Lecture description

Most of Germany’s over 16 million single-family homes are underused and require modernisation. At TUM, researchers in urban design, building conversion and heritage conservation, timber construction, and climate-responsive building design are collaborating with the construction industry to develop strategies at multiple scales for diversifying ageing single-family housing areas and enabling a wider range of housing and uses, unlocking the potential of existing single-family homes and exploring how these insights can be transferred to other building types and neighbourhoods.
