Exhibition ‘Soil for All’

An exhibition by the Architekturzentrum Wien (Architecture Centre Vienna) explains the political, legal and economic background in a vivid and detailed, but also critical and sometimes unintentionally absurd way.

How does grassland become building land? Why is the price of land rising? What does all this have to do with our lifelong dreams? Case studies and explanations of terms shed light on the complex web of responsibilities. Country comparisons illustrate strengths and weaknesses; international best practice examples demonstrate alternatives. A collection of existing and prospective new instruments points the way to spatial planning that conserves land as a resource, mitigates climate change, alleviates the housing issue and promotes good architecture.

The exhibition can be seen at the ‘afo architekturforum oberösterreich’ (Upper Austria Architecture Forum) in Linz (AT) until 11 June 2022.
