Our living space is subject to permanent flux, with far reaching changes in the areas of mobility, the environment, demography, energy, and not least the climate, which increasingly require new strategies and concepts with regard to spatial planning and the transformation of our urban landscapes. This publication presents viable, innovative, and holistic approaches and solutions for the development of such landscape transformations, put forward by six renowned universities as part of the international, interdisciplinary doctoral college "Spatial Research Lab". The range of subjects comprises spatial planning, urban development, and district planning, as well as new usage and building development typologies and the role of infrastructures in design processes. Scientific experiments show the impact of actions and decisions on the transformation of urban landscapes.
