Cologne is layered with different forms of water. The Rhein, Aachener Weiher, Eau de Cologne, The Kölsch.

The Rhein nurtures the city as the first “inhabitant" of Cologne.
It flourishes the land like how communities joined their hands together and built up Aachener Weiher step by step.
It flows in every Kölners’ veins like how the mystical Eau de Cologne was once believed to have the power of cleansing one’s body and soul.
It brings people together like how the locals raise another Stange of Kölsch to all its visitors as a hearty welcome.

The water crossing Cologne is a vast body of calm reflecting our past and present.
The water in Cologne is an artificial identity of prosperity that witnesses our endeavors and diligence.
The water from Cologne is an invisible spray of refreshing dew that starts our brand-new day.
The water of Cologne is a glass of golden magic that flushes away our worries today.

Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. Water is what bonds us all as one.

The Digital Postcard no longer requires the recipient's address information. We have replaced the address area with a map showing where the postcard is coming from and going to, giving the recipient a visual sense of distance and more geographical information.

We have kept the stamp and the virtual postmark so that the digital postcard can be as close to a physical postcard as possible while limiting the length of the message written by the sender, thus distinguishing the postcard from the email.

Do landmark buildings create Glasgow’s style? Perhaps, but perhaps more importantly, the buildings are often overlooked as we walk along the streets.

Unlike other cities, Glasgow's old buildings are often just a wall away from modern architecture. We see the traditional metal roofs and classical stone buildings of Central Station standing in contrast to the contemporary hotel complexes around them, the House of Fraser and the Bank of Scotland across the street surrounded by black marble, the old buildings standing alongside the modern offices on Bath Street...

The contrast and co-existence of architecture are unique to Glasgow. We have attempted to give the recipient of the postcard a full sense of the city's architectural form by showing the diversity of Glasgow's architectural styles and their coexistence dynamically.

Nestled in the Tien-Shan mountains, at an elevation of 2020 meters above sea level, lies the land of the freedom-loving Kyrgyz people. They carry with them memories, heritage, and culture passed down from their ancestors who witnessed the rise of the Silk Road, the conquests of Genghis Khan, Soviet colonization, and the formation of modern, independent Kyrgyzstan. The Kyrgyz culture, shaped by centuries of local climate, historical events, diverse religions, and external influences, is rich in depth and spirituality, captivating the hearts of foreigners. But delve deeper, and this land will welcome you as its own child.

Poetry is the music of the soul, bringing melody to the chaos of life and turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. Then the melody makes its way to take shape of music that evokes emotions, provides a form of self-expression, and serves as a form of entertainment. Yet this music, when taking shape of written literature, it powers lives by expanding perspectives, inspiring new ideas, and providing a deeper understanding of the human experience.

Introducing Naryn, Kyrgyzstan (Postcard project)

The Hohenzollern Bridge is a relic of old times. Old times, Germans used to call their head of state Kaiser, and this Kaiser was called Hohenzollern. A bridge being the embodiment of the power a militarist state had over Cologne. To my right, an irritated bird is flapping, and different pigeons are screaming. Different languages are spoken in my surroundings. There is a construction site nearby. The sandy underground crunches just very subtile with every step. Is this old building finally falling apart? What would there be instead of it? Whould there be a bridge just for cars? Doesn`t the bridge connect the different realities of living on each side of the river? If you face the river, you can hear the water flowing and foaming in the process. Water levels in the Rhine are ever-changing. Trash is flowing, as are the people flowing by. I won't ever see them again. The breaks of a bike are screaming, and it then continues as a quiet whir of a bicycle chain. There is no reason to stop. For me at least. There is something I cannot hear, I cannot feel. Its the view over the city, the moments people in love share on this bridge. Maybe there is a reason to stop.

We asked ourselves: What does this place mean for the city of Cologne, for the people of Cologne, and for us? In how far does it represent cologne?

Glasgow Cathedral was built in 1136 for St Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow, and took 300 years to complete. It is believed to have been here that St Mungo founded and named Glasgow in the late 6th century, making Glasgow Cathedral a testament to the city's history.
Perhaps this is Glasgow, where you can walk past the buildings of the heyday of the industrial age and turn around and walk into an old medieval church.
Glasgow Cathedral stands in the midst of these Victorian ruins, reminding the world that glory always passes and that it is important to look at every step of the way in order to make your own way through the world's ups and downs.

The Allotment Gardens Blücherpark have been established in 1930. They are located in Bilderstöckchen in the West of Cologne. 675 symmetrically arranged gardens provide habitat for people, animals, plants and inanimate objects.

The gardens illustrate the conflict of urban living and the longing for untouched nature. People create a green oasis, within the limitations of the 20x8m rectangular parcel.

Nature and artificial objects come together, fighting each other and forming a symbiosis at the same time. Soft moss, round leaves, lush grass and spiky branches interspersed with cold hard metal fences. Opposites come together and become one.

Our postcard invites you to embark on a sensory journey and perceive the environment in a new and more intense way and to question its composition.

Along the banks of the River Clyde, we can find traces of an industrialised city in transition. Here, we find a mixture of new and old buildings. Historic sites and new living spaces merge, such as small design studios. The function of the riverside space is being reinvented. It is becoming more daily and accessible, and is becoming part of our lives. We are working here, cycling and do various kinds of leisure activities.

Group 35 Postcard- Memories Of The Ruins In Forres

Group 35 Postcard- Memories Of The Ruins In Forres

# data[].attributes.body
Ruins connect the past with the present. Our team researched some abandoned buildings in Forres. These ruins witnessed the historical changes of Forres and also expressed the precious memory of people in a period of time. We use our imagination to reflect the life of the people who lived in this building before through the details of the ruins' interior.

We hope you will enjoy every corner of Forres and the stories contained in these ruins.

（Ps.There is a QR code on the back of the postcard, and the recipient can scan it with a mobile phone to enter the ruins in person）

Forres is a town in the north of Scotland on the coast of the Moray. It is a very natural and pleasant place to live. The locals are friendly, warm and welcoming, with no barriers and will give you a smile when you walk down the road. The lifestyle of the older people is very diverse, walking their dogs during the day, getting out into nature, and going to some of the bars and pubs in the evenings to socialize and relax.

To compare with general pubs in Britain, Forres pub's lights are brighter and you are sitting inside with more of the sound of the TV, people talking, clinking glasses, etc. The overall environment is more like being in someone's living room, very comfortable and a different experience.

As you can see on the cover, the Forres pub is a small space for family-style communication, more characterful and open.

# data[].attributes.body
If there is one thing that makes Forres the most interesting place to visit, it's the Grant Park in winter, where people live and enjoy themselves, children skiing and playing, dogs fetching branches and people running in short sleeves.

At the same time, we can stand on Nelson's tower and see the magnificent view of Findhorn from afar.

Glasgow "A Scholar's Sanctuary" it seemed for us

# data[].attributes.body
We are in Scotland, Glasgow for our one-year master’s course at Glasgow School of Art and we have been missing home a lot. Sadly, we cannot say the weather is great, it keeps raining whenever and becomes extremely chilly from time to time. We wonder how the dogs don’t feel cold here when going out for walks. The owners do make their fur babies wear these incredibly cute raincoats and sweaters.
Surprisingly, also Glasgow is extremely pet friendly, they are allowed on public transport, in cafes and museums. On a visit to the Burrel collection in Pollockshields we realised something very special and guess what, they had special puppy ice-creams at the canteen! Hearts melted. We can conclude that we are very comfortable here and people here are very helpful, kind and generous. Once due to strikes one of us was stuck on the curbside unable to get to university, a kind lady overheard the call about the problem. She offered to give a lift to GSA in her Uber. She has a very big heart to take a detour to help a stranger.
A lot of Asian restaurants and grocery shops make us feel at home. The population in the largest city of Scotland is so culturally vast. We never feel like an outsider that often. Feeding the ducks at the local park near one of our accomodation has been a blissful experience. The streets are spectacularly clean.
The days are short and nights are longer but still we feel quite safe on the streets after dark. Students have so many privileges, we can avail discounts at almost all stores and online services which makes it easier to manage finances better.
Life can be difficult away from home, but it just means growing up and having new experiences.
Just like the quote which goes, “Die with memories, not dreams.” This is a place where people come from all over the world to make their careers and build a life for themselves, and we are a few of those people.

With the architecture of Glasgow city centre as the research objective, representative buildings of different periods and regional characteristics of Glasgow are selected to demonstrate the diverse and inclusive cultural environment of Glasgow. Through the pop art method of collage, actual pictures are combined with hand-painted elements to create such postcards. In addition, clicking on the icon on the digital postcard will link you to the encyclopedia of the corresponding building, allowing users to increase their knowledge of the local area.

This place is the place we visited most often in the past semester. The most representative ones are the two studios.

The tables and chairs here do not have a rigid layout like traditional classrooms and can be changed with the content of the class. At the same time, there are some auxiliary tools in the classroom, such as post-it notes, coloured pens, scissors, etc. Give people the opportunity to turn inspiration into reality. In addition, those power strips that drop from the sky are like ties floating in the air, bringing people from different tables together.

Besides, here one can meet people from many different cultural backgrounds. Communicate in two studios full of free atmosphere, and then produce a series of collisions and sparks in thinking.

All in all, this place will become more meaningful as everyone gathers here.

Waste Busters is a second-hand market in Forres, for which we have made an interactive postcard. We designed the postcard around the concept of time travelling. During our research, we found that most of the things sold in the second-hand market are very old and not produced today. Therefore, entering the market is like travelling back in time and people will find many surprises in it, including items that are well-designed but cannot be seen outside.

Originally, The Royal was a Hotel and the Beatles stayed there for a while. It was first called the Station hotel, because it was directly opposite the Train Station.  Then it had a change of name and an extension. The finally it became a refuge for the homeless and now it's the GSA Halls for students in Forres.

We intend to use the origami technique to design the postcard, which will appear as a small three-dimensional house when the person opens it. This will give a better visualization of the construction of the house!
