With the curator of the exhibition, Ursula Müller, Head of the Architecture Collection

Wherever man builds, nature is destroyed. This dilemma is becoming increasingly clear in view of finite resources and the enormous contribution that construction makes to global warming. Three Berlin projects show how the opponents can become co-players. To this end, interdisciplinary teams are relying on the potential of mushrooms, trees and clay with the help of state-of-the-art technologies. Their buildings gain an ecological quality from the green materials, but also a completely new character: they breathe, grow and thus become alive themselves. The surprisingly sensual experience of this architecture creates a conscious relationship with our environment and can thus have a lasting effect beyond the material. In the exhibition, expansive installations make this tangible. In addition, sketches, plans, photographs and models explain the three approaches and designs of a forward-looking building culture.
