Follow Me: Berlin's Airports

On the 5th of June Topos Magazine will host a conference in the old buildings of Berlin-Tempelhof. The theme: the new and the old airports. What role will this new airport on the fringes of Berlin play in the development of the city into the future? What will become of Tempelhof, Tegel & Gatow? Reiner Negel (Berlin Administrator for City Development & Environment), Christoph Schmidt (Grün Berlin Gmbh), Carlo W. Becker (bgmr Landscape Architects, Berlin), Eelco Hooftman (Gross.Max., Edinburgh), Peter Schatz (WES & Partner, Oyten), Martin Seebauer (Seebauer Wefers and Partners, Berlin) and Tancredi Capatti (Capatti Staubach, Berlin) will give a lecture covering the recent plans and urban design development. Tone Lindheim from Büro Bjørbekk & Lindheim (Oslo) and Atelier Dreiseitl (Überlingen) will present development plans for Nansenpark: sited on the grounds of the former Oslo Airport "Fornebu". The park forms the framework for further residential development of the inner-urban area. This Conference will be supplemented by the Topos Landscape Award 2012. The last chance to RSVP is the 1st of June. Beware: the number of participants is limited to 150. The price for the conference is 50 Euro (includes drinks & lunch pack).
