What you can’t see so well from the roof of the Technical University in the middle of Munich: the outskirts of the city. But there lies the “treasure” that two professors at the TU want to dig up. All the single family houses. In Munich and everywhere in Germany. Because of almost 20 million residential buildings, 16 million are single-family houses (EFH) and semi-detached houses (DHH). Thomas Auer is professor for building technology and climate-friendly construction, Andreas Hild is professor for design, conversion and monument preservation. Both believe that the ecologically unloved, architecturally often even despised home not only represents the living reality in Germany, but also harbors enormous potential.
