URBAN DRIFT is an independent label and network based in Berlin, which
promotes a trans-cultural urban strategy employing all forms of media and
using the cityscape as both a medium and a sphere of action. Members of
Urban Drift act as tacticians for a contemporary urban praxis, developing
the discourse within Berlin as one of the primary cities of flux. Our aim is
to communicate architecture and urban design to a wider audience, to extend
the boundaries of the architectural discourse, and to maximize the potential
of interdisciplinary practice.


URBAN DRIFT is ....// a hybrid urban praxis, opening up and communicating
architecture to a wider audience // urban survival strategies // time-based
architecture,  temporary and ephemeral // urban transformation and the
reanimation of lost, forgotten, hidden city spaces // drift-inspired by
random movement // neon-inspired // trans-cultural collaboration // the city
as a medium // scavenging, remapping and resampling the city in light, sound
and text // urban nomadism // 24 hours nightwalking // the reinvention of
spaces // intervention // urban curating //  'cities need planners for the
next century, planners who are autonomous, able to grasp multiple aspects of
reality and refashion them as narratives, to link an increasingly
heterogeneous population in decision making processes' // working with the
city's second skin // fluid identities which are never fixed, communicating
a mobile, fluid urbanity /


Enjoy the drift....
