During the 'Kommt auf die Baustelle!' festival, a media exhibition on the upcoming exhibition floor will unpack the design’s key themes under four titles: 'The Task', 'A New Place', 'From Darmstadt to Berlin', and 'The Tower'.

The exhibition traces the genesis of the Bauhaus Archive—from Walter Gropius’s designs for Darmstadt through to the envisioned museum ensemble—illustrating the interplay between old and new construction. The focal point is the construction of an experimental tower, a prominently visible signpost for the new site, signalling its emerging identity.

For the 20th anniversary of the Neues Museum Nuremberg, Volker Staab's first work, the museum presented an exhibition by Staab Architekten in the six façade rooms. Through planned and built projects, it became clear how profound the influence of context is on the work of Staab Architekten and how broadly our office interprets the term "context." 
During the five-month exhibition, the museum's façade spaces were put in scene in an uanusual way. Transparent image planes changed the effect of the formative visual axes and visual references in the building, transforming the open spatial areas into light-filled berths. This intervention not only made clear the museum's relationship to the square in front of it but also played with the building's basic idea of allowing the cut-open museum spaces to become visible behind the glass façade.
