MEDIA DESIGN | Bachelor Design Project | ELEVATED DISSECTIONS

Braunschweig's inner-city passages are dead.

This process started with the opening of a huge mall in the city center which pulled window-shoppers out of the pedestrian precinct. Covid and the lockdowns gave this process the final push - most passages are empty and host not more than one or two remaining shops, some are closed down or about to do so.
The decaying typology is now a dead corpse, a zombie, reminiscent of a time before internet shopping.

We took the chance to document this phenomenon.
Each group of students went to take a series of "the horror, the horror"-photographs to get closer to the atmospheric qualities and architectonic essence of their assigned passage.

By drawing a series of sections and combining these into a graphic system, the spatial qualities, historic changes, and atmospheric observations were condensed.

In the final step, a 3D model was created from that section graphic.
The resulting model, therefore, is not a geometric representation of the space, but a carefully crafted and conceptualized "reverse-model" that shows architectonic qualities, atmospheric observations, spatial combinations, and artistic interpretations of the given passage.
