INTERNATIONAL URBAN DESIGN STUDIO | WINTER 2018/19

Wether you’ve just arrived in Munich or have been living here for years - touring the city to discover its diversity of settings is probably a typical hobby of anyone interested in architecture and urban design. Large patches of Munich’s city fabric are quite homogenous city-block structures, public parks, historic center, commercial areas, but sometimes you hit spots where typology and functional program seem to clash. The friction of these spots is especially challenging for future design proposals.

The International Studio in this winter term will focus on a plot in Munich Sendling, where large market halls of the wholesales market with its surrounding parkinglots stand side by side with dense housingblocks of a lively and active neighborhood. We will be searching for possible visions and design answers for lots laying inbetween these two patches of seemingly contradictory program.

This design studio will combine the work of small design teams with a collective workshop phase. Course and crits in English language.
