Wie wollen wir wohnen? Wohnformen und Familie, Gestern und Morgen

How we live together is changing - and our homes are changing with us.

The Bundesstiftung Bauakademie and the Humboldt Forum are taking a joint look at housing in the past and the future: what did family life look like in the past and how did it shape the way we live? From collective work on the farm and in the house to the separation of work and private life during industrialization and the home office today - housing is always an expression of social change.

Patchwork families and families of choice, communal living, shared flats for senior citizens or the nuclear family with 1.35 children: family lifestyles are diverse, change over the course of a lifetime - and constantly place new demands on living space.

Architect and urban researcher Saskia Ebert explores innovative housing projects that offer affordable and sustainable solutions to these challenges. From a sociological perspective, Christine Hannemann shows how ideas of family and the design of the housing market have changed over time and how this affects our coexistence. How is housing distributed, who has access to it? What role do rising rents, housing shortages or new housing models play? And how do families without their own home live?

In a panel discussion, they will explore these topics and show how closely ideas of family and forms of housing are linked.

An evening about what shapes the way we live together - and about how we want to live in the future.
