Panel Discussion

Berliners are increasingly attracted to the idea of being able to swim in the Spree River. Politicians have also discovered the project’s significance for the city’s development. The Flussbad Berlin association has been assigned the task of realising the project as part of the „National Urban Development Projects Programme“ launched by Germany’s Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety and the Berlin Senate Department for Urban Development and the Environment. Flussbad Berlin has called on three architects and designers with extensive experience in developing intelligent strategies for socially relevant projects, to lecture and discuss the project.
