Hochschule Anhalt, Dessau | Berlin Alexanderplatz
Studierende aus der Hochschule Darmstadt befassen sich mit der architektonischen Entwicklung eines Baufelds am Alexanderplatz in Berlin, unter Berücksichtigung des aktuellen Masterplans und der Nachbarschaft zur Volksbühne. In einer Workshop-Woche in Berlin sollen Konzeptansätze erarbeitet werden, die im weiteren Verlauf des Semesters in Dessau vertieft werden. Partners: Hochschule Darmstadt
Institute of Architecture Technology, TU Graz | BUSting Berlin – hybrid infrastructures
Berlin is a dynamic, vital metropolis that counts as one of the favourite destinations in Europe. The studio adresses the topic of mobility arising from that precondition and the question of how Berlin is actually being accessed. Within this frame, the students focus especially on the current phenomenon of increasing bus travel. Partners: Institute of Architecture Technology, TU Graz
Pratt Institute | TEMPORARY URBAN PROTOTYPES
The studio investigates 21st century scales of place making. Scales of intervention today differ radically from the institution-driven urban design of the past and demand an adaptive architecture to respond to the fluid and amorphous condition of public space that constantly offers temporary public programmes that shift in scale, nature and duration.
