The Meinen Butchery was a large scale butchery located in the midst of a residential area in Bern, only a stone’s throw away from one of Switzerlands largest hospitals.
The area has recently been demolished, making space for a modern residential project, thusly displacing the butchery into the periphery. Akin to the bunker-like architecture of yesteryear, the butchery has yet again assumed a different form of obscurity.
Peripherie is a work in progress, compromising of both photographic as well as written material.

City on Water

Amidst the ruins of Tokyo, a major force in rethinking japanese
society after the second world war were the metabolists, a group
of architects, utopians and designers who thought and worked on new
ways of urban planning and city development.
Hallmarks of their approach were the conviction and belief in unbounded technological progress as well as the need for urban expansion on water, thus resulting in architectural ideas that resembled an otherworldly techno-utopia.
As a testament to bold ambitions of past and present stands the waterfront city of Odaiba with its ever growing expainsion into the bay. This city on the water has a special status in times of rising sea-levels, representing a model of how the city of the future might look like.
