Flow – A New European Bauhaus Film is now available online. The documentary explores the people and stories behind six European projects that put the New European Bauhaus values — sustainability, inclusion and beauty — into practice.
Among the featured initiatives is BE-WoodEN in Imperia, showcasing the renovation of shared spaces in the social housing building at Via Pirinoli 47. The video explores how participatory design and a self-building workshop helped create new opportunities for residents to meet and spend time together, with particular attention to older people. The use of wood and the creation of modular furniture support an approach that connects the quality of shared spaces with environmental sustainability and social interaction.
Alongside the full film, which features projects in Hamburg, Bruz, Imperia, Gabrovo, Frasta and Helsinki, an extended video dedicated to Imperia is also available. The documentary and individual project videos can be watched on the European Commission’s audiovisual portal and the New European Bauhaus YouTube channel.
