Watergardens Mainau / Überlingen – Building projects

Together with the Pennsylvania State University, USA, we have designed corresponding “water gardens”, which create an artistic / architectural / poetic connection between Überlingen and Mainau. Two of the gardens will be realized for the garden exhibition Überlingen 2020 – we will show you the designs in detail.

International workshop “watergardens”

In 2020, the State Garden Show will take place in Überlingen, in cooperation with Mainau Island. The task of the international student workshop with Pennsylvania State University, USA, was to design two corresponding “water gardens” that create an artistic / architectural / poetic connection between Überlingen and Mainau. Several of the gardens will be realized in 2020.

Workshop with the Pennsylvania State University (USA) 

Together with students from Pennsylvania State University (USA) we created designs for the Rhine promenade in Bonn Bad-Godesberg, directly opposite the famous Drachenfels. In international working groups, we first visited and analyzed the site, hiked together in the Siebengebirge, visited an exhibition about the Rhine Romanticism, then worked out our ideas in the studio. For five days we designed, discussed and celebrated together with the American students in mixed groups.

Rhine promenade Bonn Bad Godesberg

Together with students from Pennsylvania State University (USA) we created designs for the Rhine promenade in Bonn Bad-Godesberg, located directly on the opposite side of the famous Drachenfels. The aim was to design a modern promenade for today’s uses, but to be inspired by the unusual spirit of the place to come up with a special solution! For five days we designed, discussed and celebrated together with the American students in mixed groups.

international Workshop “watergardens”

Also this year we organized a workshop together with the Pennsylvania State University, USA. At the invitation of Mainau Island and the city of Überlingen, we spent five days at Lake Constance to design sculptural gardens. Together we drew, built models and celebrated. Three of the gardens are to be built in 2020 – at the end of the workshop the works were presented to a jury and awarded prizes.
