Erika Heine believes that most projects in Hanover that deal with homelessness “miss the point and miss the people”. As architects and urban planners, we can work to change this. Through user-friendly spatial concepts whose programmatical interstices make it possible to overcome social murder. Through mixed housing models that aim for mutual integration instead of further marginalising people. By involving people without shelter in processes of planning, building, discussing, working – everyday life. No easy tasks; missing the desired result is certainly, more often than not, a harsh reality. But hopefully not simply because hardly anyone in our professional field seriously confront themselves with homelessness.
