This project is a sustainable campus extension for the Christian-Albrechts-University (CAU) of Kiel. Aiming to conceptualize a future-oriented “Green Campus” that includes a urban development concept and open space plan for the ‘Vision Area’ of the university quarter. The Bremerskamp Campus has been selected for the location and it is to be turned into a lively, environmental-friendly and sustainable district with its own identity, while at the same time being intertwined into the urban fabric, thus respecting various concepts of sustainability like mobility and commerce.
Some of the parameters include: Land-use (space and function), Traffic, Green Space, Socio-culural, Economical, and Legal aspects. Others include Water management, Material and Resource management, Energy concepts and waste management Ever changing conditions at CAU; such as increasing enrolment and new emerging research areas require additional space and capacities. Another important aspect is the allocation of temporary facilities that can be used while existing and decaying buildings undergo refurbishment.
The image on the right is a representation of the multi-layered development that fosters a sustainable development. These are the social layer, the economic layer and the ecological layer.
