Building on our previous colloquia on water-related issues and coastal transitions, this third edition of the CEDTI Colloquium turns its attention to the ambiances that mediate the relationship between land, sea, and human experience through the built environment.
As climate crises intensify, coastlines erode, and communities face environmental instability, the relationship between people and their territories is increasingly marked by uncertainty and rapid change. In this context, ambiances become a relevant lens for observing, understanding, and supporting these transformations—what is at stake in adaptation and resilience, but also in cultural continuity and ways of inhabiting a place.
This colloquium invites participants to explore how sensory, spatial, and technological approaches can help us understand and support societies through these transformations. It aims to cultivate a shared vocabulary and interdisciplinary dialogue around the island ambiances, opening new possibilities for research, design, and community engagement across island regions.
