MK2 is an office for cultural spatial development. We take care of the kit that holds everything together. Culture is our medium. Existing potentials, networks and cultural dynamics are activated. We accompany, develop and realise. Interactive learning processes and transdisciplinary collaboration are our innovation drivers. We create spaces for people.

We investigate, analyse and anticipate.
