Berlin, Germany

Yesterday we did a little precedent field trip for our studio project. The theater was called Schaubuhne. The building was a little outdated, but the inside functionality was nice. The really interesting part was the theater itself. The floor is made up of about 75 panels that can all be mechanically moved up or down. They can change where the seating or stage is for any show. They can also change the landscape of the stage for the show. The ceiling was also this interchangeable grid system where lighting can be shifted in accordance with the floor layout. Pretty neat stuff, very different.

Today we got back to Altlandsberg, Germany for a second field visit. By the way, we got in like 2 or 3 newspapers out here. I'm going to try to get a copy as soon as I can.

Tomorrow we have a day trip to Desseau to see Bahaus and a new green environmental building.

This weekend is Prague :)
