DnD Landschaftsplanung: The project impresses due to the design and the zoning of the public space. There is a spacious public square zone centrally located. The place is separated by a meandering concrete band. The separated and partly planted semi-public areas are spatially associated with the houses and their entrances. The green zones with trees are kept small to generate a reminiscence of the formerly situated common village meadow there. With the element of the meandering concrete band, all constructional questions are answered: it captures height differences, separates public from semi-public zones and intentionally differentiated surfaces and shapes a seating furniture in the end.
