University Partners
Aedes partners with leading universities worldwide to explore new ways of teaching, studying and practicing architecture. Aedes Design Studios provide a space for experimentation, collaboration and fresh approaches – right in the heart of Berlin. The studios spaces feature 24-hour access, plotting and printing, projectors, a self-catering kitchen, faculty accommodation and a garden to relax in on warm days.
Industry Partners
Aedes is a exceptional seismograph of the future. Aedes Industry Partners are actively involved in identifying emerging needs, uncovering new potentials and exploring some of the most pressing issues of our time across disciplines. A partnership with Aedes offers a glimpse into the future — together with those who design and build it.
Institutional Partners
The not-for-profit Aedes plays a vital role in the discourse on space-making within evolving political, economic and cultural contexts. Leveraging our location in the German capital, we collaborate with international ministries, embassies, foundations, municipalities, research institutes and civil society organisations to develop our programme.
”Aedes is a platform for contemporary and urbanistic visions - a beacon of the idea that the design of public space has a direct impact on the organisation of a society and shapes it. Aedes has taken this idea out into the world via a broad network and has thus become part of a foreign cultural policy. Ministries, administrations, embassies, industry and civil society institutions are interested in the transdisciplinary approach of the Aedes Metropolitan Laboratory, which directs and sharpens the focus on the Other. We need this view more than ever today in times of great upheaval, dwindling certainties and increasing national compartmentalisation. Aedes thus makes a contribution to international understanding.
