Waiting Lab

Waiting, is a longing toward to the future, a courisity for the new comming things and the border of respect. A lab, is the place for trying, testing, discovering the uncertainty. Therefore, a waiting lab which combines the desire to later and the experimenting for now. The redevelopment of the KLT diliapidated site presents the responsibility to revitalize the landscape, and offer several possibilities for people to wait, observe and explore themselves from active zone to dirt way that is in order to find themselves in both man made  and natural landscape. And this project identifies the environmental concerns including fauna and floral as far as human recreation and amenities. The Idea of converting an industrial brownfield into a wild nature piece which also serves as an urban park space is proposed. More specifically, the project reveals the relations between a former coal mining site of König Ludwig Trasse and the appearing wildness.  The redesign of the site aims to establish its new functions to benefit the passers-by, to offer a delightful habitat for the richness of biodiversity as well as to lead a trail for discovering the beauty of industrial nature otherwise hidden.
Since the size of the site is around 1,800,000 square meters and could not be perceived as a conservation area but an open lab for recreating different types of habitats, such as wet prairie, shrub zones, the woodland zones from the abandoned. It is also promising to regenerate a healthy and sustainable biotope to welcome the vegetation and animals to live, hunt, nest, mate, etc.
