#DDREAMS: Public Spaces made in the GDR
Grand boulevards, squares, courtyards: What can we learn from them?
@ Sergey Nikitin-Rimsky
DDReams (DDR Dreams), a project seminar for architecture master’s students from Potsdam Fachhochschule. With this seminar young colleagues are invited to explore the public spaces’ legacy of East Germany and its relevance for 21st-century city life: livability, aesthetics, politics, economics, and climate resilience.
With #DDReams key cities of eastern Germany are visited, exploring spaces from courtyards to grand boulevards, and listen to the people who built, lived, and consider their actuality for the present day.
