Archit ects require solid ground on which to base their practice\, \;yet oceans have always been a key element sha ping the history of architecture and the built environment. This conferenc e sets out \; \;to shi ft the focus of architectural history from the land to the sea. \;The Built Ocean invites reflection on a singular idea: What if the \;history of architecture were also told from the perspective of th e sea?

The Faculty of Architecture of the University o f Porto will host a European Architectural History Network Thematic Confer ence. The three-day event will address the planet&rsquo\;s bodies of salt water as areas of increasing urbanization (through the building of structu res such as underwater cables\, oil rigs\, offshore wind farms\, etc.)\, a s connectors between cultures (navigation routes for people and resources\ , transported in the form of knowledge\, labour\, and materials)\, or as a n ecosystem functioning\, in connection with the land\, as an environment offering essential life support (defining climatic patterns and providing resources\, from food to raw materials\, and services\, from carbon seques tration to large-scale habitats).

The conference bring s together scholars representing a wide range of interdisciplinary knowled ge and sets out to cover a broad chronological scope\, from archaeological sources to more recent accounts of ecological decline and potential futur es. Where is the architecture of the sea? To what extent does the built en vironment impact saltwater landscapes? What reciprocal impacts do seascape s have on the built environment?

Over forty speakers f rom around the globe will deliver in person presentations\, scholars from Harvard to Sydney\, from Sã\;o Paulo to Oslo\, from Malaysia to Cost a Rica\, from Porto to Toronto\, from Lisbon to Reykjavik. The geographers Phil Steinberg and Kimberley Peters\, whose work has brought new light in to ocean ontologies\, will be delivering the keynote lecture &ldquo\;Ten M yths About the Ocean&rdquo\;\, opening the conference with a unique sessio n to all audiences at Cinema Passos Manuel. \;

The scientific committee is composed by André\; Tavares (University of Porto)\, Christy Anderson (University of Toronto)\, Paul Bouet (ENSA Paris -Est)\, Carson Chan (Museum of Modern Art\, New York)\, Nancy Couling (Ber gen School of Architecture\, ETH Zurich)\, Mari Lending (The Oslo School o f Architecture and Design)\, Helen Rozwadowski (University of Connecticut) and Panayotis Tournikiotis (National Technical University of Athens).&nbs p\;

Co-organized by the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Porto with the European Architectural History Network\, as part of the Fishing Architecture research project\, funded by the European Research Council (ERC) through a Consolidator Grant under the European Un ion&rsquo\;s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme (grant agree ment no. 101044244).
