We designed this website using a rigorous eco-design approach.
If you also want to significantly reduce the energy required for your browsing, you can activate Eco Mode.
In this mode, photos and videos are replaced by gray blocks, which significantly reduces the weight of the pages and places much less strain on our servers.
In this way, you actively contribute to eco-design.

The Makerspace at ENSEA is a collection of spaces dedicated to the design of physical objects and to hands-on, iterative learning for students. It comprises:
