The Aedes Network Campus Berlin, ANCB, is a unique "Metropolitan Laboratory" focussing on the future of our cities. After three decades of exhibiting, publishing and convening some of the world’s most internationally acclaimed and pioneering architects, Aedes have opened their doors to researchers and students from all around the world. ANCB offers a full annual programme of conferences, workshops and seminars in which participants are challenged to address the complex issues facing tomorrow’s generation of city makers. In workshop units of two to four weeks, participating universities engage in a full academic programme with studio visits from architects, artists and specialist planners. In order to encourage public debate as well as the cross-pollination of ideas, ANCB ensures the outcomes of units are readily accessible through an annual publication and exhibition. An annual conference also provides the opportunity for participating faculty to evaluate the year’s work and to discuss any organisational issues.
