We are a collective of artists, craftspeople, architects, material scientists and urbanists and work in an interdisciplinary field between art, design, spatial planning and social engagement. Our main motivation is to appropriate public space with various formats and in cooperation with other city makers and, together with city residents, to enable low-threshold access to activities, workshops and social and cultural offerings in the neighborhood.

CITY OF THE FUTURE DRESDEN 3.0
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.

Projects

The FOR:UM infrastructure was created in 2022 as part of the City of the Future. With this tool for low-threshold actions in public spaces, we temporarily activated various locations in 2023 through various pop-up formats. We are now involved in a wide range of projects to promote urban development for the common good and urban practice! We usually do this in cooperation with local actors and with the help of a broad network of supporters. In our project overview you will find our activities, some initiated by us, in cooperation or as a commission. A mix of volunteering and paid work.
