minimal housing

In the Architekturzentrum Wien summer exhibition we immerse ourselves in the worlds of South Africa – in particular those of Jo’burg, as the inhabitants of Johannesburg lovingly name their city. Taking our inspiration from impressions of the exhibition, we build our own shelter – a roof of twigs, walls of old car tyres to provide protection from the wind, or even a hut, in the courtyard of the Architekturzentrum Wien.

Further Dates:
Tue, 10.08.04 + Wed, 11.08.04, 10:00 am – 02:00 pm
Tue, 24.08.04 + Wed, 25.08.04, 10:00 am – 02:00 pm
