The URBAINITY Architecture Team plans urban districts, ensembles and individual projects, as well as interior design living and working spaces. Above all, the requirement to create sustainable and aesthetic buildings and living environments that generate noticeable added value is always at the forefront. We use renewable energies, healthy building materials and intensive building greening! But we don't stop there: circular construction in the sense of the cradle-to-cradle principle, the reduction of grey energy, preparatory planning for later conversion and the optimization of buildings according to ecological and economic criteria are incorporated into every plan right from the start. We meet these multifaceted requirements with many years of expertise and never stop looking for the latest possibilities and ways.

URBAINITY BRIDGE – A CAMPUS FOR THE COMPANIES OF TOMORROW
"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.

A Cliffhouse on Mallorca
"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.

Expansion of the office space at Falkenried
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.

PROJECT JUNGLE COMPACT LIVING CONCEPTS
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.
