Storytelling is a powerful medium to get connected to each other. Story harvesting is something that you may not have heard of, but as important as storytelling.

NION Community visited the exhibition “How to talk with birds, trees, fish, shells, snakes, bulls and lions”. The theme is highly relevant to our vision and philosophy.

NION is an urban development project for, by, and with Berliners. Join us in the weekly community meeting to find out more and be a player of your own city. Let’s co-create a more livable and lovable Kiez for all!

Naho Iguchi is NION’s Chief Community Catalyst. She tells us her personal story about community design and the NION project.

We don’t want to tell people how to think and behave, but we hope that everybody who wants to become part of NION is eager to share our principles. They are based on our experiences and reflect our ethics.

Six months after the visit of the lead architect from Kengo Kuma and Associates, the world renowned Japanese architecture office, Kengo himself came to meet us in Berlin.

NION attempts not only the new urban community living, but also the new way of making it happen. If we raise more awareness in the process, how we do things, we will be automatically benefitted.

Rita Topa, one of the lead architects from Kengo Kuma and Associates, the world renowned Japanese architecture office, visited us to conduct a pre-alpha research for NION.

Our second creative workshop was full of cutting, stacking, laying, and glueing tiny plastic buildings to create miniature models that displayed imaginations and wishes of the NION community.

One of the regulars at NION Popup Store was a weekend flea market.
