We’re happy to introduce the first project — selected through our open call 4 Transformations for Berlin for the theme ACTIVATE — which our team is now developing as part of our open studio and exhibition CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF = Building the Existing City: Innsbrucker Platz!
Innsbrucker Platz currently functions primarily as a transport interchange, surrounded by barriers to free movement. With a new residential neighborhood emerging nearby, it creates an opportunity for its redevelopment by redefining the site’s role within the urban fabric.
During the exhibition, our team will explore how this site can evolve into an open public space for the surrounding neighborhood and local communities. Submitted by the district administration of Tempelhof-Schöneberg, the brief calls for better pedestrian connections between the square, nearby green spaces, and areas beneath the railway viaduct — creating opportunities for meeting, play, and everyday recreation.
Building on an existing feasibility study, the proposals will also consider planting, shading, and rainwater management.
The project draws on our experience of transforming Mendel Square in Brno, presented in the exhibition as an example of how a transport-dominated space can
support an active public life.
Project details are now on display at @aedesberlin.
Everyone is welcome to visit throughout the six-week exhibition, talk to our team, participate, and follow the design process as it unfolds.
The final proposal will be presented at the exhibition closing on 3 December.
