Could a small scale densification strategy for the peri-urban zone,
using modular construction, and existing infrastructure on empty plots
of land, offer a competing alternative, not only to the sprawl of single
family dwellings but also to large housing projects, so called smart
city developments? This publication is an interim report on the current
status of a practice-based research project and supplemented by
contributions addressing the topics of densification, peri-urbanity, the
commons and many more. Research and publication by KOEN/ Institute of
Construction and Design Principles/ TU-Graz in cooperation with the
ITE/Institute of Structural Design/TU-Graz and the University of Applied
Siences Potsdam, with further contributions by Sophie Wolfrum, Marianne
Skjulhaug, Elke Pahl-Weber, Matthew Griffin, Mathieu Wellner, Aglaée
Degros, Francesco Ciari and Sanela Pansinger.
