Hof am Import Export
The courtyard in front of the restaurant and event venue "Import Export" as well as the spaces between the buildings of MUCCA and IMAL are used by local initiatives and external actors with actions and events. Workshops and events are held in the rooms, garden installations divide the space, and actions and materials make the inner life of the buildings visible.

Spatial planning reference:
In the context of the master plan for the creative quarter of Teleinternetcafé, the socio-cultural and artistic initiatives take an important role in the transformation of the neighborhood. "This special profile will be pursued in the urban planning and forms the starting point for a site-specific strategy" states Teleinternetcafé's homepage. The open spaces around the "Import Export" are an important interface between visitors and residents.
