Urban Design Thinking Challenge in Mannheim (Multihalle)
Multiplicities carried out an Urban Design Thinking Challenge with Dr Demet Mutman (Ozyegin University Istanbul). During the “Allez Hop!” festival, a bottom-up strategy was developed to activate the Multihalle in Mannheim.
In response to the question of how to make the Multihalle and its park more attractive, an international working group focused on a user-centred approach to find solutions and tools for different people and citizens to connect with the area.
The overall goal was to show new perspectives on how to activate the roof of the Multihalle, the park area and its symbolic role as a connection zone for the surrounding neighbourhoods with practical, procedural, but also digital tools.
