How can one re-think urban planning to meet the changing requirements of today's society and create healthier, happier and more efficient urban districts in the future? The Good Urban Village was created in response to this question with an interdisciplinary team and through a collaborative learning process - a robust blueprint which is now being implemented in conjunction with a housing association in Berlin in the form of Urbany.
Large cities with their rapid population growth urgently need affordable housing. Through the simultaneous lack of developable inner-city space, apartments inevitably have to become smaller in order to remain affordable. How can smaller living spaces offer that something extra in terms of quality of life? GoodHood provides the answers.
Life on the banks of a metropolis: spectacular, sophisticated condominiums are being built here, nestled within a new district that guarantees carefree enjoyment of life, built in an irresistible waterfront location with breathtaking architecture that embodies the class and elegance of this lifestyle. That is RIVA LIVING.
Urgently needed living space through the renovation and development of single-themed local amenities: with a value-added housing offer based on neighbourly coexistence, vibrant, networked city districts for all stages of life and income groups are being created throughout Germany.
For us, neighbourhood diversity means consciously creating spaces for the most diverse needs of our residents! In this way, we strengthen social interaction and also increase the happiness of every individual a little!
