Situation
We propose a new comprehensive methodology for assessing, preserving and transforming the built environment. It is value-driven and integrates elements of participation in every stage of its development using and adapting the cultural probes technique. It will be explored in field trials in cooperation with local authorities in the Canton Fribourg, it will be introduced into the Curriculum “Architecture” at Bern University of Applied Sciences, and it will be incorporated into of a new SIA-Norm.
