HENTSCHELGÄRTEN, LEIPZIG-SÜD

In 2006, the Leipzig Housing Development Company (LWB) initiated an expert competition for the urban redevelopment of a residential area. Our designs, featuring over 38 houses, were awarded first prize.

Eight different house types form a cohesive settlement ensemble. While maintaining necessary efficiency, the floor plans are designed to allow flexibility in use and to connect the interiors generously with the outdoor space.

Although barely noticeable from the outside, each house has its own specific functional structures tailored to the needs of the individual buyer.

The overall development is characterized by a gradually emerging, cohesive urban structure. In May 2016, after 10 years of construction, the final house was completed and handed over to the buyer.
