SUPPORTING FLUSS BAD BERLIN AUCTION ON SEPT 12, 2024
For Berlin Art Week, the non-profit organization Fluss Bad Berlin will be featuring the exhibition and auction "50 Für Bad Berlin" in the Red Salon of the Bauakademie. Fluss Bad Berlin is a civil society initiative for urban development committed to making swimming possible in the Spree Canal and, in the long run, in other sections of the Spree River.
"50 Für Bad Berlin" will present works primarily by Berlin-based artists and architects who show solidarity with the objectives of the Fluss Bad Berlin project and the team behind it. They advocate a sustainable development of Berlin for the common good.
We have donated a piece from the Data Collages by Jürgen Mayer H. for the auction.

This exhibition highlights the work of artists and scientists striving to render visible the people, histories and planetary conditions that have been erased within the cultural mainstream, helping to make legible the limits of our own conception of the invisible and its ecological and humanitarian ramifications.

Competition win, Sugar Valley, Munich
The international design contest for the former concrete factory in Munich's Obersendling has been concluded. In the so-called Sugar Valley, we designed a hub for socio-cultural interaction on the central plot. The offering of culture, gastronomy, events, and communal areas defines a unique DNA for the entire district with the integration of active artistic elements. The neighborhood in Munich's southwest will be one of the most sustainable in Germany, bridging modern work and living environments. The first phase of construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2027.
Competition win, 5-Zero Cheongdam Tower, Seoul
The city of Seoul launched the competition to enhance the urban qualities of the capital and to improve the quality of life for its residents. Out of many submissions, six were selected by the committee for meeting the high standards of concepts for a sustainable city and for having designs with international appeal.
PRINCETON REVIEWS
In May, Jürgen Mayer H. joined the thesis reviews for two days of speculating on the potentials of architecture in action. This year's projects at Princeton School of Architecture showcased a unique moment in architectural thinking. Performative articulations in presentations and real-life implementations were definitely a part of it. Congratulations to the students and faculty for two truly inspiring days of discussions about what the future holds for the profession.

J.MAYER.H at FEEDBACK
Activation event with concert, guest-speakers panel and exhibition of works on February 27th at UIC – Universitat Internacional de Catalunya, Barcelona - hosted by iBAG-UIC Barcelona (Institute for Biodigital Architecture & Genetics) and the Biodigital Architecture Master.
This exhibition situates discourses of design control through projects of a diverse community of architects, artists, musicians, fashion designers, and interactivity designers, presenting their work in close proximity in order to distill individual disciplines, obfuscate them and elucidate on the effects that FEEDBACK– both in its instrumental and conceptual time dimensions – has on their work. It seeks to expand upon FEEDBACK in its many iterations as a residue of an action – like guitar feedback – and as litmus of an action’s effects – like a FEEDBACK loop.
