Modern folks want different forms of living – that’s the conclusion of a examine by the College of Cambridge. The examine was solely about professionals who labored overseas for some time and commuted backwards and forwards. However the outcomes will be simply transferred to Germany and in addition to different trendy life forms. “The housing market has been lacking out on the wants of many folks for a very long time,” says Tim Driedger, an architect in Frankfurt. “However buyers, development planners and politicians haven’t understood this or are turning a blind eye to it.”
In her examine, Sabina Maslova from the Middle for Housing and Planning Analysis interviewed 65 professionals between the ages of 24 and 52 from eleven European international locations – together with Germany – who had gone to Moscow or London for no less than six months for skilled causes. They’ve labored as entrepreneurs, consultants, analysts, editors, legal professionals, designers and language lecturers, amongst different issues. Half of them had been single, most had no kids, and many had been always commuting between a number of cities. What the respondents needed from housing: First, that it was cheap. Secondly, flexibility, for instance a rental contract solely from Monday to Thursday or from Friday to Sunday. Third: Appropriate tools and living surroundings, comparable to a standard room or a personal lavatory within the shared condo or cafes, health club and retailers close by.
