- minimal visibility into private outdoor areas such as gardens and roof gardens
Difference between point house, long house and row house?
Layout:
Point House: Compact, standalone.
Long House: Elongated structure, historically communal or for specific purposes.
Row House: Repeated units forming a continuous row, sharing walls.

Point House: Suitable for single-family living with space around.
Long House: Historically communal; modern versions are more linear single-family homes.
Row House: Dense urban housing for efficient land use.

A mental change in the housing and real estate market is needed urgently: What is the problem?

How will we live, work and play in 20 years? What are the key megatrends that influence urban development? (5)
- Demographic changes (increasing average age of population, migration flows)
- Individualisation and flexibility (pluralistic lifestyles (vielfältiger Lebensstil) and household forms, increased demand for self-determination, more divorced and single people, smaller families)
- Connectivity (efficient means of communication facilitate the exchange of information between people.
- Automation of work processes (more free time)
- Big data (countless traces of human behavior, can be used to forecast and optimize passersby streams)
What does social change of values mean?
- change in living culture not only technology
- loosening of traditional moral concepts
- scarcity of space
- = variety of new forms of living is emerging

How many Swiss employees work in offices?
What is the average office space per employee in Europe/ Switzerland?
How many total gross floor office space do we have in CH?
How many vacant office space in CH?
turnover in Swiss construction?
- 2/3 Swiss employees work in offices
- 12.4 m2 in Europe / 15m2 in CH
- 52 million m2 gross floor office
- 3% vacant (2016)
- turnover: CHF 18 - 19 billion a year (55% goes into construction of buildings)
Compactness vs. solar gain: Minergie vs. Passiv-Solar
- courtyard types (Innenhof) max favor alternative to Minergie-P buildings -> preferably Minergie-A
- Compact buildings with low room depts = good use of daylight
- basically, the current building codes and Minergie today still promote a compact construction
- the importance of lighting energy also shows that overly compact buildings are increasingly inefficient overall
- Consequently it is possible to realize a building with a comparatively poorly insulated building shell, yet still achieving a very low primary energy requirement thanks to efficient building technology
