Outdoor Pool Area Fellbach

Against the backdrop of the current housing shortage in Fellbach, the contiguous properties including the former municipal indoor and outdoor swimming pools and the Kühegärten/Apfelweg area is being developed for housing. The aim is to create a small-scale mix of residential options for different phases of life and various income groups. The aim of the competition was to transfer these forms of housing into an overall urban structure that establishes references to the surrounding buildings and landscape.
The design envisages three compact residential courtyards grouped around a central town square. The trees around the former open-air swimming pool become the surrounding green belt and one element in a landscape network; all development occurs with no interference from or of the surrounding road network. At its southwest flank, the park forms the entrance to the city. To the north, Lindenallee becomes a park promenade uniting the square in front of the old wine press, a future building area and the landscape to the west.
