Der Eckhausgrundriss: Stadthäuser

Die Grundlagenforschung Der Eckhausgrundriss des Deutschen Instituts für Stadtbaukunst systematisiert Grundrissbeispiele aus den letzten 200 Jahren und erläutert anhand unterschiedlicher Wohnungsgrundrisse die Prinzipien für den Umgang mit dem städtischen Eckhaus. Sie dient als Hilfestellung für den architektonischen Eckhaus-Entwurf als einem wesentlichen Baustein des urbanen Blocks und verdeutlicht den Zusammenhang zwischen der Morphologie der Stadt und des Hauses. Die Herausgeber legen dar: Klar gefasste Stadträume in offener oder geschlossener Bauweise benötigen den Entwurf von Eckhäusern mit guten Grundrissen, da diese entscheidend zur Qualität der daran angrenzenden Stra en und Platzräume beitragen.

Diese dritte Auflage des Bandes erweitert die bestehende Sammlung an Eckgrundrissen um Beispiele, die von 29 Architekt*innen in den vergangenen Jahren realisiert wurden, sowie um Klassiker des Eckgrundrisses, und verdeutlicht damit auch die wiedergewonnene Relevanz dieses Typus in der gegenwärtigen Praxis.

The foundational research work Der Eckhausgrundriss by the
Deutsches Institut für Stadtbaukunst categorizes examples of corner
building layouts from the past 200 years. With the help of these varied
floor plans, it explains the principles to bear in mind when designing
urban corner buildings. As such, it serves as an architectural aid in
the design of corner buildings--an essential element of urban blocks--as
well as clarifying the relationship between these buildings and the
morphology of the city. The editors demonstrate that thoughtfully
planned corner buildings, whether free-standing or attached, are
required for the design of clearly defined urban spaces, as they have
decisive impact on the spatial quality of the adjoining streets and
squares.

The third edition of this volume expands the collection
of corner building floor plans with examples realized by twenty-nine
architects in recent years, as well as a number of classic corner
building layouts. In doing so, it further showcases the renewed
importance of this type of building in contemporary architectural
practice.
