Set Houses with One Pillar / Buero Wagner
The two houses are located on Lake Starnberg in the foothills of the Alps, approximately. 20 km from Munich in Söcking. The residential area on the outskirts of Starnberg was developed in the 1950s. The buildings there are often still in their original condition, but, like many buildings from this period, they are of low quality. Their plots are generously sized at around 1000 m2 each. With Vision Starnberg 2025, an integrated urban development concept (ISEK), the intention was to restructure this neighborhood, which proposed, among other things, densification within the plots. The concept was not followed up on in 2021 for capacity reasons. Nevertheless, the procedure - an inner-local redensification - was implemented in the new buildings. Two houses were built on a plot with an existing dwelling. This created more space without developing and sealing new areas. After an initial investigation into the continued use of the existing building, it was decided to demolish the existing building and make space for two new buildings due to the poor material quality of the structure and the unfavorable central position of the building on the site. The material from the demolition was separated on site, shredded, and processed into recycled material.
