The Chair in Circular Architecture at the Universitat Jaume I, supported by the Second Vice-presidency and the Regional Ministry of Housing and Bioclimatic Architecture, held the 1st Circular Architecture Marathon on 11 and 12 November with the slogan "Dismantle and rebuild a more sustainable and circular éBRICKhouse".

The aim of this activity was to promote reflection and dissemination of the application of the concepts of sustainability and circularity in the field of architecture among the participants. Throughout the two days, secondary school, undergraduate and doctoral students worked in teams with architecture and engineering professionals on different challenges related to these concepts, such as rehabilitation, industrialisation and deconstruction.

On Friday, workshops were held to encourage teamwork, creativity and communication. Afterwards, several technical talks were also given on the principles of circular architecture and the building under study, the éBRICKhouse, a prototype of sustainable housing created in 2014 by the UJI and the Via University College of Denmark for the Solar Decathlon Europe competition. Saturday's session began with some training pills to continue with the work of the teams in the development of their proposals, which were presented at the end of the day.

The first prize went to the proposal entitled "Intergenerational neighbourhood", which proposes the redefinition of the éBRICKhouse to convert it into an industrialised system adaptable to the changing needs of housing over time, as well as to respond to the lack of housing for young people and the availability of suitable housing for the elderly.

The two second prizes went to "Fun + Nel + DEc", a proposal for the deconstruction of housing with the reuse of all its materials for uses with high added value, and to the "èBRICKhouse 2.0" proposal in which housing is rehabilitated to meet all the challenges of climate change and the energy and health crisis.
