Model solution for multi-family housing in centers of contemporary metropolises
"Idea of the Little Hamburg Hybrid Housing was to create a unique space in which different typologies of living can be combined into the one place. The community exterior rooftop is a solution how to build a relationship between the people. For all this people the building needs to be a small city and an essence of necessary facilities."
The site for this project is located in St. Pauli District. Traditionally residential, since mid-19th century St. Pauli has been the home of pilots, port workers and their families. Historically the poorest district in the city, it has recently experienced strong changes in population. The gentrification that has happened in the last decades has seen a great reduction of immigrant population and a strong displacement of low-income population. The plot was until very recently occupied by the housing complex Esso-Häuser, which was build in 1958.
This building was presented as a "\Future project from Spielbudenplatz\".
Now after years of continuous dilapidation this place must return to magnificence." This project was answer for an empty plot in the city center of Hamburg. Which is located in very specific place nearly Spielbudenplatz – second important public space in the city. The second reason was to made a new proposition for a building which can be a hybrid like the last one. After the potential analysis of this plot, the project design was developed to find a solution for contemporary city center. How can we define a functional model? How can we increase density in the city centre? Existing trends and related problems of insufficient amount of housing in expanding metropolis in the world is determined to make researches of new housing model in architecture. This project Little Hamburg Hybrid Housing responds for UNFPA presented results which show that at this moment more than 50% of the population is living in cities, and by 2030 this ratio will exceed 80%.
