The Ettersburg Dialogue of the Federal Foundation of Baukultur is an important source of inspiration for the construction and real estate industry and has been held annually at Ettersburg Castle near Weimar since 2009. It deals with fundamental issues relating to the future of high-quality planning and building. This year, the Simply Better Building strategy paper was adopted, in which a total of 15 theses regarding sustainable and efficient construction were addressed to the construction industry and politicians, including sustainability in all construction phases as well as digitalization, future orientation, climate policy and building culture. Eike Becker took part in discussions and presentations at this event to exchange experiences and shared exciting insights into this current cooperative housing project in his presentation on the TLW residential ensemble, providing inspiration on the topic of sustainable construction.
