"Nahbarer Fremdkörper" // W&W CAMPUS - 03.11.2020

Published today in db Deutsche Bauzeitung; editor Achim Geissinger deals with the topic periphery and makes witty remarks regarding the following questions: What is the purpose of an explicitly metropolitan structure on the outskirts of a medium-sized center? Is it the harbinger of final urban sprawl? How does the headquarters of an insurance company correspond with Swabian orchards? Wouldn't it have been desirable to achieve even greater densification - and perhaps better to do this in a completely different location?

Great article. Read yourself:
