The 2011 IPCC Summer Design Studio brought together an international team of professionals, academics and students from the fields of architecture and planning to develop IPCC's plans for the Al Addasseh neighbourhood of Jerusalem. The studio offered an opportunity to exchange knowledge and methodologies from around the world to help approach some of the complex planning issues in Jerusalem.
It ran for a total of seven weeks and ultimately produced a plan along with detailed documentation about the processes, ideas and precedents that influenced the design. The design was developed with the input of local architects and planners through a number of presentations, crits and discussions that took place throughout the project.
The summer studio was a pilot project for a permanent design studio which will continue to research and analyse planning in Jerusalem and help to broaden and develop IPCC's planning knowledge and capability. The studio was organised in partnership with UN-HABITAT.
