Water used as an aspect of architecture is a highly complex topic. It represents both remarkable opportunities as well as unusual challenges. The possibility of reflecting on architectural use of this mate- rial in an exceptional group of well-known international and highly-qualified architects is the declared objective of the AquaTektur workshop series of Axor. Real innovations are seldom conceived by highly specialized experts. The ability to maintain a cer- tain distance to the object under consideration is a prerequisite for innovation, which, apart from the inter- action of generalists and specialists, also presupposes a degree of latitude to be successful. In this second AquaTektur workshop as well, Axor created all the necessary conditions and, again, harvested an abun- dance of new ideas. The differece to the initial event, however, is quite clear. Whereas the participants of the first workshop concerned themselves more directly with the concrete product or the bathroom, this time a form of architectual "semi-distance" was maintained. The fact that we, as global players in the sanitary fittings industry, are able to repeatedly acquire an inspirational boost from the architects in this workshop series is an expression of our willingness to engage in an open dialog on the subject of archi- tecture and water. We are doing so because we see this commitment as a long-term process. And we are aware of the important role played by architects in the process of innovation relating to technical building systems and fittings. “Re-thinking the bathroom“ – for architects, this is not necessarily revolutionary. Repeatedly ques- tioning architectural assumptions is a core aspect of the profession. Thought must also be given to the ever faster changes in life style, in bathing habits and in room layout. In this way, the approaches from which innovations grow originate in practice. Havana was selected for the Aqua Tektur workshop for the second time, the reason being that, when architects from all over the world get together to think about such matters, there is no ideal locati- on. There are only places that are more suitable, or less suitable. The best possibility appeared to be a city that was characterized by water and, at the same time, had to be very careful in how it used its water resources. Havana presented the ideal conditions for reflecting on the topic of “water houses“ – houses next to, around, in and on the water. How well this experiment succeeded and how all those involved, the architects and also Axor, gained valuable new insights, is documented in this book. Why this workshop? 009 gmp Architekten von Gerkan, Marg und Partner (D) With more than 190 realized projects worldwide gmp ranks among the most renowned architectural practices influencing modern architecture and generating visions for the future. Functional requirements and the demands of the users are equally significant aspects of their work as are the aesthetic requirements of a build- ing, an ensemble or a city. The realized projects compri- se of airports, sports facilities, administration and offi- ce complexes, municipal buildings, shopping facilities, hotels, residential buildings, museums as well as cultu- ral and trade fair complexes. Amongst these are the Berlin-Tegel and Stuttgart airports, the New Leipzig Trade Fair Centre and Halls 4 and 8/9 in Hanover, the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center in China Christus Pavillon, Expo Hannover/Volkenroda, D but also the interior of the Metropolitan Express Train.
