“Architektur bedarf einer stringenten Logik und kann dennoch Unschärfe zulassen. Flux Order will in der Vereinigung des scheinbar Gegensätzlichen das Ungewisse als Potential begreifen. „Architecture as Cave“ beschreibt Architektur, deren räumliches Potential die individuelle Aneignung erfordert. Dem gegenüber steht die „Architecture as Nest“, in der die räumliche Situation durch die Architektur konstruiert ist. Im Spannungsfeld dieser Dualität soll im Entwurf eine Struktur gefunden werden, die den Spielraum der Möglichkeiten zwischen definiert und aneignungsfähig auslotet und somit das Potential des Wandels zum Ausdruck bringt.”
Our project “Common Land” receives the 2nd prize in the competition for cooperative housing “Fleur de la Champagne” in Biel.

“This studio is founded on the belief that an understanding of how things are made brings an intimate engagement with the problems and possibilities of the real world. We are interested in the material life of buildings, how we process the fabric of our environments to construct spaces. From local resources to global trade; vernacular methods and new technology and auxiliary industrial processes -we will consciously appraise our materials.”
Weyell Zipse is part of the publication “image [im-ij] \ ˈim-ij \” by Archaic Studio.
“A design and communication tool, the image remains a decisive and crucial step in the definition of any project, whether it materializes through its construction or persists under the form of paper architecture.
With Image, Anja Dotter invites us to feel the pulse of a young guard of European architects by questioning them about their relationship to images.
Through a series of interviews with emerging architects, photographers and image makers, Image highlights and confronts different approaches to the architectural image in a world where it circulates, travels and is shared more than ever!”
