Sonja Berthold, Dietmar Leyk, and Philip Ursprung discuss city, culture, and density at the AIT-ArchitekturSalon in Hamburg.
This discussion draws directly from the themes of the exhibition. Through models, videos, and concepts, it explores how urban spaces can be expanded through vertical growth and improved through carefully considered densification. The focus is on future-oriented cities and architectures that are compact, green, digital, and both spatially and functionally permeable. On the panel, Prof. Dr. Philip Ursprung (Professor of Art and Architectural History, ETH Zurich) joins SPACECOUNCIL founders Dr. Sonja Berthold and Dietmar Leyk to engage deeply with the topics of city, culture, and density, inviting reflection on the future of urban design.

SPACECOUNCIL Exhibition “Mutualities – On Liveable Density” opening at the AIT-ArchitekturSalon in Hamburg.
Cities are our future – Leading the way towards a greener, healthier, and more integrated world.
Cities hold the resources and potential to become the driving force of radical change. They are pivotal in addressing the dramatic impact of CO2 emissions and in creating greener, healthier, and more integrated environments. This future of urban design takes centre stage in the exhibition "Mutualities – On Liveable Density" by SPACECOUNCIL, showcased at the ArchitekturSalon in Hamburg.
The exhibition presents SPACECOUNCIL's projects through models, videos, and visualisations, illustrating how urban spaces can be expanded through vertical growth and enhanced by thoughtful densification. The architects highlight the potential of sustainable inner-city developments—densities that transform the planet through future-forward metropolises that are compact yet lush, digitalised, and both spatially and functionally open.
