As a team of urban planners, architects, and engineers, we develop projects and strategies for a livable and sustainable city. URBAINITY sees itself as an urban improver: For 25 years, we have been designing sustainable neighborhoods, considering buildings throughout their entire life cycle, and supporting property owners in guiding their buildings toward a climate-neutral future with our experience and data-driven analyses.
As a team of passionate urban planners, researchers, architects, and engineers, we invest in superior products and create solutions for a better city of tomorrow. URBAINITY therefore sees itself not only as a project developer but as a city improver.
We want to make places, buildings and life in the city better and have developed ideas and sustainable solutions for all three dimensions. Social communities, climate-neutral building operations and sharing concepts are just one part of our "city improvement strategy".
We develop and manage projects in new buildings and existing buildings with 23 years of construction expertise. From individual buildings to district and campus developments. Our aim is to create projects that are sustainable.
We plan livable urban quarters, characterful residential buildings and newly conceived working environments - for the life and work of tomorrow, because that has already begun today. Sustainable architecture, climate-neutral buildings and circular construction have long been our benchmark and new ideas will continue to be our goal.
We offer pragmatic and value-adding concepts for the decarbonization of your building stock and sustainability strategies for new construction projects. Our expertise is based on years of experience in the fields of architecture, project development and sustainability consulting.
We develop innovative district, campus and housing projects, create new urban working and production environments and optimize the urban spaces in between.
July 2025. How can companies attract skilled workers when there's a shortage of housing? Together with Fresenius University of Applied Sciences Hamburg, we at URBAINITY investigated this question in a student-led practical project. Under our mentoring, five students from the Real Estate Management program developed a well-founded concept on the topic of "company housing"—including market analyses, practical examples, and more.
The Green Table at KoopLoft was once again a real highlight for everyone. Full of exciting ideas, in-depth discussions, and a sense of optimism for timber construction and the reconstruction of Ukraine. Cornelia Sorge presented her Social Campus Gotthardstraße in Berlin – a true flagship project in timber modular construction, featuring emission-free heat supply, inclusive housing, a daycare center...
Our Managing Director Henrik Diemann moderated the panel "Solutions for Existing Buildings" at the expert dialogue on climate-neutral construction in Berlin, organized by the Coalition for Timber Construction. At the expert forum for neighborhood development in Hamburg, hosted by the BFW Nord (Northern Federal Association of Building and Urban Development), Henrik Diemann presented URBAINITY's sustainable neighborhood approaches and strategies. To illustrate this, he shared his experiences...

"Urbainity Bridge combines future-proof workplaces, laboratories and training places on one campus. On construction sites 1 to 3, state-of-the-art laboratory units meet a technical training academy and specialized medical specialists as well as other flexible office and commercial spaces. Creative new work studios, roof gardens and a food court create a special identity and promote community. The campus will open up to the residential area opposite and be a driver for modern workplaces at the Barmbek site. The newly sealed areas will be compensated as much as possible by a dense green zone, intensive green roofs and green facades on the west side. With CO² neutrality in operation, CO² reduced construction and the use of low-pollutant and healthy building materials, we have set ourselves ambitious sustainability goals. The overall building construction is planned as a timber hybrid construction. The structural concrete components are designed with statically reduced load-bearing systems. We are aiming for at least a DGNB certification in the Gold standard.

"The Refugio" is located directly on a 30-meter-high cliff on the steep coast in the southeast of Mallorca. The two-storey cliff house is a reduced, white cube that is deliberately closed off from the street. The facade serves as a neutral canvas, providing a suitable background for four tall palm trees. The main orientation of the house opens up to the sea through a seven-meter-high hall with an open gallery. The views and the sunlight are directed by wooden shutters that can be moved like an accordion on the upper floor. Local natural stones, lime plaster, white concrete and the striking wooden elements create a relaxed, Mediterranean architectural composition. The cubic architecture of the building provides a framework for traditional architectural details that have been reinterpreted.

achtung! is a communications agency for the hyper-connected reality with its headquarters in Hamburg Falkenried, which we have been supporting since 2004. For further expansion of the headquarters in the Falkenried area, Urbainity architecture developed new comfortable office spaces for the areas of management, finance and IT. Concentrated work is made possible by the slightly tinted glass partition walls, and at the same time the open coffee bar offers informal exchange between employees.

In the middle of the historic Münzviertel, this apartment building will create 25 compact and well-designed new apartments in Hamburg. The architecture creates a connection between Hamburg's brick architecture on the street side and sustainable greening concepts for climate adaptation on the courtyard side. High proportions of photovoltaic panels, maximum building efficiency and a dedicated building app make an important contribution to climate protection and at the same time offer a high level of living comfort. Lovingly developed details and special material compositions, right down to the selection of the bricks used from Petersen Tegl, make URBAINITY JUNGLE a valuable one-off.
