Description
Bilingual edition (English/German) / Zweisprachige Ausgabe (deutsch/englisch)
Cost pressure, changing living conditions, growing demands for the reuse of building materials--with their Ausbauh user, the Berlin-based architectural studio Praeger Richter has provided a much-noticed answer to the challenges currently facing housing construction.
This volume describes the implemented ideas that transform buildings into independent housing projects and long-term user-friendly, adaptable homes, using nine Ausbauhaus principles. Through the examples of four residential projects--the Ausbauhaus Neuk lln, the Solid Timber Houses Neuruppin, the Tobacco Factory Dresden, and the recently completed Ausbauhaus S dkreuz in Berlin--the book questions existing building standards and examines the principles of individual framing, DIY fit-out, urban context, and ecological interior construction.
