Urban Mining Design in Practice

The new, double-gabled main building of the Korbach town hall replaces a fair-faced concrete structure from the 1970s.
For Korbach's town hall, the planning team implemented an Urban Mining concept that spans from reusing the concrete from the existing building to designing the new replacement building as a storehouse of reusable material. The Urban Mining Index was applied for the first time to evaluate circularity.
