Earthworks abd Path Construction

2025

In the summer semester of 2025, landscape architecture students in the earthworks and road construction module examined structural road details in public spaces. The aim of the “Detailbuch 2.0” student research project was to analyze existing public spaces from a technical perspective and develop them further with sustainability in mind.

Based on previous work, the students examined selected spaces in terms of paving, drainage, stairways, and green spaces. In addition, alternative design proposals were developed with a focus on climate-adapted materials, permeable paving, and optimized drainage solutions.

The results were compiled in a detail book that combines analysis, hand-drawn plans, and conceptual approaches.

Model Making

2025

In this course, students explored a wide range of architectural, urban planning, and open space projects, which they then brought to life in carefully designed models. Through their research, they discovered influential buildings and important planners, while honing their technical skills and design eye through model building. As a result, each project not only resulted in a precise model, but also a deeper understanding of the stories, ideas, and concepts that shape our built environment.

Path connection

2021

In a fictitious small town in the foothills of the Swabian Alb, a path connection was to be created on two parcels of land. The students had to incorporate the local orchard landscape into the design and construct the stairs, ramps and walls as efficiently as possible.

Stairs and walls quartet

The students had the task of documenting walls and staircases during their field trip in Italy. The collected information was then processed in the form of a quartet.
