Residence in Gleis21

Reclaim was one of the four residents staying and working in the Viennese Baugruppe project Gleis21 for one month to investigate the collective living practices in the new neighborhood Sonwendviertel. All four residencies are documented in the catalog Bahaus in Residence im Gleis 21.

Reclaim participated in a panel discussion as part the following program of the European Bauhaus: Activate conference at the Center for Architecture and Municipal Planning CAMP in Prague.

Reclaim Žižkov

Reclaim Žižkov is a strategy proposal for transformation of the half-abandoned town hall block of Žižkov into a loca micro center.

Reclaim Prague is a strategy proposal for a collective living network, imagining collaboration and resource-pool between independent co-housing projects and beyond within the city of Prague.

Reclaim Havlíčkovo 300

Reclaim Havlíčkovo 300 is an architectural and strategical proposal for transformation of the abandoned primary school into a mix-use house combining experimental affordable collective living with a myriad of public or semi-public uses to be run by a cluster of not-for-profit collectives.

Reclaim Žižkov was awarded a runner-up in the Regaining a sense of belonging category at the New European Bauhaus Awards Rising Stars 2022! The category for concepts by authors under 30 years of age recognises "inspiring examples of beautiful, sustainable and inclusive projects that contribute to promoting a sense of belonging."

In the text for the CAMP zine we share an insight into the Viennese project Gleis 21. The accompanying photo essay is an output of the Bauhaus in Residence project, in which the residents themselves recorded life in and around Gleis 21 using analogue cameras.

Reclaim Štítného 40

Reclaim Štítného 40 is an architectural and strategical proposal for a slow transformation of the vacant town house into a small not-for-profit cooperative covering housing and various semi-public uses.

Interview for CAMP

In an interview with CAMP Zine, we talked about Reclaim Žižkov at the NEB Prizes and the role of affordable collective housing in the context of the housing crisis.

This workshop took place at the end of the residence in Gleis 21. In the opening lecture, Reclaim offered its observations on the life in and around the house and the contemporary Viennese production of collective living. In the following open discussion we collectively contemplated what inspiration could the Viennese experience offer to the imaginary housing project for Prague called Gleis 22.
