Let’s be honest – Stuttgart’s Marienplatz isn’t exactly a shining example of mordern urban design these days. So together with the trend scouts at Mercedes Benz, we rolled up our sleeves and gave this central urban square a fresh new perspective. The rough timeline: 2035.

In our vision for the future, the square neighbourhood gets a healthy dose of rewilding, the city’s iconic cog railway is extended by a futuristic cable car, and the U-Bahn entrance is transformed into an inviting local market – and that’s just a few of the many  little stories we integrated.

As always, working with the Pioneering Next team was inspiring and wonderfully productive. A big thank-you!
