Experimental Building Programs in Germany: Shaping Culture through Policy
Faculty Research Project
Community Planning Research
Year Of Project:
2010
Project Summary:
This work examines Germany's federally funded experimental building programs as cultural determiners and transformers. An analysis of studies and reports to sponsors of the past twenty years brings to light that from the urban environment to the architectural object, both tangible spatial objects and the process of their creation have become part of a culture of building that can successfully be guided through direct intervention. The study concludes with suggesting further policy areas where this process can be implemented.
