Seismograph City


The exhibition Seismograph City is open from June to September this summer in Hamburg. Our project, Nordhavnen / Excentral Park - Edge Dynamics is exhibited together with other projects under the title Sustainable Strategies in Dialogue.
The Exhibition is a part of Hamburger Architektur Sommer, the programme can be downloaded here: RAUM IN DER ZEIT - Hamburg im Fluss

The universal city defines itself not only as the catalyst of cultural, social, economic and ecological processes, but also as the seismograph of global developments. Never before has there been such consensus between politicians and the public on the question of how we can innovatively and constructively improve our living environment. Given global challenges to develop sustainable strategies in architecture and urban design, the architectural profession assumes a significant role and responsibility. This exhibition and catalogue present a diverse spectrum of buildings in various stages of development and completion as well as visionary designs which address sustainable strategies in the context of current architectural and urban developments worldwide. Selected projects provide an exciting insight (not overview) into current planning in the city of Hamburg, as well as a fascinating and rather surprising collection of projects, designs and visions which excite our imaginations, give us strength, motivation and which hopefully inspire us to further examine themes of sustainability.
