Abstract

The 2022 Urban Architecture graduation studio explores urban leftovers of the city of Maastricht, and the studio's anthropological approach finds ways of cherishing and learning from the ambiguous identity of a place. The leftover spaces may not need large-scale planning but more a set of local urban interventions with the multidisciplinary research method. Stitching spaces at first requires the appropriate reading of the site.
Wandering and reflecting through the record of memorable places that once were community builders in Maastricht was used to formulate the architectural brief for the given context – paper fabric located in Sphinxquartier.
The city's memory carries some critical architectural features, and its cherished, especially in public spheres, incubators of people's ideas, needs, and initiatives. Its remarkable qualities fluctuate depending on the needs and characteristics of the communities it gathers.
