Lower East
A new Urban Safari Berlin is coming up – October 28 and 29.
Helle Marietta and Jørgen Smidstrup have based their design company, Lower East, in Berlin since the end of 2011 and have been exploring the “arm, aber sexy“ city ever since. Matti Straub-Fischer, from changels, have after several visits insisted on creating an opportunity for others to dig into this diverse mix of creativity, design and playfulness. Together they organize and host the Urban Safari Berlin – first one held in November ‘12 and again in April and May ‘13. This is the deal:
- We will start on Monday morning, October 28, 2013, at 10:00 in our classroom, in a coworking space in Berlin.
- We will be a group of around 15 curious, interested and interesting people like yourself. Invitations will be spread with sure hands in Switzerland, Austria, Germany and in Scandinavia.
- We will be safaring on bikes, and on foot, by U-Bahn and again on bikes – the most fun way to explore and stop and go again.
- We will have time to follow our noses, our instincts, enjoy the crème-de-la-crème of the Lower East and changels exploration so far in this town.
- We will have a space, where we can listen and discuss – and share inspiration and inputs. We will have time to reflect, to talk, to draw, to sketch, to laugh and to enjoy.
- We will be done by Tuesday afternoon, October 29, 2013 at 17:00. Here we finish up at a start-up and very cosy winebar NOR (not only riesling) in Kreuzberg with a glass of ‘see you again’ wine.
- After the Urban Safari, you will receive a rich visual documentation on our days in Berlin.
- Matti, Helle and Jørgen will be your scouts, hosts and the facilitators for the Urban Safari.
- Together with Camillos Paladar, we will all put up a playful and inspiring dinner on Monday night. Camillos Paladar is a pop-up (mostly in Copenhagen, Berlin and Bern) restaurant with gorgeous food and remarkable wines. That alone is worth the journey.

It’s time for Urban Safari Berlin! It’s time for treating yourself well. It’s time for focusing on your creativity!
Come join us on an intense 2day safari with special focus on inspiring business, creative spaces, the co-working scene and sparkling start-ups.
We have on September 12 and 13 put together a sparkling journey for you in the urban jungle. [If the dates doesn’t fit your calendar, the next Safari is planned to October 28 and 29].
The vibrant metropole Berlin, is a melting pot of start-ups, young entrepreneurs, fresh ideas, inspiring atmospheres, cool exhibition venues, cosy cafés & restaurants and just amazing corners. A perfect spot to explore, make you smile, think of (old and) new ideas, wonder about how funny & crazy some ideas can be – and simply enjoy the love for new, small and bigger beautiful things.
The Urban Safari is a co-creative initiative of changels (Bern) and Lower East (Berlin).
