Summary:
"A profound social change can be observed in the areas of mobility, work, and trade, as well as in the practice of faith, especially in cities. As a result, certain building typologies such as petrol stations, offices, shopping centers, cinemas, and churches are being used less, thus becoming increasingly obsolete and contributing to the obsolescence of the city. Three strategies must be considered for the efficient transformation of these structures: the conversion of existing architecture and the preservation of the gray energy they embody; the maximization of land use; and the strengthening of ecological functions to improve the urban microclimate and the quality of living space. The authors analyze potential solutions, present conversion scenarios, and illustrate these in schematic diagrams. Analysis of obsolete architectural typologies in urban centers Realistic proposals for the recyclability of existing buildings Attractive graphics and presentations of potential solutions"-- De Gruyter Brill
In den Bereichen Mobilität, Arbeit und Handel, aber auch bei der Glaubensausübung ist, vor allem in Städten, ein tiefgreifender gesellschaftlicher Wandel zu beobachten. Das hat zur Folge, dass Gebäude bestimmter Typologien wie Tankstellen, Büros, Einkaufszentren, Kinos und Kirchen immer weniger genutzt und somit zunehmend obsolet werden und zur Veralterung der Stadt beitragen. Bei der effizienten Transformation dieser Strukturen sind drei Strategien zu berücksichtigen: die Umnutzung bestehender Architekturen und die Bewahrung grauer Energien in ihnen, die Maximierung der Flächennutzung sowie die Stärkung ökologischer Funktionen zur Verbesserung des städtischen Mikroklimas und der Lebensraumqualität. Die Autorinnen analysieren Potenziale, präsentieren Umwandlungsszenarien und stellen sie in schematischen Grafiken dar. Analyse obsoleter Typologien in urbanen Zentren Realistische Vorschläge zur Recyclierbarkeit vorhandener Bausubstanz Attraktive Grafiken und Präsentationen potenzieller Lösungen
