Thesis project
Karlsruhe, Germany
2017
The design of this project is based on the observation that increasing urban growth is incoherent to the necessary utilization of its space. The tangibility and communicability of the built space has already been digitized due to economic interests for the living space. Paradoxically, these are often just economic reasons that produce a calculated vacancy. This is in conflict with the increasing demand for usable space and a lively, liveable and compact urban structure.
Based on the research, empirical studies and experiments in scale 1:1 have been made.
