68 subsidised flats, 1 “Baugruppe” with 44 flats, commercial units, kindergarten and SOS Children’s Village
The innovation of integrating a Baugruppe into a subsidised housing complex generates synergies that enrich and reinforce both sides. Public facilities such as a kindergarten, the SOS Children's Village, gastronomy and co-working on the ground floor radiate into the neighbourhood and create an open urban centre. They form a threshold between building and neighbourhood — one that gives the community a distinct identity. Different flat types meet the housing needs of diverse generations and households and promote social diversity. Vertically greened, south-facing access galleries, a green roof, and fresh air channels work together to improve the microclimate and mitigate overheating.
