We would like to wish Hannah Pether all the best on her nomination for the RIBA Sliver Medal 2017. Hannah was part of the Arrival City Studio led by John at Sheffield School of Architecture and built on URBEDs involvement with the ASRM 2015.

Set within Offenbach, a prototype ‘Arrival City’ in Germany comprising 156 nationalities, the proposal seeks to address the extremely high migrant population and population turnover inherent in such transient areas, limiting the right of many to a conventional vote. It strives to give each individual a voice and story within the city through a deconstructed parliamentary model, creating a place of integration, debate and refuge: a ‘city within a city’.
