Bernburg Loop - Treasure Hunt

Concept Layer-1 : Stringing together the different precious stones
Each point of attraction has it’s own local identity and it’s own character, they all are very different from each
other and each one of them is special and unique in it’s own way and as landscape architects it is our job to bring
out the beauty of each of these sites. We imagine each one of these point of attractions as a precious stone, which
awaits to be chiselled out into it’s most suitable shape by a jeweller and at the end all these different stones are
strung together to make a beautiful piece of Jewellery.
Concept Layer-2 : The family Tree
Certain points of attractions/precious stones, even though they do not have the same appearance, share certain
characteristics that are the same and follow the same theme, they are like members of the same family which have
the same surname but are still different personalities at the end of the day and yet somehow belong together as a
group.
Families/Themes for Loops : Historical, Recreational, Cultural and Industrial.
The Vineyard: The Tipping point
1. Using the local identity, or character of the Vineyard and enhancing it to it‘s full potential.
2. Using the activities that are already being carried out there and building upon, developing upon them to
give them a more prominent identity.
3. Involving people in the design of the space, maybe letting a small patch of the site, unaltered, left for the public to make a decision together and design it together.
4. Using the multiple aspects of the site and somehow putting them together, for example: the spectacular view fromt he vineyard, the train passing through every hour, the church and the free open space outside the church, the abandoned space.
5. Maybe try to string these series of small activities ,small movements aspects together to become together one important significant activity together, like the progression of chapters in a story, that add up to make the entire novel.
