Project description

The Rosenheim municipal library wants to initiate new cultural impulses at the heart of its city of 63,000 residents. Together with the Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences, it has built an open, flexible, 144-m2 temporary structure on Salzstadel Platz, the plaza in front of the library, to serve as a dynamic forum of discussion on current issues and developments. In so doing, the municipal library is promoting the current urban development process to redesign Rosenheim’s downtown in response to the increasing number of vacant storefronts.

The library cooperated with students of the Technical University of Applied Sciences to design the temporary building using different modules. The work was accompanied by proposals for various formats for vibrant exchange, developed by representatives of the city’s community, e.g. the Stadtjugendring, city marketing office, the city management office, the Vielfaltsgestaltern (Diversity Designers), the adult education centre (VHS) and dedicated citizens. The forum addresses a wide range of topics, such as environment, urban gardening, sustainability, mobility, digitalisation, cultural diversity and political participation. In combination with the exhibitions, workshops, lectures and a possible co-working space, the forum has become an active, flexible venue of social cohesion, empowerment and digital/analogue experimentation.
