The Studentendorf Adlershof is a building complex for student accommodation in Berlin which was inaugurated in 2014.
The Studentendorf Adlershof is located in the south-east of Berlin, in Adlershof in the district of Treptow-Köpenick. The complex is close to the Campus Adlershof of the Humboldt University with its scientific institutes as well as to the WISTA. It was opened on 21 October 2014. The Studentendorf Adlershof is part of the efforts to establish residential living in Adlershof next to the existing Scientific Park. [1]
On an 11,000 sqm area, ten buildings as well as a garden designed by Locodrom form the Studentendorf Adlershof. In total 288 students live in the eight three-story buildings. On each floor, 13 residents share a communal area with kitchen, dining room and lounge area. The individual rooms for the residents have en-suite bathrooms and are arranged around the living space. The two four-storey buildings along the Abram-Joffe-Street offer single and double apartments. In total 386 students can live at Studentendorf Adlershof.
The architecture of the Studentendorf Adlershof is dominated by the so-called thinker-bays (Denker-Erker), which characterise each residential unit. The Denker-Erker is simultaneously a place of retreat as well as a viewpoint. Through the different orientation of the Denker-Erker, the orientation of the windows, the shades of grey of the wood panel and the coloured sunshades the pre-fabricated facade is softened. These variations make each building unique.
The model for the residential and architectural concept is Germany's unique and heritage listed Studentendorf Schlachtensee in Berlin's south-west. This can be seen especially with regard to the urban character as a student village and for the community-oriented residential buildings.
As in Schlachtensee, all communal buildings are located around a village square. At the village square the club, the rental office, the kindergarten, the gym as well as the laundrette are located. [2]
Two additional courtyards complete the landscape concept. The courtyards are play and adventure areas for the residents and are designed so that communication is possible even between the houses through the large windows in the living landscapes (living rooms).
The Berlin-based architectural office die Zusammenarbeiter were responsible for the design. The starting point was in October 2010 when the project won the tender for the development of the area under the urban development project "Wohnen am Campus".
Financing partner for the Studentendorf Adlershof was the Swiss CoOpera Sammelstiftung PUK. The residential complex is administrated by the cooperative Studentendorf Schlachtensee eG.

Shikumen is a traditional Shanghainese architectural style combining Western and Chinese elements that first appeared in the 1860s. At the height of their popularity, there were 9000 shikumen-style buildings in Shanghai, comprising 60% of the total housing stock of the city, but today the proportion is much lower as most Shanghainese live in large apartment buildings. Shikumen is classified as one type of lilong residences, sometimes translated as "lane houses" in English.
The Memorial Quadrangle is a residential quadrangle at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. Commissioned in 1917 to supply much-needed student housing for Yale College, it was Yale's first Collegiate Gothic building and its first project by James Gamble Rogers, who later designed ten other major buildings for the university.

A retirement home – sometimes called an old people's home or old age home, although old people's home can also refer to a nursing home – is a multi-residence housing facility intended for the elderly. Typically, each person or couple in the home has an apartment-style room or suite of rooms. Additional facilities are provided within the building. This can include facilities for meals, gatherings, recreation activities, and some form of health or hospital care. A place in a retirement home can be paid for on a rental basis, like an apartment, or can be bought in perpetuity on the same basis as a condominium.

A garden square is a type of communal garden in an urban area wholly or substantially surrounded by buildings; commonly, it continues to be applied to public and private parks formed after such a garden becomes accessible to the public at large. The archetypal garden square is surrounded by tall terraced houses and other types of townhouse. Because it is designed for the amenity of surrounding residents, it is subtly distinguished from a town square designed to be a public gathering place: due to its inherent private history, it may have a pattern of dedicated footpaths and tends to have considerably more plants than hard surfaces or large monuments.
