic concept with natural ventilation and bio-sourced materials.
