Info
Precondition for the development of this urban concept was the examination of the site in its urban context - especially with the realized but above all, with the future developments to be implemented from the survey map "Am Quellenbusch". Already realized and future buildings, green open spaces and the river Düssel are the conditions to be considered for the development of an urban structure. A series of design parameters have been called out that will define the project’s objectives and properties:
- Urban integration
- Orientation of the building, both in the urban context, as well as on the site
- Mass, density, size of the buildings and the added values of the open spaces
- Identity
- Economy, ecology and sustainability
With today and tomorrow‘s context different urban approaches have been investigated and compared to each other. On the background of the above-mentioned design parameters a final concept has been developed, corresponding in all regards to the requirements earlier mentioned.
