“How to Cool Down Dense Urban Environments? A Discussion on Site-Specific Urban Mitigating Strategies”

Abstract. New media and modern building automation have a strong impact on contemporary architecture. So far one could regard built architecture as static. These new technologies introduce a dynamic impulse to architecture. The objective of our research and teaching work is to demonstrate the impact of innovative systems on architecture in daily usage while providing […]

Articulated landscapes: Sustainable future cities between architecture and landscape

“From Systems to Patterns and Back – Exploring the spatial potential of dynamic patterns in the area of regional planning”

Abstract In a time shaped by technological developments dissolving the boundaries between the real and the virtual world, we are challenged to newly define the potentials of virtual and mixed reality in the field of landscape architecture. Critical analyses of the primary application areas of these technologies show that the current focus mostly lies on […]
