Reden wir ber Baukultur!

As a collective cultural achievement, building culture is not a private matter: it is a physical expression of our society. It defines not only the character of our living environment, but also the processes of its creation, adoption, use, and preservation. Our building culture is tightly interwoven with peoples daily lives and influences their coexistence and wellbeing. The question of how we wish to shape this coexistence is relevant not only to those in the fields of architecture and urban planning, but also to large sections of wider society. To mark its twentieth anniversary, IG Architektur is turning its attention to the future. In this volume, it seeks to identify and discuss the topics that will be important to building culture over the coming twenty years. With contributions by Wojciech Czaja, Jens S.
