Prof. Klumpner participated in an event focusing on water in urban spaces, invited experts will discuss examples from river delta regions in China and Europe, exploring architectural research and practice. In light of the current challenges posed by aging water infrastructure, such as the collapse of the Carola Bridge in Dresden, the discussion will address programmatic and technical aspects of renovation, improvement, reuse and conversion, as well as the management of water in urban areas and across regions.
Moderated by Aric Chen, supported by the Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU) and the Embassy of the Netherlands in Berlin, and on the occasion of the opening of the Aedes exhibition Wind Blows, Water Rises with NODE, design office of Architecture & Urbanism, Shenzhen; and the Greater Bay Design Innovative Lab (GBA Lab) of Shenzhen University
