Meeting is an agreement

Whatever the case may be. We want, indeed need, to meet again to debate new ways of playing and scenarios in physical space. Without filters, face to face, from person to person. Inspired by interaction. In order to fulfill this function, these “new places” must have a magical attraction. And a community, including management.

Sweatpants overboard!

Leaving your own four walls must be worthwhile. Uninteresting meetings in uninspired rooms do not do justice to this desire and necessity. The nature of the room and the demands of the people have become decisive success factors.

Spaceships

One answer to these questions is the EntrepreneurShips jointly designed by CMb.industries and SORAVIA. Spaceships that clear the fog and reveal new territory. An EntrepreneurShip is a place, process and landmark on the water at the same time. A floating market for missions, a commercial vessel of the present. It quickly opens up new areas – for work, leisure, research and lifestyle. The modular arrangement of the containers complements the ecology of a city or area and is adapted to the surrounding space. The upcycled ships open up an extroverted expansion space with international appeal. Where they set anchor, the launching of new ideas and perspectives begins. The synergetic interaction with the area where the ship docks creates a new coastline of creativity. Ideally, an EntrepreneurShip reinforces and expands the projects on land.

Boardbar

On board, containers are combined as stores, bars, offices, workshops and/or living labs in various sizes. High-quality and smart design combined with rough surfaces, defined contours and a striking silhouette – the claim is: ReUse, ReThink, ReDefine… and not only look chic, but also be intelligently networked. A mix of workshop rooms, public spaces, shared spaces, coordinated event formats and freely rentable event spaces are the prerequisites for a flourishing ecology. The modular container design is as flexible as the people who help shape it – wellness and lifestyle elements can also be created on request. Thanks to the simple, Lego-like modular system, many, many wishes can become reality.

School ship

A berth at a place of learning such as a university or university of applied sciences would open up new areas of activity and combination possibilities for its students thanks to the upcycling container ship. The ship and its eager-to-learn crew would create positive “waves” internationally and attract talent.

Ahoy work

With a curated tenant mix of corporates, start-ups and grown-ups as well as suitable service offerings, EntrepreneurShips create the conditions for an inspiring workplace. They stimulate the collaboration of overlapping economic sectors, create an ecology of making and provide a chic counterpart to urban densification.

The city on the water

For the pre-Socratic philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus, the course of water is always a metaphor for the ongoing process of emergence in nature and history. Water derives its tangibility as an object from the boundaries of banks and riverbeds. However, these are due to the movement of the water, which constantly reshapes the banks and riverbed.

Off to new shores!

The obvious interpretation of the metaphor is that identity and permanence owe themselves to permanent change and the ability to understand and shape the course of time. This applies in a special – and not just metaphorical – way to cities.
