Fences are a symbol of inclusion an  d exclusion. In our two-day workshop, we take up this symbol and make it the starting point for encounter: we build seating furniture together from old construction fences.

With creativity, humor, and craftsmanship, we transform what separates us into something that connects us. Building instructions, tools, and technical support are provided—no previous experience is necessary. Come by, join in, and help create a place of encounter.

The construction fence

Looking forward – shaping tomorrow together! But who gets to make decisions in today's design processes?
In our society, decision-making power is closely linked to ownership: those who own a lot get to decide a lot. Those who own little get to decide little.

We have chosen the construction fence as the leitmotif of our exhibition. A fence encloses – and excludes. It stands for exclusion from use as well as from co-determination.
But in a world of scarce resources, we must learn to share: spaces, infrastructures, materials. For us, design therefore means involving as many people as possible.

Ready-Made

We continue the tradition of ready-made art: the appropriation and transformation of existing objects.

Today's designers no longer find an untouched world, but one that has already been exhausted. The task is not to start with a blank slate, but to design from what already exists—to nurture, preserve, and transform.

From limitation to encounter

Fences mark boundaries. We use them to create encounters.

In workshops, we transform used construction fences into seating furniture. This creates a space that brings people together.
