Our thinking and our experience have been enriched by our wide variety of projects including: infill developments, residential neighbourhoods, business premises, energy concepts and research projects for urban districts, new campus working environments and hotels.
APARTMENT BUILDING HAMBURG – ST. GEORG
URBAINITY JUNGLE
Centrally located in Repsoldstraße: 25 compact apartments for urbanites with the highest standards of sustainability – CO2-free operation, living green walls to courtyard elevations, healthy interior building materials and an app for building controls.
In the centre of the Steimker Gärten district, Wolfsburg, we are constructing two buildings with 188 apartments and commercial space on the ground floor. The KFW 40 Plus energy standard, green living walls to courtyard elevations and the community spaces are unique in this area.
26 apartments with a generous loggia, which was developed as a ‘holiday home porch’ with a lot of wood and a sliding solar protection element, offer maximum housing quality in a green environment.
In the autumn of 2020, just under 400 apartments for rent, a day nursery, a ring road, a public park and its own heat and power supply have been completed after a seven-year design and construction period.
A new office location with space for 1,350 employees was to be created for the digital network, XING. In addition to the development of the brief, typology and building design, we were initially commissioned to find a suitable site.
The free-standing building, which will be built using the hybrid timber construction method, provides innovative companies in the health tech sector a communicative working environment and optimal use of synergies. The bistro on the ground floor and the roof garden are only part of the offers.
Two loft buildings with a total of 5,800 m² space for creative service providers from the surrounding districts. Our aim was to develop characterful buildings and spaces, that inspire the users and offer them a lot of flexibility.
22 compact apartments for singles and couples who want to live a central urban lifestyle. The architecture of the street elevation was intentionally composed with smaller-scale, varied elements in order to fit in with the late nineteenth-century townscape.
ENERGY-EFFICIENT URBAN REDEVELOPMENT OF HAMBURG – BERGEDORF
For the district of Bergedorf-Süd we developed strategies for its energy-efficient renovation, and supported their implementation for three years. The aim of the project was to start a transformation to a climate-neutral district in accordance with the Paris climate protection targets. It was scientifically monitored by a research group commissioned by the federal government.
GEWISS - IN COOPERATION WITH THE HAFENCITY UNIVERSITY
As a partner of the GEWISS research package processed by the HafenCity University, we have developed methods and tools for large-scale neighbourhood studies and monitored their application in selected model neighbourhoods in Hamburg.
330 apartments for rent, over 50% of which are social housing homes, a day care nursery, its own heat and power supply and residential group projects with the Alsterdorf Foundation are just some of the features of this multilayered neighbourhood development with DGNB Gold certification.
RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL BUILDING HAMBURG – HOHELUFT
H99 – SMARTLOFTS
The 45m² apartments are accessed from the street side via an access balcony. They have a compact plan and high-quality internal timber fittings. On the quiet courtyard side an elevated garden has been laid out, which all residents may use in addition to their balconies.
About 100 subsidised flats for students, trainees and families, plus a day care nursery are grouped in five energy-efficient blocks around a generous, landscaped court.
In one of the most exclusive locations around the Eckenförde Bay, we conceived a fine-grained Scandinavian inspired group of buildings which blends harmoniously with nature and the coastline. The 100-bed hotel is designed using a timber construction system and is planned with publicly accessible open space and a roof-level bar.
Water, ships and containers are the defining elements in the Port of Hamburg. Together with Studio Labs, this spirit inspired us to develop a hotel made from shipping containers, and to place it where it belongs – on the edge of the port.
Bordering the River Havel, the Carossa Quarter is being built on an area of 13 hectares. It is a mixture of listed industrial architecture and newbuild apartments that are connected to the adjacent landscape space.
Located in the historic Münzviertel neighbourhood, this apartment building comprises 25 compact and well-designed newbuild apartments in Hamburg. The architecture creates a connection between the typical Hamburg brick architecture on the street side and sustainable greening concepts for climate adaptation on the courtyard side. A high proportion of photovoltaic panels, maximum building efficiency and a building app make an important contribution to climate protection and at the same time offer a great deal of living comfort. Lovingly designed details and special material compositions down to the selection of bricks from the Danish manufacturer Petersen Tegl, make the URBAINITY JUNGLE a valuable one-off.

The Plus is one of the largest KFW 40 Plus residential schemes in Germany. Since 2019 we have been developing a total of 188 apartments for rent and almost 3,000 m² of retail and commercial space in two buildings in the ambitious urban expansion area of Steimker Gärten in Wolfsburg. Compact plans and community spaces on the roof and in the inner courtyard provide attractive housing in this growing city for both digital nomads and also young families. Living green walls, healthy building materials and their own electricity production via photovoltaic panels on the roofs will become even more important for future target groups.

ROTBUCHENHAIN
APARTMENT BUILDING ROTBUCHENHAIN LIVING IN HAMBURG – ALSTERDORF
On the last quietly situated construction site in the newbuild neighbourhood of Alsterberg, we developed an apartment building with an original objective: to provide every resident with their own veranda. The generous connection between the inside and outside possesses an extraordinary quality, particularly when this open space provides the atmosphere of a holiday home veranda. So, we have developed a concept, whereby the loggias are clad with timber slats with additional built-in cupboards. These can be used for storing garden furniture, cushions and barbecue utensils etc.

GREEN LIVING IN HAMBURG-LOKSTEDT
Between 2013 and 2020, a sustainable residential area was constructed on the site of a former industrial area. Between Süderfeldstraße und Lottestraße we developed just under 400 residential units. We started with the project-related development plan, the development of an energy concept and our own design concept. The project was implemented in four construction phases plus a phase for the road and a public park. The constructions sites F and K opposite the park were the last buildings, which were completed at the end of 2020. The entire newbuild area is supplied with heat and power from its own energy network. Our guiding principle for this sustainable neighbourhood development was the link between architecture and green spaces.

NEW WORK CAMPUS FOR XING SE - NEW WORKING ENVIRONMENTS IN HAMBURG-BAHRENFELD
In 2017 the professional social network XING had to deal with an increase in staff numbers due to its dynamic expansion. Various sites in Hamburg were to be merged and XING commissioned us as a service developer with the requirements planning, cost-effectiveness analysis and property search for a 28,000 m² building for up to 1,500 employees. After numerous studies and negotiations with site owners, we were able to secure the property in Gasstraße, Hamburg-Bahrenfeld. The plan for XING SE to manage its own property development project in Hamburg was abandoned in 2019.

URBAINITY WORKHOUSE CLUSTER WORKING IN HAMBURG-EIMSBÜTTEL
The idea of developing a future cluster in the health tech sector grew up in the neighbourhood around the university hospital and Beiersdorf AG. A timber hybrid building is to be built, which brings together the office and laboratory spaces of various companies in these sectors. The building will have the highest standards of sustainability and forward-thinking working environments. A communal bistro, the central reception area and conference rooms on the roof are just part of the sharing concept. URBAINITY HOUSE will also be CO2-neutral in operation, but in addition, its construction is balanced by grey energy and recyclability. Various green living walls and roof gardens complete the URBAINITY strategy of “better buildings”.

CREATIVE OFFICES IN ST. PAULI
Initially commissioned by a Hamburg digital company, we developed a loft building on Budapester Straße and were also able to secure the site with the help of a business development grant. After the merger with another property, a group of buildings was formed comprising flexible spaces of various sizes, which eventually attracted many diverse creative and cultural enterprises from the neighbourhood. A high standard of energy efficiency and automatic windows result in a very sustainable building concept, because it was possible to dispense with the usual mechanical cooling of office areas.

LUCENTE
APARTMENT BUILDING LUCENTE LIVING IN HAMBURG-EPPENDORF
In the historic centre of Eppendorf, two apartment buildings were built with 32 new compact apartments for singles and couples. Due to the density of adjoining buildings and the high groundwater level, this infill site was a very complicated one to carry out. An essential part of our main concept was the harmonious insertion of the newbuild into the existing small-scale Gründerzeit buildings from the nineteenth century. Due to the lack of space and the location’s good transport connections it was possible to make do without an underground car park. The positive demand for this high-quality product confirms our approach. The purchasers mainly travel by public transport and bike.

MORE ENERGY EFFICIENCY
FOR THE DISTRICT
After a comprehensive expert report on reducing the energy demand of Bergedorf-Süd had been commissioned by the joint venture consortium within the framework of the federal programme “Energy-efficient Urban Redevelopment”, in 2014 the three-year implementation phase of the concept began. The aim was to initiate and support measures within the management of the refurbishment. These were to reduce the primary energy demand of this district of Hamburg over the long term by reducing the energy demand of the buildings and the conversion of the energy supply. In addition to the implementation on a broad level, we supervised lighthouse projects with special significance for Bergedorf. One example of this was the Rudolf Steiner school, one of the oldest school buildings in Hamburg. It re-opened after completion of the measures on 1 September 2017. This sustainable urban development project in Hamburg was one of twelve representative projects selected to be scientifically monitored by a research group commissioned by the federal government.

GEWISS – A German acronym that stands for Geographical Heat Information and Simulation System. A long name for a clear objective: the creation of an interactive atlas that displays the supply and demand for heat and their future development for the entire Hamburg metropolitan area. On this basis, the development of a sustainable energy supply and measures to reduce CO2 in the existing building stock can be planned. The research project ran under the programme for an energy-efficient city (EnEff:) by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy and was conducted among others by the University of Applied Sciences (HAW), the HafenCity University and the Ministry for the Environment and Energy, Hamburg (BUE). As a partner in the research package data integration and microsimulation, we have developed methods and tools for large-scale neighbourhood studies and monitored their application in selected model neighbourhoods in Hamburg.

GREEN LIVING IN
HAMBURG-ALSTERDORF
On a former barracks site, we developed an inclusive residential neighbourhood, a day care nursery and office space for the housing management of the GWG [housing association]. Our initial approach with this project was that only the lowest amount of
CO2
emissions should be produced during operation. The development of an energy concept thus came before urban design. A self-sufficient heat and power supply with its own heating grid, high building efficiency standards and DGNB certification became the key objectives of the new neighbourhood. Beyond that, our focus was on social mixing, which is why we created 50% social housing homes and 50% accessible homes, of which 52 were subsidised student flats and some housing group projects for people with special needs.

LIVING IN HAMBURG-HOHELUFT
We realised the Smartloft concept H99 on Hoheluftchaussee, the main street in the Hoheluft district and close to the university. The objective in infilling this gap in the street frontage was to develop small and cleverly designed apartments, which despite the noisy street, nevertheless enable the residents to enjoy a high degree of liveability. The result was 45 m² units, which were inserted as cubes. The kitchen-living rooms were arranged on the street side, bathrooms in the centre, designed as a timber cube, with the sleeping area, living room and balconies on the quiet west side. All apartments were partially furnished, with every last space designed with built-in cupboards and space for household appliances. The catering outlet on the ground floor has outdoor seating in the courtyard, which matches the young target group of the residents. They can also use the community elevated garden for table tennis tournaments and barbecues.

YOUNG LIVING + DAYCARE NURSERY IN HAMBURG-LOKSTEDT
In Süderfeld Park, our Service Development department developed an ensemble of buildings for ZBI Wohnen comprising subsidised student flats, social housing for families and a day care nursery. The day care nursery with space for 110 children was consciously located next to the newly created public park. The remaining homes, 93 of which are apartments for students and young people undergoing vocational training are grouped around a shared landscaped court. This was the first time we used the innovative and time-saving VST composite formwork system. This is a construction method whereby the shell elements are industrially prefabricated to exact dimensions and then directly assembled on site. The concrete is poured using self-compacting concrete. In this project, the KfW 55 and 40 standards were combined with a solar energy system and a combined heat and power unit within the framework of the sustainable energy concept.

The ‘container room’ specially developed for this concept, combines purism and design for the essential – the view of the city and the Elbe. The Lego-style modularity of the container construction method offers two different room sizes: one container per single guest or couple and two to three containers for a family.
