Final Review: Master Project "From Incidence to Permanence"

Final Review of the Master Project From Incidence to Permanence Sustainable Transformations at Hans-Preißinger-Straße 6-8, Munich (Bavaria) at the Chair of Landscape Architecture and Public Space.  

About the project: 
In October 2021, a temporary hub for cultural institutions was established in Munich-Sendling. This area, located at Hans-Preißinger-Straße 6–8, includes the Gasteig HP8 (home to the Isarphilharmonie) and a mix of cultural spaces, small businesses, and facilities of Stadtwerke München (SWM). To plan its future development, the site has been divided into three sections, which will be developed step by step from south to north. The southern and central parts will mainly be used for company housing, while the northern part will remain a cultural center. There are also plans to improve Hans-Preißinger-Straße by making it more pedestrian-friendly and reducing traffic. A key challenge is to balance gradual development with urgent environmental and climate needs. The project aims to include eco-friendly solutions that work both during and after construction. It will decide which elements should be permanent and which should stay flexible to adapt to future changes. The main goal is to combine ecological and social benefits. Efforts like reducing paved areas, increasing greenery, and creating shared public spaces will make the area more livable and sustainable. Temporary projects and community involvement will help keep the site lively and accessible throughout its transformation. In this project, students work in groups, first conducting a scientific analysis to establish the foundation for their design. Alongside a traditional open space analysis, the focus is placed on a comprehensive stakeholder analysis. This step serves as the basis for the following design phase, which, in the integration stage, also addresses specific strategies for enhancing biodiversity.
