Architektursommer Rhein-Main 2014 in Darmstadt:
Osthang Project: July, 7th to August, 16th 2014
Opening Weekened: July, 25th to July, 27th 2014

60 students and interested people are invited to participate in an experimental building workshop from July 7th to July 27th 2014 in Darmstadt. 
During three weeks the participants of the Summer School will develop a temporary campus for the Osthang Project along with international artists and architects. The structures built over the course of the Summer School will subsequently become a platform for further Osthang Project events and be available as a public space and a venue for projects and initiatives in Darmstadt and the surrounding region. The city itself will be challenged as a space of negotiation, experimental building strategies and methods will be tested. On occasion of the 100th anniversary of the last exhibition of the legendary artist colony a new temporary artist colony will arise.

The teams - invited by curator Jan Liesegang (raumlaborberlin) - represent a mix of collectives & artists, with varying cultural origins will focus on an international dialogue on the theme of «collective and experimental building». They will negotiate the framework conditions in the run-up to the Summer School and perform some initial preparations. ASSEB are looking forward to:
