In October 2006 Prof. Tadanori Nagasawa and Prof. Hiroshi Imaizumi (MAU) led the first street stalls workshop in Cologne, together with Prof. Philipp Heidkamp (KISD).
Street stalls as an interface in between the city life and the city space. There are many different kinds of street stalls in the city. These street stalls as temporary structures might be serving many different kinds of goods and services in the public space, which must be based on the cultural context of the city life. The aim of this workshop is to explore the meanings of the relationship between »design« and »public« through the survey of street stalls in the city. You will find a new function of »interface« as new aspects of design through this workshop.
