DOESN’T LOOK THAT HIGH AT ALL!
– The high-rise family is growing together.
Height concentration in the middle of the property, away from the neighbours, without burdening the Bahnstraße. At Nordberg-/Althanstraße, a sequence of heights that communicate with the existing stock.

The city within the city opens up dynamic and exciting spaces and offers a high attractiveness of the open space underneath in spite of the overbuilding.

Right picture: Spatial structure – iterative urban planning. The spatial structure reflects the interests of the task.
It is essentially reactive.
Further arguments or their changed weighting flow into the planning/optimisation process: increased / decreased / higher / lower … adapted to specific uses….
