ASRM LAB: Workshop

URBED took part in a 4 day workshop as part of the Architektur Sommer: Rhein-Main. 

The workshop ran over 4 days with participants visiting sites, discussing with local practices and planners from the different regions the constraints and issues facing each area, working together on ideas and culminated in a presentation of initial ideas. The ideas generated from the workshop will be exhibited at D.A.M - and at the opening, on May 20th 2014, we will present our ideas for the region and propose a smaller scale intervention to communicate these ideas.

ASRM Lab 2014: Region im Fluss represents Part I of the programme. Part II, ASRM Expo 2015: Region im Fluss, is scheduled for July-Sept 2015. This will comprise a series of temporary art/architecture interventions that will respond to the findings of the workshop, animating and disseminating our central theme: cities growing together.
