Thesis: Club of unseen monuments. Who has the right to live in the city and who does not? Housing should not be another investment product. Living does not end at the front door. Housing as a basic human right. The background of the project is the tight housing market situation in Germany and the long-standing and constant demand for subsidized and affordable housing. These deficits and the increase in rental prices in urban areas lead to gentrification and segregation of the city, which results in an enormous change in the inhabitants:inside structure. In order to prevent such a pushing out process from occurring further, new ways have to be created. Club of unseen monuments exemplarily maps new redensification potentials, in order to find a contribution to a social and public welfare oriented answer to the housing question with transformation and reinterpretation of previously unnoticed and different areas in Hanover.
