espazium quaderni 3/2026
Modellare il futuro | Shaping Tomorrow è il nuovo numero di espazium quaderni, dedicato al passato come risorsa attiva per ripensare il futuro delle costruzioni.
Co-curato da Ena Lloret-Fritschi, Silke Langenberg, Selen Ercan Jenny, Orkun Kasap, Francesca Mirone e Graziella Zannone Milan, il volume nasce dai contributi della terza edizione del convegno Making the Past Productive, svoltosi presso il Teatro dell’architettura dell’Accademia di architettura di Mendrisio, e rilancia il dibattito su sostenibilità, costruzione circolare e trasformazione dell’ambiente costruito — tra riflessioni teoriche, innovazione digitale e nuove prospettive progettuali sul patrimonio esistente.

espazium quaderni 3/2026
Shaping Tomorrow | Modellare il futuro is the latest issue of espazium quaderni, dedicated to the past as an active resource for rethinking the future of construction.
Co-edited by Ena Lloret-Fritschi, Silke Langenberg, Selen Ercan Jenny, Orkun Kasap, Francesca Mirone and Graziella Zannone Milan, the volume builds on the contributions presented during the third edition of Making the Past Productive, held at the Teatro dell’architettura of the Accademia di architettura di Mendrisio, and expands the discussion on sustainability, circular construction and the transformation of the built environment — through theoretical reflections, digital innovation and new design perspectives on the existing building stock

"Vielfalt ist unser Erbe – La diversité est notre patrimoine – La diversità è il nostro patrimonio" is a campaign developed for the 60th anniversary of ICOMOS Suisse by students of the Department of Architecture at ETH Zurich.

The campaign was created as part of an academic design research project and further developed for implementation by the Chair of Construction Heritage and Preservation. The project explores ways to communicate building culture to a broader public and demonstrate its essential role in everyday life.

Drawing from Switzerland's linguistic and cultural diversity, the campaign pairs architectural works from different regions with terms from national languages and dialects. Language and architecture are presented as parallel cultural expressions shaped by history, geography, and identity. Rather than portraying heritage conservation as restriction, the campaign presents it as the recognition of cultural diversity as a shared legacy.

The campaign was first produced as a postcard set for the general assembly of ICOMOS Suisse and now consists of a modular series of posters, postcards, and digital applications.

#Exhibition #Preservation #AFutureForWhosePast

Prof. Dr. Silke Langenberg was recently featured in an interview with SRF discussing a broader and more inclusive understanding of cultural heritage.

The conversation explores how heritage preservation can move beyond traditional monuments to include places that carry social meaning for different communities — from migrant histories and women’s stories to unexpected sites like skate spots. The key question behind the project: “A future for whose past?”

By looking at objects that hold both physical and intangible value, the initiative highlights how cultural heritage is shaped by many voices — including those that historically had little visibility or lobbying power.

WERTVOLLE RÄUME — Exhibition

The Einsiedeln Abbey is one of the most significant sacred sites in Switzerland. For over a thousand years, it has shaped the religious, cultural, and architectural identity of the place. Yet churches and monasteries are increasingly empty, raising fundamental questions: How can a spiritual place remain relevant in an increasingly secular society? And what kinds of spaces does the monastery need in order to continue serving both the monastic community and the public in the future?
Last semester, architecture students from the design studio Langenberg + Bischof Föhn at ETH Zurich explored these questions through an in-depth engagement with the monastery and its spatial future.

The exhibition “WERTVOLLE RÄUME” (Valuable Spaces), on view 29 March – 9 April 2026 at the monastery, presents the wide range of architectural proposals developed during the studio.

You are warmly invited to the opening on 27 March at 15:00, where students will present their projects and discuss possible futures for the monastery.

Exhibition: 27.03.–09.04.26
Opening hours: daily 10:30–18:30
Please report to the reception at the courtyard gate (Hofpforte).

Opening / Vernissage — 27.03.2026, 15:00
15:00 Welcome by Abbot Urban & semester review
15:30 Presentation of projects & discussion
16:30 Apéro

Location: Kloster Einsiedeln, Grosser Saal

Spring Semester 2026 — Lecture Series

Teaching Team: Prof. Dr. Silke Langenberg & Salome Schepers

In the spring semester of 2026, the seminar focuses on Switzerland’s recent building stock, paying particular attention to the impact of Analoge Architektur on architectural production since 1987. Invited guests reflect on their time as “Analogs” at ETH Zurich and present their built works. Selected projects will be examined in detail and discussed in relation to their heritage value.

How did Analoge Architektur shape the building stock of the 1990s and 2000s?
Why is Analoge Architektur significant for the heritage of recent architecture in Switzerland?
Which buildings should be preserved to highlight its legacy?
What challenges arise in assessing this architecture?
And how did Analoge Architektur influence the practice of building within existing structures?

Prof. Dr. Silke Langenberg was featured in the recent WOZ article "Heimatschutz heute - Es könnte so schön sein" discussing how heritage preservation today goes far beyond protecting historic buildings.

The text explores questions of collective memory, social responsibility, and who gets to define what is worth preserving. From displacement and housing to minority heritage and participation, the interview highlights why conservation is always a societal issue.

Last week’s two-day symposium in Munich took place at the Pinakothek der Moderne and Pavilion 333. This year’s symposium built upon the European Parliament’s 2024 Directive 2024/1799 on promoting the repair of goods, which provided the impetus for the Werkbund to revisit its founding principles. The focus was on achieving good and distinctive design as both a cultural and economic contribution, and on exploring how repair can be embedded in design across all scales.

Our Chair of Construction History and Preservation contributed to the discourse through presentations by Prof. Dr. Silke Langenberg and Dr. Matthias Brenner, who shared perspectives on repair in teaching and research.

The symposium was developed in close collaboration with Prof. Dr. Silke Langenberg (ETH Zurich), Prof. Dr. Andres Lepik (Architecture Museum of the Technical University of Munich), and Prof. Dr. Angelika Nollert (Die Neue Sammlung – The Design Museum). It was supported by a strong alliance of institutions spanning research, education, design, and craft—including the Architecture Museum of TU Munich, ETH Zurich, Die Neue Sammlung, Munich University of Applied Sciences, the Chamber of Crafts for Munich and Upper Bavaria, and Galerie Handwerk. The insights generated during the event will inform a forthcoming publication.

It was supported by a strong alliance of institutions spanning research, education, design, and craft—including the Architecture Museum of TU Munich, ETH Zurich, Die Neue Sammlung, Munich University of Applied Sciences, the Chamber of Crafts for Munich and Upper Bavaria, and Galerie Handwerk. The insights generated during the event will inform a forthcoming publication.

#Werkbund #Symposium #Repair

Last week’s two-day symposium in Munich took place at the Pinakothek der Moderne and Pavilion 333. This year’s symposium built upon the European Parliament’s 2024 Directive 2024/1799 on promoting the repair of goods, which provided the impetus for the Werkbund to revisit its founding principles. The focus was on achieving good and distinctive design as both a cultural and economic contribution, and on exploring how repair can be embedded in design across all scales.

Our Chair of Construction History and Preservation contributed to the discourse through presentations by Prof. Dr. Silke Langenberg and Dr. Matthias Brenner, who shared perspectives on repair in teaching and research.
