REAR WINDOW
In recent years, the city of Basel has become far more attractive. Current prognoses are for an increase in population and for the number of those working in the city to increase to 220,000 by 2035. The large areas of transformation in the north and east of the city are the focus here. To increase density in the future, however, the existing building fabric in the neighbourhoods will also play an important role. The potential is estimated to be 3,000 additional people and 2,000 new jobs.

The assignment for the Master’s thesis is based on the potential to develop these three perimeter-block constructions. In response to current issues of building with existing fabric, various measures to increase density should be proposed. There are four possibilities to choose from: replacing the row of buildings (Gundeldingerstrasse), expanding the cooperative apartments (Gilgenbergerstrasse) and replacement buildings for the two interior courtyards (in the west). The use and expansion of the buildings to be designed will depend on the project. The goal of the thesis is to create highly differentiated projects of high urban-planning and architectural value that will contribute in an up-to-date way to the quality of living, working and open spaces in the Gundeldingen district.
