Kick-Off "The Shack"
Friday, 16 June 2023 from 17:00 on the Büchelwiese ín Aachen.
With "The Shack", a corrugated iron hut is being created at ZwischenZeit on Aachen's Büchel as a temporary innovation lab and exhibition.
As part of an impromptu design project at the Department of Landscape Architecture, students examined the living conditions in the townships of Aachen's partner city Cape Town and developed ideas and applicable solutions that could make life in a shack (corrugated iron hut) easier, such as multifunctional supply and furnishing modules for using the limited indoor and outdoor space. The results will be exhibited in "The Shack" and made available as DIY instructions on the dooiy.org website to reach many people in similar living situations worldwide. https://dooiy.org/
The kick-off event for "The Shack" is on 16.6.2023 from 5pm and from 7pm live music from Cape Town and Aachen. Young people from Cape Town townships who are in Aachen as part of this year's student exchange programme will be there.
The project is being undertaken in partnership with: i am light, Cape Town Aachen and DOOIY
