Abstract
Planners cannot set out today from a tabula rasasituation anymore. Environmental and sustainability issues have already formed public opinion firmly about a ‘greenbelt’ being necessary in our cities, a kind of fortification leading to intensive development in towns inside a clearly delimited area within the surrounding nature. Since building on the periphery is limited, and the existing built substance has a certain cultural, architectural or at least environmental value, upgrading of existing buildings gains more and more ground from the design of new buildings.
