Design in an urban context // FUSION retrospectives with Elsa Prochazka and Verena Brehm

Designing in an urban context - Elsa Prochazka - 1992-1996
Discussion partner: Verena Brehm

Elsa Prochazka has left a distinctive mark with her multifaceted architectural work through urban planning projects, public buildings, residential, office and industrial buildings, particularly in the cityscape of Vienna, as well as through her multiple participation in the Architecture Biennale in Venice. At the interface of architecture, urban and landscape planning, her field of expertise remains a key to the conception of the discipline to this day. Together with Verena Brehm, she sheds light on the role that the urban planning context can play for architecture today and in the future.

FUSION Retrospectives

The Reform University Kassel is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Time to take stock and look ahead in architecture, urban and landscape planning as part of the FUSION lecture series.

The FUSION "Retrospectives" in the winter semester 2021/22 will focus on where we come from and what lasting accents our department has set. Pioneers who were central to the development of the department's profile will present positions and contributions in a review of their work at the university and beyond. In conversation with guests and colleagues, they reflect on the significance of architecture, urban and landscape planning at a reform university and in a rapidly changing society.
