If the ready-made principle of art also applies to architecture, how can a “Ready Made Architecture” benefit more from the existing qualities and the potential added-value inherent to used products and materials? How to incorporate recycling and reuse into architecture, contemporary design and urban planning? What does a new architecture, which shortcuts material and transportation flows, look like? The laboratory-talks will be held in German/English.
