Being part of the waterscape experiment, this design studio concerns the shifting river landscapes of Switzerland. Existing sites are worked topographically at a –for architects - unusual large design scale. The design method combines traditional landscape design and modelling techniques with the use of advanced CNC technology.

This part of the curriculum addresses design work in different areas of architecture and urbanism and integrates the knowledge acquired in previous years. It involves the active participation of specialists from related disciplines (e.g. building structures, landscape architecture, history of art and architecture, monuments conservation etc.).

Developing an urban planning concept for Schlieren East is the current task of the cities Zurich and Schlieren; this is our starting point as well as topic for the next semester. Students will define an urban planning programme for the whole area. In the following a location within the project perimeter will be chosen individually to be dealt with in landscape architectonical terms.

We aim to seize economic requirements to transform constraints into levers, producers of qualities. These may well be tangible or intangible, prosaic or poetic, constant or unstable, general or occasional... As long as they are initiated by the economy and located far from any rationality. Creating generosity, “excesses” that make the strength and uniqueness of a place.

The Allmend Brunau in Zürich will be the subject of a spatial rogramme concerned with open space and designed to enhance the experience of the city walker. Students will focus on questions of distance, scale, scenography, programme, materiality and atmosphere in relation to a chosen walk across the new territory.
