Building in existing contexts
Utilising existing infrastructure and preserving cultural heritage.
Remodelling, adapting, reusing - these are the keywords of this pillar. Building in and around existing buildings is becoming increasingly relevant, not least due to aspects of sustainability; it preserves and increases the value of existing buildings. Conversion harbours architectural and ecological potential while at the same time appreciating the architectural heritage of past eras. The aim is not only to safeguard the heritage, but also to continuously develop it. The measures range from individual buildings and infrastructure to entire urban structures.
