Abstract
The importance of this project is to make a creative center in Berlin, Germany that supports all forms of creative expression. A Potluck Creative Center will add space for creative ambitions and give communal enjoyment (value), to the neighborhood. A condenser for all informal creative forms, where persons who practice different forms can teach, learn, and display. Giving a platform for informal art to be in an experimental grey zone where it can be measured, yet uncontrolled between spatial barriers (formal-enclosed and informal-exposed).
The scope of my project is to create a framework to base a creative module form. The design will create a prototype using a module that can be used in other projects to result in structured informal learning. Creating a program that can combine and transform how different creative forms are viewed on a broader scale in the competence level of professions. Praising how creative forms are being embraced through learning may solve some of the social and ecological imbalances within a neighborhood, that are overlooked.
Through embracing the commons this project aims to create prototypes of individual free-thinking spaces and programs while creating a unique multi-functional horizontally hybrid architecture form that can be used for inspiration. This architectural design is to showcase that massing forms should embrace special features based on location to create a successful site addition, while the module/prototype can allow the program, and interior design to embrace flexibility. Permitting for program transformation for future use [adaptability and sustainability].
