The floating university is a peculiar spatial experiment in a quiet corner of Kreuzberg, Berlin,. It has been a centre for architectural knowledge production of the highest level since 2018. Its freewheeling design, a constantly evolving constellation of open timber structures, is drawing some of the finest thinkers operating in architectural circles. Even more highbrow, the pseudo-institution was the centrepiece of Raumlabor’s Golden Lion-winning installation at lthe Venice Architecture Biennale.
