The mentioned developments are most clearly visible in an area which acts more and more without architects: the design of
single family houses. Asked by the internet portal www.etect.com a
provider of housing designs, we have dealt with this approach and developed the Style House.
Focused on three market segments we have created a "design-matrix" with houses in three sizes and three designs.
Related to this topic is also our study "Serve City – Interactive Urbanism" (developed at the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation). This study has been published as book at the Jovis Verlag, edited by Regina Sonnabend.
We took one specific user-profile here - the knowledge workers - and
read their use of electronic medias and space as a role-model for the digital shift of the whole society. We developed new typologies as examples for the resulting shifts in our spatial praxis and living concepts,
especially in working and living.
The concept of user-profiles can also be transferred to typology of the row house - As we did for a client in Cologne. |
