Map of the ground, spanning the entire world, including an attempt of an explanation of its nature as well as its significance for the history, our now and the future

raumlabor travelled to Venice with it’s “Kitchenmonument” and introduced the “Generator”

In Innsbruck raumlabor gives a framework, but leaves space for participation and individualization. The „Biergarnitur für Tirol“, a communicative furniture is a guide for an opportunity for a dialogue.

To mark the 10th jubilee of the European Urban Public Space Awards the Architekturzentrum Wien is engaging with that often addressed and sometimes overplayed subject of Public Space.

THE GENERATOR is an experimental building laboratory for instant, participatory building practices in public space. Central issues of the research include: construction principles, new geometries for furniture and lightweight construction buildings, as well as new use possiblities and multiple programs for people to meet and interact in public.

In the KUB Arena, raumlaborberlin has undertaken an architectural intervention, which reflects our main concerns and marks the space of the Arena as an autonomous location.

INTERCITY BERLIN-PRAHA is a long term dialogue between young artists of various disciplines from Praha and Berlin. The fifth edition is dedicated to architecture. The exhibition is a snapshot of the latest works of eight young architecture studios from each city.

Stick on city is a responsive drawing, made to be permanently renewed. It is a 12mx2,5m training ground for utopians. Built and unbuilt iconic architectural designs assembled in an imaginary landscape. Visitors can take a tour, then add their own vision by drawing in and simply sticking it into the city!

raumlabor_berlin is engaged with temporarily transforming locations: a gallery into a laboratory, a public square into a location for scientific discourse or a cold corridor into a place with new social qualities. When spaces are meant not only to be neutral shells for content but also to convey particular functions and serve as catalysts, the way of dealing with these spaces, their design and programming have to be integral components of the overall conception.

”We Are Coming!” will present a selection of their many projects divided into the categories ”Relational Fetish Objects”, ”Transformed Urbanity” and ”Urban Narratives”. They also speculate about the hidden futures of the fjord city in an interactive cooking performance and present the newest (and possibly most original) link between Oslo and Berlin; a submarine and a wall-to-wall pool of white water in the gallery.

For the “house of imagination” raumlabor berlin interlaces two architectural ideas of living in Torstrasse 166: A 1:1 modell of a Plattenbau flat type P2 which is living reality in Halle-Neustadt and many cities of the former GDR is built into a Gründerzeit flat. Both models date from a time of mass production of living space, the Gründerzeit as a market driven approach, the P2 flat as a government-controlled approach.
