The core concept of sustainability underpins all aspects of this design plan. In addition to the choice of construction and materials, space efficiency, flexibility and a human scale were also particularly important. The new building extends the existing structure to the east and creates new indoor and outdoor spaces via two connecting corridors. A work yard, a herb garden with raised beds, a natural play garden with a green classroom area and a new gymnasium with a central forecourt are being created. Short distances, flexible learning areas, an open-plan forum and classrooms of equal size enable versatile use without the need for conversion work. The timber frame construction with cross-laminated timber ceilings allows for a high degree of prefabrication and single-type dismantling. A green retention roof serves to store rainwater and provide cooling, PV systems generate electricity, and district heating is used for heating. Decentralised ventilation, pergolas and sun protection ensure a pleasant indoor climate. All areas are barrier-free, and a guidance system aids orientation. The compact, flexible design and recyclable materials guarantee sustainable and economical use.

Student dormitory
Modular, serial, sustainable. Five-story timber hybrid construction with prefabricated components.
Funded by the social housing support program of the state of Schleswig-Holstein as a pilot project in the KfW 40 standard.
Collaboration with NOOR Architektur GmbH (Phases 1-4 by NOOR Architektur GmbH, Phases 5-8 as a consortium of NOOR-graadwies).

Consulting, project management, Phases 1-4 [Establishing the basis of the project, Preliminary design, Final design, Building permission application], Phases 5-8 in part [Execution drawings, Preparation of contracted award, Assisting award process, Project supervision].The barrier-free and wheelchair-accessible student dormitory Kai-Uwe von Hassel Haus is a pilot project for the state of Schleswig-Holstein in the field of sustainable and environmentally conscious construction and living. A consistently barrier-free design and generously designed individual and communal spaces provide a livable and affordable living environment for people with and without physical disabilities. The spatial system contributes to communication and social interaction among students. The building is designed to be sustainable and circular, enabling the reuse of all materials.
The use of renewable energy and the optimization of maintenance and operational costs provide a future-oriented basis for social housing support. In 2019, the project received the 1st place award in the Sustainability category from the city of Kiel for sustainable construction and living.

ALTE MU
Climate-friendly, socially equitable neighborhood for living and working.
Project costs:

GFA:
11,000 m²Project duration:
01/2016 – 12/2024
Services:
Project development and design, Building permission application, Preparation for the workshop procedure.
Since 2013, the creative center ALTE MU has been in interim use by an engaged creative community. Now the pilot project ALTE MU realizes a forward-looking and uniquely innovative model neighborhood in Northern Germany by integrating the living, working, and cultural spheres. The emerging open space with various publicly accessible workshops, studios, workspaces, and participatory workshops provides a space for creators, creative work, participation, equal opportunities, and socially equitable living in the neighborhood. The ALTE MU project makes a significant contribution to the common good and user-based urban design, aiming to realize the vision of a creative village in the city.
Through a collaborative design process with the architecture office deadline, a concept was developed in a workshop format, envisioning a combination of substantial parts of the existing structures with new construction. In the subsequent process, we formed a joint venture with deadline to plan the new construction and renovation of the existing buildings based on this foundation.

Circular Wood Solid Construction Without Composite Materials
Project costs:

GFA:

01/2020 – 05/2023
Services:
Phases 1-8 [Establishing the basis of the project, Preliminary design, Final design, Building permission application, Execution drawings, Preparation of contracted award, Assisting award process, Project supervision]
The multi-story office building in solid wood construction features a square and symmetrical floor plan that allows for flexible space usage. This enables both new temporary configurations and long-term repurposing.
With the exception of the foundation, the building is designed with circularity in mind. Special attention has been given to ensure that the materials used can be seamlessly and harmlessly separated during remodeling or deconstruction. This approach allows for the return of building materials and components back into the material cycle or for reuse. The wooden facade's design breaks down the building's substantial volume and aligns it with the adjacent residential structures. The interior spaces are illuminated through an inner courtyard. The basement of the building is adapted to the site's topography and seamlessly integrates with the terrain, minimizing the need for extensive earthworks.

Village moderation, project development,
Phases 1-2 [Establishing the basis of the project, Preliminary design]
In the project 'Dorfsoziale Mitte' (Village Social Center), a sustainable utilization concept was developed for the town center in Hohenfelde to secure and further enhance community life in the village. Citizens were invited to actively participate in the creation process of the future village center. Through village moderation, workshops, and working groups, specific planning tasks and goals were developed. Planning tasks included the restoration and repurposing of the historically protected parsonage, open spaces, as well as a community hall and a kindergarten. The necessary area sizes and uses were established as a planning foundation through close collaboration with the local government, church representatives, and authorities.
The implementation of individual tasks began with the planning and realization of the community hall.
