The FOR:UM was created as part of Zukunftsstadt Dresden 3.0 and under the auspices of Team Zirkuläres Bauen (bau&wesen e.V.). The aim was to design and construct a mobile, circular micro-architecture for joint activities and events in public spaces. After completion, it is now available to Dresden initiatives for collective use and has become our mobile operations center. The FOR:UM accommodates a variety of uses and creates temporary interaction spaces for neighborly encounters and exchange. The modular structure allows it to be adapted to different usage formats (e.g. exhibitions, cooking events, podium...). A good practice example for the successful closing of urban material cycles has been created, in which approaches from cooperative urban development are combined with alternative construction processes. At the same time, FOR:UM is a mobile material library that makes cycles visible in public spaces.

The FOR:[A]UM project was part of the "Kreativ.Raum.Börse", which took place in cooperation between the state capital of Dresden(@landeshauptstadt_dresden) and WIR GESTALTEN DRESDEN(@wirgestaltendresden) and was funded as part of the Federal Program for Sustainable Inner Cities and Centers of the Federal Ministry of Housing, Urban Development and Building.

The "Grüner Saum" project was financially supported by the Neulandgewinner funding program

The project focused on reactivating a sports field owned by Vonovia that had been derelict for years. The aim was to actively shape and revitalize this site together with residents and local initiatives. To this end, an open construction site was set up on site for a week, offering space for people to meet, exchange ideas and create together. Low-threshold formats, such as the neighborhood kitchen for cooking and eating together, created a unifying social practice where people from different backgrounds came together. In addition, there were a variety of activities such as sports activities, a senior coffee klatsch, singing, games and the "Zwinger Olympics", which promoted togetherness in the neighborhood.
