  • Community between panels

     

    Although the first prefabricated buildings were built in Western Europe after the Second World War, they are undoubtedly the synonyms of the post-soviet countries like Hungary. Negative connotations towards prefabricated housing estates neglects the diversity of these areas and their diverse development processes in past years. Undoubtedly, their judgement has been changing, and it is perhaps time to revalorise these areas. We made a very first attempt in the Come in! Transfer Network to do that by organising a pilot community festival in Őrmező.

It is an easily adaptable community festival in Budapest called locally Budapest100 celebrating the city’s built heritage and common values. Let's see that this knowledge has been put to good use in Őrmező.
