Carboneum Concepts
Germany's largest artificial lake will be created after excavating an open-cast mine east of Cottbus. The area between Cottbus Ostsee and the city centre will be developed in a climate-neutral way for leisure, housing, culture, and commerce.
The Carboneum cultural forum is planned in the harbour quarter, featuring exhibitions, education, research, events, and gastronomy. The architectural design and building concept will be climate-neutral and constructed with sustainable materials. The challenge is the traffic connection with the B168 bypass crossing.
What is the future of the open-cast mining site? How do we construct a resilient community where they may improve the quality of life and accomplish a 'brave new world' for future generations with the availability of new technology and ways.
