PSYCH.RAUM partners Dr Martin Voss (Charité/Berlin) and Jason Danziger (thinkbuild architecture BDA/Berlin) gave a joint lecture on May 20, 2022 at the Bau und Betrieb Psychiatrische Kliniken und Einrichtungen 2022 symposium organised by Management Forum Starnberg. It was a fascinating two-day conference, filled with lectures on healing architecture, suicide prevention in psychiatric facilities, and other topics, set in the dynamic Werksviertel close to the Münchner Ostbahnhof.
A great highlight of the conference was the lecture by Dr. Julia Kirch (pictured, in the middle) of a|sh (sander.hofrichter architekten, Ludwigshafen) titled “Bauen für die seelische Gesundheit” which, among other things, outlined typolgies of pyschiatric buildings and shared recent projects from her office. An archive of the symposium schedule can be seen here.
