Follow the becoming of the policy lab HouseEurope! To Build Law follows the architecture firm bplus.xyz (b+) and the teaching and research platform station.plus (s+) as they establish HouseEurope!, to propose industry reforms and shift cultural norms.
To Build Law closely observes the b+ team during various phases of conceptualization and development of a European Citizens' Initiative meant to incentivize renovation over demolition and new construction. Through this bottom-up legal tool, architecture becomes an open process of establishing partners, drafting legislation, filming stories, strategizing communications, coordinating campaigns, collecting votes, and building a movement.
The film will be presented by HouseEurope! Initiators Olaf Greiwert and Alina Kolar in collaboration with OBEL Award
