Team point of view

The Multi Layered City consists of the three concept layers: NEW WORK, MOBILITY and CIRCULAR SYSTEMS as well as BLUE AND GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE. Space is created for new and future forms of work. Internal circulation systems ensure sustainable and local production of energy and food. Adaptation to climatic trends makes the district resilient. Together, the project creates a vibrant district that will remain liveable far into the future.

Jury point of view
The project "Multilayer City" creates with the arrangement of solitary courtyard houses of different size and density a permeable-spatial transition from the city centre in the northwest over the station forecourt to the neighbouring quarter in the southeast. The large blocks are rounded off into smaller quarters and public pocket parks are formed within them as well as city squares of different sizes between the quarters and a larger park centrally to the south.
