Bauen und Wohnen in Gemeinschaft / Building and Living in Communities : Ideen, Prozesse, Architektur / Ideas, Processes, Architecture

New strategies for living in the future How and why are more and more people choosing to build and live in communities? What motivates them, and what different forms can this take? What contribution can architecture and building culture make in this context? This book shows 26 projects from Germany, Europe and further afield that offer answers to these questions and have been realised by collective custom build project initiatives or co-operative housing associations. Using different means and concepts, each of them responds to changing lifestyles and different locations. With the help of innovative planning and building processes, they develop solutions that address the specific needs and wishes of their residents. A central principle is the wish to live within one’s own four walls while being part of a community of neighbours and friends, sharing communal spaces and a sense of social commitment. As such, they present ways of combining modern lifestyles with classical principles. Additional essays provide in-depth information on selected aspects of community-oriented housing, ranging from the economic benefits for society as a whole to the specifics of land allocation procedures, social aspects and suitable legal forms. * Building and living together: examples ranging from Canada, several European countries all the way to Singapore * The book accompanying the exhibition at the German Architecture Museum in Frankfurt am Main, which will travel internationally Inhalt / Contents Gemeinschaftliches Bauen und Wohnen – eine Einführung / Building and Living in Communities – an Introduction Gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte – der soziale Aspekt / Community-oriented Housing Projects – the Social Aspect Neue Gemeinschaftsinitiativen und ihre Selfmade-Qualitäten / New Collectives and Their Self-made Qualities Mischen Possible, Berlin / Mischen Possible, Berlin.

How and why are more and more people choosing to build and live in communities - in housing with shared spaces? What motivates them, and what different forms can this take?

Welche Ausprgungen dieses Phnomens existieren und was knnen Architektur und Baukultur in diesem Zusammenhang leisten? Das Buch zeigt 26 in Deutschland und berwiegend im europischen Ausland realisierte Bauten, die als Baugruppenprojekte, von Genossenschaften oder Wohnungsbaugesellschaften errichtet wurden und Antwort auf diese Fragen geben. Sie reagieren mit unterschiedlichen Konzepten auf vernderte Lebensentwrfe und vielfltige Standorte. Mithilfe von innovativen Planungs- und Bauprozessen werden Lsungen entwickelt, die unmittelbar auf die Wnsche und Anforderungen der Bewohner ausgerichtet sind. Dabei steht die Idee im Zentrum, in individuellen Wohnungen und zugleich gemeinschaftlich unter einem Dach zu leben, Nachbarschaft und Freundschaft zu pflegen sowie Raum und soziale Verantwortung zu teilen. Klassische und moderne Lebensmodelle lassen sich somit verbinden. In vertiefenden Essays werden Hintergrundinformationen zum gemeinschaftlichen Bauen und Wohnen gegeben: vom volkswirtschaftlichen Nutzen dieser Wohnformen, ber Fragen der Grundstcksvergabe bis hin zu sozialen Anliegen und rechtlichem Reglungsbedarf.

Many cities have a strong increase in demand from families with children or for mixed and integrated living.00Projects designed for owner-occupation often offer ideal solutions, because owner occupants who are both investors and decision-makers set new standards for quality as well as cost savings. At the same time, this phenomenon is also increasing on an international level. Several private developers plan residential property for their own use and join forces in a joint building venture or assembly.00The book knowledgeably addresses the many aspects of joint building and living: from the economic use of these forms of housing to issues of land allocation, social concerns, and legal situations. Some 25 projects with different programs and dimensions provide ideal benchmarks or even blueprints for new developments Housing construction is one of the most fundamental tasks of architecture and urbanism.
