CHILDREN AND CONCRETE
The repurposing of churches for secular use is no longer rare. According to the German Bishop's Conference since the beginning of the 20th century, 366 Catholic churches in Germany have been desecerated and reassigned uses. This trend has led to many competitions and exhibitions to accommodate these new uses.

Ideation for the Monastery Garden Residential Facility in Tholey
Located on the grounds of the former convent in Tholey, this two story building will provide a home to severely ill children and young people as a "short term residence with integrated hospice". It was important that the design exude comfort while integrating with the surrounding landscape. This latter goal was helped by the inclusion of a greenroof. The building should further merge with the adjacent monastery garden, which itself belongs to the Tholey Benedictine Abbey. At the center of the ground level is a community room with access to the terrace. Administration is located here, as is the care area, complete with sound room and the like. On the lower level, the are rooms for up to twelve young guests and two parent rooms. Two of these patient rooms share a handicapped accessible bathroom. In the middle of this lower level is the supply room and the nurses' quarters.

Publication in the "Deutscher Architekturverlag"
Urbanity is the specific culture that describes the urban habitat of people. This urbanity has much to do with the manner a city is built, structured and connected. The environment in which residents stay and move plays one of the most important roles.
This issue shows projects with distinct sociospatial stuctures that do not create social distances between communities, promoting intercultural identity and connectedness instead. Life in the country is becoming for many people increasingly unattractive. For all ages and classes there are different reasons to move to the city.
Forward thinking architecture needs to take into account the attraction of urban living and transfer modern living into this situation. In this selection of designs, the issues of space reevaluation and densification have been addressed in a variety of ways.

Planning is progressing on Franzenbrunnen
Eleven houses have been completed by FLOSUNDK at Franzenbrunnen up to now.
Our building cooperative is complete with ten parties and an external rowhouse is being planned.
The Franzenbrunnen building cooperative should be similar to the project Bellevue 2.0: uniform on the exterior and unique on the interior. Offset rooftop terraces offer views to the green and ensure necessary privacy. A uniform brick facade reflects the unity of the group but the nuanced color alterations on the facade read the individuality of the interiors.
