Item Restricted The incomplete story : preservation and future usage of abandoned buildings in Berlin as human cultural heritage : the Eisfabrik example(2018) Awad, Mohammed; Martín, Javier; Pöğün-Zander, Yüksel; Faculty of Architecture and Design; Berlin International University of Applied Sciences"The abandoned buildings of Berlin are part of the human cultural heritage that carries the story of the city and this part of human history. The fast-growing city and the influence of modern, global human problems necessitate new ways of dealing with buildings and neglected urban spaces. The Incomplete Story is a study that deals with human cultural heritage as one universal issue. The aim of this study is to provide an example of how to re-use an abandoned building based on human cultural practices that can have a positive impact on cities and the connections between nations. This is achieved through presenting a proposed design for The Eisfabrik as an example. The methods used in the thesis are theoretical research into human cultural heritage and preservation and restoration methods, followed by a case study on three contemporary examples of the re-use of buildings that have had a significant impact on their cities and human cultural heritage. The results show that turning the Eisfabrik into a Live Museum will have an outstanding positive impact on the city and on humanity. As it connects humans and places together. It also shows that studying buildings can be a point of inspiration regarding future usage and create a cultural spot that works complementarily with the city story and the community. The thesis also shows that the Eisfabrik has the potential to be nominated for the World Heritage list. Future research, and further methods to achieve this great step, are recommended in order to rescue the Eisfabrik and create a new landmark and cultural attraction in Berlin."Publication Metadata only The post-wall-era club culture of Berlin as cultural heritage : "Where there was jag, there is art"(Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2021) Phillips, Mark Nicholas; Pöğün-Zander, YükselThis chapter presents the temporary autonomous underground club scene of Berlin that emerged in Berlin following the fall of the Wall in November 1989 and traces the conditions in which these spaces came to blossom as “interiors without architecture.” The major social, political, and economic modifications that the reunification of Germany necessitated affected the cultural landscape of Berlin and resulted in changes in the cityscape. Abandoned buildings and the consequent ambiguity in legal ownership, combined with the unstable infrastructure and lack of authority, enabled the development of the Berlin model known as Zwischennutzung (temporary use). The anti-aesthetic of the partially illegal club scene with a lack of finish or redesign of spaces, remains the manifestation of what has become a cultural tradition for the city.
