However, the project team and the City of Zurich are reviewing all submitted ideas once again to identify potential synergies with other projects. Perhaps your idea could be implemented even without additional support? Please consider whether you would like to pursue the idea further.

If you’d like to continue getting involved in the pilot neighbourhood, you can also help develop one of the 26 selected ideas. To do so, contact the idea proposers directly or write to mitmachen@pilotquartier.ch.

Idea not chosen
What should be created?
1. The existing inner courtyard has a high level of sealing, strong summer heating and a low quality of stay. At the same time, there is great potential for a climate-impacting and socially activating change in this area. 2. Project idea The courtyard is being developed into a climate-active, multifunctional urban space – through the combination of: climate-impacting floor space. Bright, radiant colors. Reduction of surface temperature. Integration of uses (e.g. basketball, chess field, bocce court, bouncy and exercise areas). Floating greening structure. Planted rope structure at a height of approx. 6–7 m. Horizontal "green blanket" of climbing plants. Shading + evaporative cooling. 3. Effect Reduction of the heat island. Improvement of the microclimate. Intergenerational meeting place. Promotion of exercise and stay. Strengthening the neighbourhood identity. Reduction of the heat island. Improvement of the microclimate. Transformation of passage space → living space. New three-dimensional spatial quality. 4. Contribution to the net zero strategy Climate adaptation through shading and cooling. Promotion of biodiversity in settlement areas. Indirect reduction of energy demand (cooling). Upgrading of existing buildings without new construction. 5. Feasibility Modular and scalable. Technically simple (cable system + greening). Cost-efficient with high impact. Transferable to other inner courtyards in Zurich. 6. Conclusion 'Playground Binzallee' is an example of how a sealed courtyard can be transformed into a climate-resilient, lively and identity-creating urban space with targeted, light interventions.
