After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand the spatial qualities of an abandoned site and recognise its historical context. They can reinterpret these locations, relate them to other models and experiences and thus integrate them into a new concept.

Our cities are littered with sites that have been abandoned in the course of growth and development. Disused infrastructures, industrial wastelands, residual spaces and margins are examples of places that we perceive as neglected spaces of the city, which, despite their diversity, are an expression of real history and thus prove to be a source of identity.

Thinking about these spaces raises questions about a new interpretation of the location and its use. The traces of the past offer the potential to give the sites a new identity through strategic and tactical interventions. We explore these spaces and recontextualise and reinterpret them as art spaces in the city.
