Final review of the Bachelor Project To do more with less - Infill at the edge, Berlin at the Chair of Urban Design and Housing. Following the final review, a conversation between Mark Pimlott, Bruno Krucker and Stephen Bates as well as an apéro will take place.
About the project:
Berlin is growing, pushing further and further to the periphery. Open spaces, commercial and production areas in outer districts such as Lichtenberg are increasingly being competed for by both businesses and creative industries. The fabric of these edge-places is characterised by gaps and discontinuities, different building types, blank walls and undefined space between things. These areas have an improvised architectural character, and they prompt the question as to what is an appropriate form and material language to adopt. This will be the context of our work this semester as we design buildings of mixed use in the semi-industrialised areas of Lichtenberg and work within the constraints and opportunities of urban mining - recovering and reusing the city’s waste material to make resilient buildings for the unknown future – to do more with less.
