Берлин можно назвать европейской или даже мировой столицей техно-музыки. Сейчас, когда техно-клубы закрыты из-за пандемии, организаторы предлагают придумать, как можно подбодрить любителей этого жанра. Задание – спроектировать временную структуру, рассчитанную на одного посетителя, где можно было бы танцевать и наслаждаться лучшей техно-музыкой Берлина, при этом социально дистанцируясь. Единственное ограничение – площадь конструкции не должна превышать 4 м2.

Berlin is the undisputed home of techno music in Europe, and probably in the whole world. The distinctive energetic music flourished in the underground scene of a newly-reunified Berlin at the start of the 1990s. Originally held in abandoned factories, hangars, and underground stations, illegal raves that celebrated life and freedom and were fuelled by techno music soon became legitimate clubs that still operate to this day.
Techno music clubs and raves have felt the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, with venues quickly being shut down to limit the spread of the coronavirus. The Berlin Techno Booth competition is a light-hearted initiative to help cheer up the tired and frustrated techno music community by introducing dance cabins to the streets of Berlin.
For this competition, participants are being asked to design a temporary structure that could accommodate a single dancer, allowing them to dance and enjoy Berlin’s best techno music, all while socially distancing. The only constraint is that the structure needs to have a maximum area of 4 m2.
While there are no specific requirements for design submissions, participants are encouraged to be as creative as possible, challenging the typical ideas of housing, design, and the community at large. Those projects that manage to merge blue sky thinking with an element of practicality will likely be the most successful.
