Time as a long neglected stepchild of urban planning could now offer a variety of tools to tackle current challenges of cities all over the world. Unpredictable developments in climate, population and economy ask for a new flexibility in planning and building neighborhoods to be sustainable and resilient to upcoming changes. Concepts, like the 15min- City explore the relations between Space, as the hardware, and Time, as the software of cities. However Chrono Urbanism, in this seminar, also depicts how time could affect and transform the current way of urban planning for a turn from masterplans to transition as a project itself. Temporary urbanism can bring bold ideas into a short realtime intervention.

The different rhythms of the city at day and at night will be investigated to find even more relations between space and it´s timing. During the seminar, the students will research and discuss how these various concepts of integrating time in planning processes could look like and define spots, where these ideas could be implemented. At the end of the seminar each student will present her/his proposal of a time based planning intervention, on a chosen spot, underlined with a well researched reference
