05 vacanza.analoge
nero29
11.2023 we: charlotte thienel and june saul, were hosting: vacanza analog in wiesbaden nerostrasse 29.
analog is better! or more atmospheric, quieter, sometimes a little blurred, but with more room for nuances.
a slight touch of melancholy usually wafts through our photographs. and eventually we let out a slightly wistful sigh and wish we were back in the mediterranean heat of our last summer vacation.
‘the emphasis on looking beyond the intellect.
‘people are at the center of our work,
.each person sits in dialog with its environment‘
‘needs and desires dictate our lives‘ ‘everyday routines shape our lives‘
capturing a moment. convey an atmosphere. tell a story‘
04 living.and.working.locally
paper
bschlabertal, tirol, austria 07.2023
there is a trend emerging between the growing‚ desire‘ for rural living and the issue of depopulation in small communities. the bschlabertal region is one of the areas most affected by depopulation in austria. ‘a place where nothing happens, this tranquillity offers potential and problems at the same time.‘
To what extent do the needs of the urban and rural populations differ?
How do you create attractiveness for young and old?
Co-working spaces are something for New York, Berlin or Munich, but not for rural areas. Or is it? Does such an urban concept even work in the countryside?
Why is there still a strict separation between living and working?
What can a future model of the living environment in rural areas look like?
The design of our living environment opens up many possibilities. Developments with innovative ideas in the areas of living, working, culture… can advance the living environment in rural areas and, with the right strategies, open up the possibility of new forms of communal living. The aim is to design an attractive living and working environment that combines a communal character with a private retreat. Architecturally, the question arises as to how living and working can be harmonized in a communal usage concept to enrich the place and its people.
03 Architectur.and.art
talk
In november and december 2022, the baumschlager class hosted :
a talk at the akademie galerie in munich’s universität subway station. In the summer semester of 2023, the professorship for the master’s program „architecture and art“ was newly filled and the name of the class changed accordingly. this upheaval has raised many questions. the gallery was transformed into an open discussion space in order to take the questions out of the classroom, into the public sphere, to look for answers with designers working in the broad field of architecture. the gallery turned into a cozy room by hanging a giant curtain with a different shape for each event.

02 what`s.the.future.of.the.past?
paper
during my student days, I lived in munich in arabellarpark. it was one of the first urban districts to be built according to corbusier‘s „unité d‘habitation“ principle, it had the vision of multifunctional living in the 60s. chipperfild ones said: „you design in the present for the unknown future, thinking far ahead with looking far back“.
how do we define good architecture?
a building should still be making a decisive contribution to society after 20, 40 or 100 years. for a building to be durable, it must have a convincing architectural expression, flexible basic structures, durable materials and clever load-bearing systems, because we do not know all the requirements of tomorrow, today. understanding architecture as a book of change, an architectural signature that is constantly being reworked and rewritten. for me, a good house is a good member of society. architecture is good when it feels effortless. a harmonious building conveys a sense of naturalness, so that the question of whether it could be designed differently does not even arise. 03.2024

„Indoni Yamanzi is a term in Zulu, the most widespread language in South Africa. It means „berry of the waters“ and stands for a young woman with respect, dignity and pride. This is how we see girls and women and it stands for the values we want to empower. Access to menstrual products, and the right to manage menstruation without shame or stigma is essential for all menstruating individuals, especially girls and young women. Indoni Yamanzi provides girls and women with menstrual products while empowering them through knowledge and education – an important step towards equality for women in South Africa and the world.“ HANNA BADENHOP
