value scenarios
Core value creation: The Glassy Garages
A central component of the Garage Campus and therefore also name giving will be a series of “glassy garages”, each of which is geared towards an overriding purpose. They are purpose driven and combine a portfolio of “workshops”, offers and activities in order to bring the ideas on which they are based to life. The garages are places of visibility, instruction and learning, inviting people to observe, participate and create. They stimulate people’s natural curiosity through play, fascination, enchantment, surprise and humor. They help to break down prejudices through intercultural encounters, exchange, discourse and networking. Thematically, the glassy garages focus on current social challenges. They seek answers to social challenges at the interfaces of art, craft, business and science.

Therefore, it is essential that it enables the individual appropriation of open spaces and open areas in the exterior and interior of the space. For this purpose, the campus must be designed to be sufficiently modulable and, in addition to the long-term existing use scenarios, also permit short-term, spontaneous modes of use that are based on the needs of the people on site and constantly allow new aspects and changes to emerge.
