Steff Fischer – From »Zurich is burning« to »Zurich is booming« / TALK (DE)

In the 1980s, Steff Fischer was a squatter and part of the youth movement in Zurich. Today he is an important player in the real estate market. With his company Fischer AG, he initiates alternative housing projects and creative strategies for urban development. Citing specific examples, Fischer will show the potential of intermediary uses and conversions in the urban environment – from the transformation of office buildings into residential real estate or the innovative use of temporarily vacant spaces to projects like the »Basislager«, a settlement of repurposed containers for creatives.
