The exercise/project focuses on the following topics:
- Social-ecological-climatic orientation of transformation processes in planning and design
- Overall urban green space structures as a starting point for spatial interventions with relevance for urban development and open space planning
- Climate change adaptation in the context of urban redevelopment and adaptation of urban morphology
The specific area of investigation includes:
- in the first step the green space structures on a city scale (Green Space Network Hamburg)
- In the next step, the Bille corridor in the eastern part of Hamburg will be investigated in detail.
This course is part of the initiative of the annual theme 2023/24 "Transformation of the stock". For more information and an overview of all participating courses, please follow this link::

The course is based on the following mix of methods:
- Group work with a focus on discussion and knowledge exchange, both in the small groups (peer-to-peer exchange) and in the plenary.
- Interdisciplinary collaboration (spatial planning + architecture)
- Independent literature research
- Development of a "framework" (spatial framework) for analysis, concept and design
- Various spatial analyses and analysis methods (mapping, layering, superimposition of spatial structures)
- On-site explorations and site-specific analysis during the field trip (LVA EX 260.824)
- Inputs from topic-specific experts to perceive and enter discourse and to pick up local knowledge
- Create a concept from the space and define goals for spatial development
- Form scenarios
- Parallelize-Contextualize-Parameterize
- Process-oriented design
IMPORTANT: The on-site exploration will take place as part of a eight-day field trip to Hamburg, Germany.
- 16th to 24th October 2023 in Hamburg
- Arrival and departure each day before and after, to be organized and financed by yourself
- Until 4th of October 2023 a deposit in cash for prepayment for entrance fees in Hamburg has to be paid (100€) (to be handed in at the secretary's office at the research department Landscape Architecture and Planning, main building, staircase 7, 3rd floor)
This course is aimed at spatial planners AND architects. The project work is done in interdisciplinary (mixed) groups. The number of participants is limited to 20 students of architecture and 10 students of spatial planning.
For architecture students, this course counts as Design Studio with 10 ECTS - in addition, there are 2 ECTS for the excursion (LVA EX 260.824) from the elective catalog. In total, this results in 12 ECTS.
IMPORTANT: Registration for students of architecture is done via the pool registration. A portfolio must be uploaded in the pool application.
For spatial planning students, this course together with the excursion counts as a Master's project in spatial planning ("Project 3") with 12 ECTS.
IMPORTANT: Registration for students of spatial planning is done via the General registration in TISS for the master project spatial planning (LVA 280.A68). A portfolio must be submitted by email to bianca.pfanner@tuwien.ac.at and nikola.pohl@tuwien.ac.at. General registration is open until 30.09. - but the portfolio must be submitted by Monday, 25.09.2023.
IMPORTANT: All students who have registered for Design Studio, please also subscribe to the field trip (LVA EX 260.824). Registration for the excursion will take place in person at the kickoff on 10/03/2023. The exercise or project can ONLY be attended and completed in combination with the excursion. The excursion is an integral part of the exercise or project, which is therefore also scheduled.
