Elevation NW 1:200
Site plan 1:1000
The Dresden centre for culture and integration perceives itself as a place of ongoing becoming and change due to the unpredictably evolving and altering situation of migration, asylum and refugees. Thus the project offers a very reduced primary construction as basis consisting of a column-grid, floor plates and ceilings, necessary staircases as well as stairs located along the sides of the building, everything covered by a light shell of transparent corrugated panels. At the beginning each floor-level provides only one room as a basis for the intended development of the activities of the centre. This one room on each level houses all the uses designated for this area of the building in a minimal extent like an incubator. The users are invited and needed to develop the spaces and activities of the centre collectively according to their actual and current needs and whishes. To allow such a gradual and adjustable inner construction the spaces are inserted like boxes into the primary construction described above. The only necessary borders and structure of the spaces are formed by the access-paths on each level following the outer building shell and its built-in stairs. Furthermore the inner system of the building-layout allows one room on each floor level to overstep these borders and build a room touching directly the outer building-shell.

Wilhelm Leuschner Platz Urban Development Leipzig TU Darmstadt University Prof. Anna Jessen jessenvollenweider architektur Basel CH
The square Wilhem-Leuschner-Platz at the immediate edge of the city centre of the eastern-german city of Leipzig has been a fallow urban space that can hardly be recognized as a square so far. It‘s supposed to be developed a masterplan for its reactivation as an inner-city square and building-site that takes into consideration its special position at the busy city-ring road as well as its function as a link between the city centre and its vivid urban surroundings. For this purpose it is suggested a grid of highrises surrounding the square that establishes four highpoints in the northern part of the perimeter composing a rhythm of different building-hights and -arrangements. The so called ‘Bowling-Treff’ as a very unusual late-socialist heritage is preserved and integrated into the newly established urban ensemble. The southern and western parts of the perimeter form an urban repair that mediates between the highrises and the late 19th century block-structures of the urban surroundings. Gastronomy and retail on the street-levels of the highrises are combined with housing in the upper storeys. Furthermore there is intended to be a hotel in one of the highrises and an extension of the nearby town hall in one of the block-structures. Handling the planning in such a radical way redounds to the square’s advantage to be kept as a generous open space close to the city centre; a fact that is thoroughly wanted by the public administration. Simultaneously it can accommodate a considerable amount of new inhabitants and facilities as well as it develops an interplay with other highpoints in it’s proximities.

Getting a building permit

As the city of Frankfurt is growing and the pressure on the housing-market is very high, the project ‘Gardens of Oberrad’ aims to establish a settlement-process that develops this very area in a socially acceptable process involving the existing inhabitants as well as making new housing possible. The area, even though close to the city center, has a very rural character and is mainly filled with small allotments people from the city grow vegetables on. Normally it is not allowed to live on these plots. To achieve a settlement process that matches the needs and whishes of both existing and new inhabitants it is suggested to establish a system of building law specifications. On very small lots it will be allowed to build without any further restrictions. Does a lot exceed 250 sqm though it needs to be split into lots not exceeding 500 sqm in order to obtain a building permit; Like that it shall be made sure that new inhabitants are moving in as well. Lots can be covered with buildings up to 50 percent and up to a height of two storeys. To provide a compensation for very small lots, that might be a most welcome product of splitting bigger lots, it is permitted to build up to three storeys on lots not exceeding 250 sqm. In any case the leaseholder of each lot is free to decide whether to take part in this process or not. Thus the suggested settlement structure is to be seen as a gradually process of getting more and more dense. The proposed housing designs are adapted to different lot-sizes and provide, despite the potential density, different qualities of exterior space with varying grades of privacy. The inner organization supplies multiple possibilities of adaption and extension such as space for commercial activity, that has a strong tradition in this specific area, integration of a separate flat or even division of the house into two independent parts. Taking steps in this way intends to letting sprout an urban development that leads to a new vivid, dense and socially minded quarter of Frankfurt.

Located at the edge of where the high rise settlement of Berlin-Gropiusstadt ends and comes upon a low density single family housing settlement, the perimeter still holds the gymnasium ERSTELLT of a school that was already reTODESK-SCHULUNGSPRODUKT located in 1989. Surrounded by several other schools, a sports arena and a swimming bath. In the medium term the hall will be available for conversion. On an urban scale new paths through the area will be provided to establish a better connection to high density Gropiusstadt, that houses a large number of potential users for the center. Thereby the center literally becomes the new pivot point of the urban situation and can perform its function yet on an urban scale. Different projects of social-, youth- and family-work already exist in the area and are well connected but suffer from their widespread spatial situation across the whole neighborhood. The schools as well lack room for sports and after-school childcare. This is what the centre for language and movement is to provide to the community, offering missing space and establishing a common place for the different social facilities and schools of the area. In the course of a social analysis it has been found a local association that is able to organize the activities of such a centre. The analysis of the structure of the existing hall has shown that the bearing structure consists of two separate systems: The part of the hall and the one of the locker rooms. It seems worthwhile, both from an ecological and economical point of view, to at least keep the part of the hall and integrate it into the new centre. A new to be built belt of rooms will be laid around the gym and will house the rooms for movement exercises as well as educational and social activities. Due to this disposition it is possible that either schools, clubs and social services use the center the same time. The movement of the roof follows different heights of the different usages underneath and approximates itself to the existing hall that is much higher. It also takes into consideration that in a surrounding consisting of many high rises it will mostly be seen from above.

Documentary short film Rome TU Darmstadt University UniversitĂ La Sapienza Roma AR Hilde Diekamp
During the course of one day, from morning to night, the film summarizes a one-year-long stay in Rome. Therein the daily events and moods of the city are mirrored with those of a typical italian bar. Whilst the bar creates its own small urban context, it is literally a one-to-one
reflecion of the daily routine in the city; or vice versa, depending from which perspective it is seen. Thus the film introduces the audience to the reality of the bar, its staff and guests as well as to the protagonists of the city, always according to the equivalent time of the day.
Kammer musikfest Sylt
Festival for chamber music Island of Sylt Annual festival since 2012 Head of organization
K A M M ERMUSIKFEST S Y LT Since 2012 the Sylt chamber music festival takes place every year at the end of july. In the course of the years it has become a fixed part of the cultural agenda of the region, even though it differs to some extent from the usual cultural program of the island, both conceptually and graphically. Under the artistic direction of the cellist Claude Frochaux, the festival gathers renowned international musicians from the chamber music world on the island in the very north of Germany. The artists do not come to play only one concert - they spend the week together and become a creative unit, which can be heard during the festival week in many different combinations. The concerts take place in many varied venues all around the island, as the festival moves to another location for almost each concert during the week. Furthermore each year, the festival is based on a theme which inspires the repertoire and the entire design of the week. There is a thread connecting all the concerts, which are designed to create a musical journey of discovery for the audience.
