The cultural tips from Jo Landwehr

Jo Landwehr @ Dorfmüller Klier

For the light muse: … go to the MKG again.
because: … the current exhibition of the New York agency Sagmeister & Walsh provides information about the beauty of things. “Beauty” is multi-layered, exciting, interactive and an experience for all Generations! The MKG is worth a visit anyway.

Für Experimentierfreudige: … ein Abendessen im „Kuchnia“
weil:
… Polnisches Essen, Georgische Weine, kiezige Interieurs und im Zweifel auch der Wodka
unverhoffte Überschungen bereithält.

The cultural tips from Jo Landwehr

Which is not to be missed: … French fries on the jetty in Teufelsbrück
because: …because there are hardly any better low-threshold offers in beautiful Hamburg and paired with a walk through the Jehnischpark doesn’t even care about the calories.

Favourite projects

Your favourite building: … the Altona hospital
because: …it’s a beacon of proportion.

Your own favourite project from your office: The new Haspa building at Schulterblatt…
because: …in many ways, it reflects what we’re working for and what we’re working on:
– the mixed-use mix of housing, subsidized housing, office space, banking, safe, storage rooms all in one house and behind one facade
– the “unlocking” of the urban development situation in dialogue with the sculptural elaborate facades of the neighbouring buildings of the Wilhelminian period
– the open design of the ground floor zone despite high safety requirements and risk of vandalism
– Wooden windows in commercial buildings!
– the cooperation and integration of Heiko Zahlmann’s art within architecture designs (Kunst am Bau)
