OPEN OFFICE
@ 1070, Kaiserstraße 51-53/17

Planning and Building is an integral task where architect and client have to compromise on a wide range of needs and requirements. Therefore it is important on the one hand that both parties know, understand and execute their roles and on the other to have good relations between them. This cognitive process should take its time and has to be discussed with appropriate resoluteness. But not only formal factors are important, but also informal – so we look forward to spend some time chatting with snacks & drinks and relaxing music.

BUILDING IN/WITH SAND
@ 1070, Kaiserstraße 51-53, courtyard

Our office is mainly engaged in various projects at the Gulf of Abu Dhabi. There the ground consists of sand up to astonishing depth. For that reason we offer the workshop “building in/with sand” for all age groups in the courtyard of Kaiserstraße 51-53 on Saturday, 29th of May from 2 to 6 pm … parents and their children are especially welcome!
A playful approach with the construction material “sand” is provided. Together we´d like to explore the potential of the material and experiment with different possibilities of consolidation of sand by merging with water, paste or cement – depending on participating age groups.
We are looking forward to meet you!
