WH22
– a work of art by many for many
The WH22 as a work of art that you can walk in, as a social space and a living representation of the lumbung idea: our concern is to preserve and think ahead about the WH22 as a resource that is supported and used collectively. For the WH22 site, we envision a communal quarter with a focus on cultural and social uses, which is characterized by mutual cooperation, democratic participation and collective management.
