    Mobility Systems Laboratory

    Are we really experiencing the greatest revolution since the invention of the railway and the automobile? To answer this question, we combine innovative concepts with planning and simulation tools in the mobility systems laboratory, which help us to design new solutions and take a look into the future.

    Modellbauwerkstatt der FH Potsdam

    Model Making Workshop

    The model making workshop is universally equipped and can thus meet a wide range of requirements. The workshop is assigned to the department CITY | BUILDING | CULTURE, but can also be used interdisciplinarily and is thus also open to design students, for example.

    Metallwerkstatt der FH Potsdam

    Model Making, Painting and Metal Workshop

    The model-making, painting and metal workshops of the Design department are creative spaces and are used for the realisation and production of mock-ups, dimension and functional models as well as finished prototypes ready for presentation.
