Sebastian Kubersky

Artist, loves the sledgehammer as much as finessing details. Weeks of squinting in front of the screen are followed by weeks of meticulous production in the workshop. All this is combined with a touch of bricolage responding to the installation´s needs on location.
Sebastian studied philosophy at Universität Hamburg and Fine Arts at HfbK Hamburg.

Christine van Meegen

Designer, occupies an out-of-the-box approach towards projects. She strives for understandable and simple designs. She is the initial spark for ideas, she conceptualises and brings people together, all topped with an insatiable material nerdism. Christine has a background in interior architecture and studied Social Design at Design Academy Eindhoven.

What

Studio C.A.R.E. is establishing an urban research-laboratory in the centre of Rotterdam for living and working under constant conditions of change.

We are researching and realising possibilities of sharing, using and transforming a space in a city. In terms of functional, experimental, modular, beautiful, resource-efficient and marketable conditions. We will rethink living in the city in a holistic way, looking beyond spatial issues.

The whole house, including our studio and our private space, works as a laboratory.

Why

• tackling actual space-related issues of modern big cities: rising prices of inner city spaces, displacement of inhabitants, market-oriented politics instead of people-oriented city making, growing nomadism

• researching new ways of working and living

• experimentation spaces are just great!

How

• setting up residencies, workshops and showcases through open calls = the lab becomes temporarily a common space

• involving practitioners from a diverse range of disciplines in order to tackle as many aspects of the holistic approach as possible

• real-life testing through us, project-residents and the local community/neighbourhood

• using sustainable/ reuse material where possible

• producing own resources, e.g. water (filtered rainwater), energy, food

• documenting and archiving developed ideas and concepts
