 strialized societies will influence and change nearly all aspects of our l
 ives. The rising life expectancy is leading to an increasing number of old
 er adults\, and of people of a very advanced age. At the same time\, fewer
  children are being born and the overall population is shrinking. These de
 velopments pose a new demand on architecture: to accommodate the demograph
 ic change. But how will the public space in our cities need to change when
  the population ages? This question will be explored in this lecture by in
 troducing a virtual German City of the future. This City is an interactive
  architectural model which was designed and built as part of the exhibitio
 n “All Generations in the Boat Together” on a ship called the MS Scien
 ce. This is an exhibition ship which toured Germany and Austria under the 
 auspices of the German Science Year 2013 “The Demographic Opportunity”
 . The model shows the main aspects of how the urban space will need to be 
 adapted so that it is barrier-free and suitable for different age groups. 
 The future developments of mobility\, housing\, and care and supervision w
 ill be discussed and the underlying  thoughts and supporting data for the 
 design of the model will be outlined.    Dr. Gesine Marquardt's research w
 ork is centered around the human response to the built environment. She fo
 cuses on how the physical environment can be designed in such a way that i
 t can be accessed equally by all users\, regardless of age\, disability\, 
 or cognitive impairment. Dr. Marquardt obtained a Master’s degree in Arc
 hitecture at the University of Stuttgart\, Germany in 1999. After working 
 as an Architect in the field of Health Care Design she committed her caree
 r to research. In 2007 she was awarded her PhD and three research awards. 
 After a postdoctoral stay as a researcher at the Johns Hopkins Medical Ins
 titutions in Baltimore\, MD\, she was awarded funding by the German Resear
 ch Foundation (DFG) to establish her own research group on “Architecture
  under Demographic Change”.    The lecture is part of the Dresden-Columb
 us International Lecture Series on Sustainable Urban Development (DCI). Th
 e Dresden-Columbus International Lecture Series addresses topics of high a
 ctuality regarding sustainable urban development that are relevant to the 
 development of the two sister cities of Dresden and Columbus (USA). The le
 ctures are a continuation of the successful and long-standing joint progra
 m on sustainable development in the urban region conducted as part of a 15
 -year partnership between Leibniz Institute of Ecological Urban and Region
 al Development (IOER)\, TU Dresden and The Ohio State University. The part
 nership received the Excellence in Teaching Prize of the Association of Eu
 ropean Schools of Planning (AESOP) in 2006.
