Its team has worked on temporary-use projects since 2009, initially as a pilot project and now in collaboration with Bremen’s administration.111 The organisation operates across the city of Bremen, supporting temporary uses as a way to bring vacant spaces into use and connect them with local activity.312
ZZZ advises property owners, matches prospective users with available spaces, develops concepts for challenging properties and supports projects through implementation.1 Its work also includes helping with project approvals and linking temporary uses to local development.
