Description
The Toolbox is a further development of the Koffer project – a growing collection of ideas, methods, and experiments at the intersection of culture and architecture. It gathers the insights and outcomes of the 2025 seminars as well as the impressions and findings from two research journeys to Brazil. The Toolbox is more than just a container: it is a dynamic instrument that brings together diverse perspectives, materials, and approaches, ready to be opened, tested, and expanded. Like a real toolbox, it holds tools for thinking and building – full of unexpected connections and possibilities that encourage new, climate-conscious and culturally grounded ways of creating space.
