TALK | ARCH+ / House Europe!
In February 2025, the European Citizens’ Initiative HouseEurope! begins their voting period to propose legislation prioritizing renovation and adaptive reuse. To help make the case against demolition and vacancy, the Berlin-based magazine on architecture and urbanism ARCH+ will stage a “witness hearing” in the form of a conference at CIVA. Practitioners and theorists from all over Europe will exchange insights into successful approaches, but also economic, legislative, and architectural hurdles to a spatial practice of repair and care. In addition to spatial experts, members of the European Parliament are invited to directly address legislators. Speakers include MEP Rasmus Andresen (Greens/EFA), Laurens Bekemans (BC architects & studies & materials / RWTH Aachen), Oana Bogdan (&bogdan / HouseEurope!), Iva Čukić (Ministarstvo prostora), An Fonteyne (noAarchitecten / ETH Zurich), Gabu Heindl (GABU Heindl Architektur / Uni Kassel), Petra Hlaváčková (4AM Forum for Architecture and Media / Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien), Josiane Schmidt (ETH Zurich, HouseEurope!).
