Abstract:

Having experienced the hospitality of Mexico City in 2001 and 2004 and worked with students there,
as well as working with students in Berlin for many years I was faced with many questions.
These questions are about living and working in a city. They look at design and communication, they
take a closer look on public life, personal places and official signs. There are questions about personal
attitude, way of thinking, living and designing.
There might be some answers to these questions. I will try to get them through a few projects, all done
in Mexico City and Berlin by students from both cities.
Maybe we will even have more questions in the end.
