Project Documentation: "Landsberg am Lech - Ready for 2055?"
Students from the Master's programs in Urbanism and Architecture worked for several months to look at the long-term development of the town of Landsberg. The aim was to design a long-term spatial strategy. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the region and a methodology for working with future trends, the next 30 years were examined. Four student teams each present a vision of the future for “Landsberg 2055” and use an overall strategy and specific spatial proposals to show possible development paths for the region and local stakeholders.
The four student teams focus on different topics and show different development paths for the year 2055. How can resilient land use, inclusive mobility and social cohesion be strengthened and interlinked to achieve sustainable growth? How can the prospects of young residents be improved and education and innovation become key catalysts for positive development? How can Landsberg become a municipality that leads by example through the consistent implementation of sustainable mobility, a liveable city center and a self-sufficient energy supply? And how can Landsberg carry today's qualities into the future in order to be “just as great, only better” in 2055?

New Publication: Interim status of the Interim City

The majority of people in Europe live outside the classic cities. "Zwischenstadt/Cities without Cities" is what Thomas Sieverts calls it in his world-famous book from 1997. 25 years later, we are looking again at these urbanised cultural landscapes, these sprawling messes. We consciously turn our gaze away from the metropolitan urban centres to places on the periphery where car dealerships, gravel pits, riding stables, DIY stores, caravan parks, motorway slip roads and single-family housing estates border directly on agricultural land, where donkeys graze against noise barriers and we don't know exactly where the city begins and the landscape ends.
The exhibition project Zwischenstand der Zwischenstadt, has turned its gaze to the urbanised, hybrid and fragmented landscapes between city and town, countryside and transport hubs, and asked about the economic, social, ecological, cultural and aesthetic conditions of these spaces. You can read the publication on the project here.
