2 Baukultur What do we mean? A little history What are we doing?

3 Baukultur What do we mean? Baukultur aims at good planning and building. It combines a high design standard with a holistic view of social, economic, and environmental aspects, and thus has an emotional and aesthetic dimension. Baukultur is essential to produce an environment that is perceived as liveable. It serves to secure and develop the social and economic values thus created. Producing Baukultur is a social process based on a broad understanding of qualitative values and goals and their implementation with high levels of interdisciplinary expertise. Baukultur is the positive result of a good process culture.

4 Baukultur What do we mean? In short: Baukultur describes the process of developing the built environment and our approach to it.
