Open spaces in the neighborhood - user-related room qualities. Guidelines for the housing stock of the City of Aachen and gewoge Aachen
The focus of this study is the quality of open space uses in the neighborhood in the everyday life of the users. Previous experiences in dealing with open spaces in neighborhoods and the results of two case studies in the housing stock of the city of Aachen will form the basis for a transferable guideline to secure and develop user-related open space qualities in the living environment. The services included a standardized survey of residents, interviews with experts and key persons, a workshop, and the creation of a "guideline".
