URBAINITY JUNGLE

URBAINITY JUNGLE
LIVING IN HAMBURG-ST. GEORG

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.

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.

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.

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.

ENERGY-EFFICIENT URBAN REDEVELOPMENT

ENERGY-EFFICIENT
URBAN REDEVELOPMENT
IN HAMBURG BERGEDORF
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 WITH THE HAFENCITY RESEARCH ON FUTURE HEAT SUPPLY

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.

ALSTERBERG

ALSTERBERG QUARTER
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.

SMARTLOFTS H99
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.

HOTEL IN THE

The design concept ‘Terminal 144 Youth Hostel’ occupies a unique position in the low-budget hotel segment. It takes the individuality of the location and at the same time creates an added enthusiasm for it. 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. We developed this vision for the Port of Hamburg together with Studio Labs with an industrial product that is ubiquitous in Hamburg – the shipping container.

The building complex of the present-day Carossa Quarter is located in the northern part of Spandau, between the Havel and Streitstraße. It was constructed between 1938 and 1942 by the architect Hans Hertlein as an aircraft equipment factory for the Siemens company. Together with ZBI we developed the urban design structure, functional mix as well as the individual products within the framework of a service development. For the area around the Hertlein building, it was necessary to establish an approved development plan, for which we were primarily responsible for managing. The planning objective of the development plan was the provision of building land for Berlin in the order of approximately 1,200 residential units.

A Cliffhouse in Mallorca

"The Refugio" is located directly on a 30-meter-high cliff in southeast Mallorca. The two-story house is a reduced, white cube that is deliberately closed off from the street. There, the facade serves as a neutral canvas, providing an appropriate backdrop for four tall palm trees. Through a seven-meter-high hall with an open gallery, the main orientation of the house opens to the sea. Views and sunlight are directed by wooden sliding shutters on the upper floor. Local natural stones, lime plasters, white concrete and the concise wooden elements create a relaxed Mediterranean architectural composition. The cubic architecture of the structure provides a framework for reinterpreted traditional architectural details.
