Prof. Ingo Johannsen (IFR) and the Knowledge and Technology Transfer (KTT) team transformed the new studio at the Ostfalia Campus Wolfsburg into a lively pop-up construction site on 3 December 2025. The event offered visitors an open space for ideas, dialogue and visions for the future - and impressively demonstrated how versatile the emerging creative space can be used.
Diverse hands-on and exhibition stations
At the stations, guests had the opportunity to
- Develop future visions for the creative space
- Discover prototypes, upcycling approaches and sustainable materials
- learn more about the mushroom mycelium working group as a material of the future
- Gain insights into research and laboratory analysis
- get to know the Material & Technical Design studio
- and find out about Gründen@Ostfalia
The event also offered numerous opportunities to exchange ideas, network and develop creative impulses.
Artistic and experimental contributions
The programme was supplemented by student works, free image projections, pop-up productions on the subject of plastics recycling and a graphic recording.
