PHASE 1: RESEARCH AND EXPLORATION In the Research and Exploration phase, good practices how to initiatiate and develop creative projects are examined towards upscaling perspectives. In a second step, the background of existing initiatives in Wendland is targeted, asking for the range of local innovation and the influence of metropolitan linkages. The third step foresees a mapping of relevant layers to understand territorial dynamics and potentials. With the exploratory survey in the framework of the additonal course Excursion Wendland, topics and places for the urban-territorial design projects are selected and examined. Interviews, photography, descriptions, and drawing are combined for the field survey. PHASE 2: INTERVENTIONS AND UPSCALING This design and development phase starts from ideas for interventions, that are detailed in spatial and programmatic concept, the selection of the focus area, and discussed in terms of relevance and innovation. Then, Upscaling of the core interventions is targeted in regard to process and networks, elaborated with maps and diagrams. PHASE 3: SCENARIOS AND VISION The second design and development phase starts from territorial scenarios that display possible pathways of spatial changes, derived from topics and places in phase 1 and extended to the whole area and across societal-economic sectors. With the following step of Visioning, the role of projects and images of spatial change for planning is discussed. With plans, sections, axonometries, and perspectives, the interventions are redrawn and reevaluated.
