In June 2024, Molly led a five-day street transformation in Weil der Stadt, near Stuttgart, as a community project.
Day one involved workshops with 100 students, exploring how natural and urban landscapes intertwine. Their collage motifs informed floor and wall paintings.
The project rethought mobility, extending painted shapes onto pavements to signal shared space for cars, bikes and pedestrians. Architects built interactive seating with natural materials, and a sculptor added a temporary installation to prompt new ways of engaging with the environment.
The result was a vibrant route from street to station, with playful murals guiding visitors and inviting the community to use the space differently.

“It’s incredibly inspiring to work on international projects and to become part of a new community, even if only for a short time.”
