A hybrid district

2024

Living an working

The starting point of the urban development plan is the decision to extend the spatial edge on Kahlebergstrasse to the planned development in the south of the property. By taking up and continuing this edge, the open block formed by the three historic commercial buildings on Bärensteiner Strasse with their extensions is completed. The area east of this edge in the direction of Schellhauerweg is to be used as a green space. Within the spatial edges resulting from the surroundings, the existing buildings are first theoretically expanded, then broken up to allow passageways through the district. In this way, point buildings are created that fit into the scale of the surroundings. As a unifying element, a surrounding body is placed over the existing buildings and the new buildings on the fifth floor.

Mixed District

The coexistence of commercial and a wide variety of housing forms makes a mixed district possible. The existing wing D, which divides the planned development into two courtyards, occupies a special position. On the ground floor, a restaurant and co-working space is proposed.
