In the autumn of 2020, we hosted a four-day Architecture Autumn School led by architect Sarah van der Giesen and designer Tessa Geuze.
Participants explored how to translate their ideas for the city into design, focusing on the interactions they missed in the new COVID-era. The resulting designs, a series of columns, pay tribute to the shared spaces people long for. Concepts included a public film space and a place to observe animals up close.
These designs are a heartfelt response to the desire for connection and communal experiences in a world reshaped by the pandemic.
