Tegeler Stadtheide — from Transformers & Radars to Urban Agriculture & Environmental Outreach
Bestand, Design Studio
In November 2020, the final flight departed from Berlin’s Flughafen Tegel, marking the end of nearly 50 years of operation. A key aspect of the site’s transformation is the creation of Tegeler Stadtheide — a 190-hectare landscape park. This new green space will serve as a vital refuge for biodiversity, an interdisciplinary research hub, and a much-needed recreational area for Berlin’s residents. In collaboration with Grün Berlin, the design studio will focus on repurposing several existing structures on the site, including transformer housings and a radar station, to establish a centre for environmental education.
