01109 Dresden: Hellerau is considered one of the early examples of modernism. With a spirit of experimentation, it brought together the various life-reforming currents of the spirit of optimism of the early 20th century. Hellerau is considered the "nursery" of the Werkbund and is a manifestation of its ideas. Completion: 1955
64287 Darmstadt: On the Mathildenhöhe in Darmstadt, a unique architectural ensemble consisting of buildings, landscaped gardens with sculptures, interior architecture and design was created within 16 years. Darmstadt developed into a center of Art Nouveau through the artists' colony on the Mathildenhöhe. It was founded by the Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig and the publisher Alexander Koch. During the time of its existence, 23 artists belonged to it. The work of these members and other important personalities in Darmstadt from 1898 to 1914 set the tone for subsequent developments in art and architecture far beyond the events on Mathildenhöhe. Art Nouveau, with its ornamentation and organic building forms, continues to have an influence on the design of ecological settlements or sustainable neighbourhoods to this day. Construction from 1899. Completion: 1914
21107 Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg: The former flak bunker in Wilhelmsburg has become a symbol of the climate protection concept Renewable Wilhelmsburg. The monument, which has been virtually unused since the end of the war, was refurbished as part of the IBA Hamburg and converted into a renewable power plant with large-scale heat storage. The energy storage facility has a volume of 2,000 cubic metres, which corresponds to 2,000,000 litres. It supplies the 120-hectare Reiherstieg district with climate-friendly heat and feeds renewable electricity into the Hamburg distribution grid.
12627 Berlin: (not realized). 33 architectural firms from Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland, among others, presented the design of WerkBundStadt Berlin. The plan was to build 1,100 new apartments in 38 buildings on 2.8 hectares of land. A critique of it in the deutsche bauzeitung (db) recalls the historical heritage in which the project stands: "It is laudable that the Deutscher Werkbund is speaking out with a contribution. After all, it is precisely the Werkbund housing estates from Stuttgart to Breslau, Prague, Vienna and Zurich that stand for the experimental living worlds of modernism.
SE - 211 17 Malmö: Ab 2001 entstand auf einer etwa 175 Hektar großen Industriebrache der neue Stadtteil Västra Hamnen (Westhafen) , der etwa 10–12.000 Einwohner beherbergen soll. Er wurde als Bauausstellung mit ambitionierten Nachhaltigkeitszielen realisiert. Eine Reihenhauszeile wurde als "Europasiedlung"gebaut. Fertigstellung: 2005
10963 Berlin-Kreuzberg: "International Building Exhibition", 106 units, completed in 1987 / optimisation and redesign in 2006, grey water recycling plant for 250 tenants, saving 3 million litres of fresh water per year.
21109 Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg: The International Building Exhibition IBA Hamburg is one of the largest urban development projects in Europe. To date, 70 projects have been realised as part of IBA Hamburg. In 2013, IBA Hamburg had a total of 1,733 apartments under construction or completed, 516 of which were modernizations. Added to this are over 100,000 square metres of commercial space, eight educational facilities, two senior citizens' residential homes, three daycare centres, four sports facilities, a commercial courtyard, a centre for artists and creative people, the extension of the Aßmann Canal and over 70 hectares of green space.
22045 Hamburg-JenfeldHAMBURG WATER Cycle®, an urban quarter with 835 residential units, 630 of them in new buildings, and commercial space for around 2000 residents is being built on 35 ha of the former Lettow-Vorbeck barracks. Project costs: approx. 250 million euros. The most far-reaching project of a decentralised water supply and disposal system currently in Europe: vacuum toilets, biogas production and waste water separation (HAMBURG WATER Cycle®). The biogas produced will be used to generate heat and electricity for the new district in a climate-neutral manner in the district's own combined heat and power plant. The project will thus enable climate-neutral living and sustainable drainage.
23569 Lübeck-Kücknitz: 36 social housing units in 3 buildings in low-energy and timber construction with a total living space of 2,213 m². Pilot project as part of the "Resource-saving construction" programme funded by the state of Schleswig-Holstein. The main premise in the implementation of this pilot project was the synthesis of healthy living, energy and cost-saving construction with child and family-friendly floor plans. Completion: 1998
23881 MöllnThe project: 26 low-energy houses in timber frame construction with plots of approx. 230 - 410 square metres have been built on a construction area of approx. 8,000 square metres in the Doktorhof area of Mölln. The aim was to save costs and space with the help of the "Quadro-Haus" concept. The estate was built with the support of the state subsidy programme "Resource-saving construction". Completion: ~1999
31595 Steyerberg: the Lebensgarten Steyerberg e. V. is a settlement community with 62 terraced houses, which was founded in 1984 and which is characterized by the spiritual Findhorn Community in Scotland. The settlement community is united by the desire to live in harmony with each other and with the surrounding nature. Not far from Hanover, it was an Expo 2000 project.
44649 Herne: This is not a housing estate, but the concept could equally be applied to housing. The Naturhuset apartment house by Bengt Warne in Stockholm was one of the first pioneering buildings to implement the house-in-house principle with a shell of glass. Also the Student dormitory ESA in Kaiserslautern is built like this. The project in Herne, however, is the most spectacular of its kind in this form.
Planned in partnership by the German architectural firm HHS Planer & Architekten AG and the French architectural firm Jourda & Perraudin (Francoise Helene Jourda and Gilles Perraudin), the building is enclosed in a glass climate shell that creates a Mediterranean climate similar to that in Nice. This is on average 5 °C warmer than the outside temperature. Water features, earth channels and large gates prevent overheating in summer. The solar system in the roof, was the largest building-integrated system of its kind at the time. The supports inside are made of 56 spruce trunks. Completion: 1999
52072 Aachen-Laurensberg: "Solarsiedlung Teichstraße", 43 residential buildings in 27 terraced houses and 16 semi-detached houses, as well as two office buildings in passive house standard, on 2.5 hectares of land; partly wood pellet heating, 60 % coverage via solar thermal collectors, PV system or geothermal system. Completion: 2003
59075 Hamm: The realisation competition for "Das Gesunde Haus" in the city of Hamm was won by a North Rhine-Westphalian-Danish architectural consortium. The city of Hamm provided an approx. 9,500 m2 plot of land on Hohenhöveler Straße in Bockum-Hövel for the realisation of the winning design.
