Recycling-Hub, Community Based Design, Bauen mit Pilzen, Abriss-Verhinderung, ein neues Zuhause für die Pfadis und Forschen im Raum — Die NBL Masterthesis-Klasse aus dem Sommer 2022.

The open air exhibition and culture space ZU/FLUCHT is the outcome of 18 months of cooperation between Natural Building Lab, Stiftung Exilmuseum Berlin and a network of cooperation partners from the TU Berlin and beyond. ZU/FLUCHT is the first step towards to the new Exilmuseum, which will be built at Anhalter Bahnhof by Stiftung Exilmuseum in the coming years. For five months, the museum will be temporarily located in former tempohome containers that were until recently used to accommodate those seeking refuge in Berlin. Besides information and content from Stiftung Exilmuseum and NBL, the exhibition also showcases the results of the Habitat Unit research project “Architectures of Asylum” and contents from the “We Refugees Archive”.

Am Anhalter Bahnhof sollen 4 bis 6 Container, die bis vor Kurzem als Teil der Tempohome Anlage für Geflüchtete in Berlin genutzt wurden, in eine temporäre Installation umgebaut werden.

Just 1/3 of Germany’s timber harvest annually would provide enough raw material to cover all domestic new construction. Berlin is expanding at an unprecedented rate and there is an increasing awareness that building with timber is the only solution to the housing crisis that can also allow Germany to meet the targets of the Paris agreement.

Um die fossile Konsum- und Wegwerfgesellschaft zu überwinden, muss auch die Architektur sich angemessen bestehender Ressourcen bedienen und Gebäude in den gegebenen Kreislauf der Ressourcen einbetten.
