This project has developed into a polymorphic form as a result of the site's constrained geometry , while providing as many green apertures and urban qualities as possible. Every aspect of the project, from the playground to the roof, is structured around an architectural promenade, an inner street that supports the overall intention.
The TANKTURM stands for the preservation, renewal and realignment of architectural heritage for contemporary culture, art and society:
A popular office- and event-center was developed from an abandoned industrial monument, which gives an authentic and inviting new impetus to an emerging district of Heidelberg.
The pioneering, low-tech approach to the historical building fabric is exemplary for many such threatened buildings and offers diverse approaches for the community.
Preservation and development of significant cultural and historical heritage for the improvement of cultural tourism offer in Latvia /Zemgale region has resulted in conservation and reconstruction works of the national architectural monument - Dobele Livonian Order Castle Chapel - to create and offer new services to residents and tourists. The castle mound of the Livonian Order of Dobele, together with the ruins of a stone castle, is the oldest and most important evidence of the history.
At Lake Trummen, Liljewall have on behalf of Växjö municipality, together with the artist Gunilla Bandolin, created Tetraedern (the tetrahedron). It´s a work of art, an outdoor gym, a place to gather and a new landmark in the Swedish City Växjö. With a construction of silicon-impregnated wood, the tetrahedron invites passers-by to exersice the body by climbing, jumping and lifting. Or to just enjoy the view.
While seeking the experience of nature, the one closest to us remains unnoticed. Human’s inability to perceive results in the loss of its part when trying to define it. Weeds spreading in every corner of the city are unseen. Herbarium accommodates the problem by extracting wild plants and weeds from urban tissue to show their beauty and healing properties.
The ensemble of Science Tower & Leopoldinum School Campus form the heart of the new Smart City district in Graz, Austria. The buildings demonstrate pioneering green-tech and educational concepts such as an 13th floor biosphere for food production, transparent energyglass facades, green energy technologies and open (air) teaching clusters. National and EU-funding was used for an interdisciplinary planning process, stakeholder involvement and sets the basis for the realisation of a PED in Graz
HOME4LESS : quality temporary homes for the homeless. We build modular structures that can rehabilitate a temporarily unoccupied building not intended for housing and turn it into housing for those who do not yet have access to housing on the renting market. It is used as springboards towards permanent housing. The project involves experience experts, architects, social workers, and compagnies of socio-professionnal inclusion.
The Lilienhof quarter in Munich was a charming, old residential area with outdated, small, dark apartments with coal stoves and gas flow heaters. GWG München realized a pilot-project, which created a future-oriented quarter. Together with two strong partners, a comprehensive energy concept was developed and implemented. The result was a technically refined, CO2-neutral residential complex with a primary energy requirement of around 50% below the maximum permissible value for new buildings.
This protein shaker is designed to contain a single single-dose protein powder capsule. The shaker can be used as a water bottle and just by pressing the capsule, it breaks and pours the content into the container, allowing you to enjoy protein shakes of the chosen flavor. The challenge of this project lies in the difficulty of breaking the capsule only when the user wishes, so many tests had to be done to achieve the optimal result.
Cradle to Cradle® is used as the design principle for the Circular Economy across all industries. In this way, it supports a holistic and futureproof product development for companies to get on the right track and be part of the change towards a sustainable and truly circular future. Cradle to Cradle® can be used as a universal framework for products that are beneficial by being either fully biodegradable or recyclable on a very high quality level.
