MoMove Modern Movement and Infrastructure

Preface: Since its foundation in 1990, Docomomo International has been dedicated to the documentation and conservation of buildings, sites and neighborhoods of the Modern Movement. It has devoted thirty years to study and protect the architectural heritage of the Modern Movement through academic and professional practise, case-studies and bestpractises, and the dissemination of knowledge. Facing the rapid digital developments and globalisation, Docomomo fostered its role as an international platform by offering new services, by making the knowledge and information available online, and by creating the new Docomomo virtual exhibition - MoMove. This was created by Docomomo International, Lisbon Headquarters, in 2015. Since 2014, the Detmold School of Architecture and Interior Architecture is an institutional member of Docomomo Germany and Docomomo International. It seeks to contribute to this mission with different contributions. As a co-organizer of the Docomomo Germany Conferences since 2019, the Detmold School was able to connect research and educational projects to the events, often exploring novel forms of ideation, documentation, design and dissemination. All this was conceived to fully exploit the creative and newly gained digital potentials, for the reuse and safeguard of the recent built heritage. This year’s contribution aimed to create new contents for the MoMove produced by students of the master’s programs of Integrated Architectural Design (MIAD) and Integrated Design (MID). The goal has been to further develop MoMove into a strong dissemination and knowledge exchange platform. Being part of the first digital Docomomo conference, these exhibits showcase and apply current digital visualization, and communication technologies. The exhibition, also, demonstrates the students’ reflections and concerns towards the future design of the built environment, inspired by the lessons learnt from Modern Movement. This small publication collects the students’ exhibits and puts them in the current context of open science and scientific communication. We hope to inspire you as a reader and visitor.
