Motivated by the need to investigate innovative housing emerging in Europe as a new field of work for planners, we are particularly interested in self-organized pioneering projects.

People in pioneering housing initiatives respond to difficult housing markets (both in booming cities and in shrinking regions) and create (new) types of ownership and sharing economy. They try to achieve standards of sustainability for climate change mitigation. They develop new living spaces in order to accommodate different phase of life and new, increasingly varying lifestyles... [mehr lesen]
