    Madrid Río

    Madrid Río. A project of Urban Transformation

    Madrid, Spain
    Madrid Río is a truly exceptional project. Undoubtedly, it is the most important project executed in Madrid over the last few decades and probably one of the most ambitious projects carried out in Europe in recent times. It is only comparable to the Big Dig, completed in Boston, USA. This is perhaps the first european project that truly integrates large infrastructure and the built urban fabric with the natural environment that surround them.

    All-natural off-grid mobile round house

    All-natural off-grid mobile round house ("upgraded yurt" sparingly using resources)

    Modra, Slovakia
    In a beautiful place out in the country, in wineyards near forests, we built an all-natural removable mobile round house ("upgraded yurt") that is not firmly attached to the ground and is not connected to any utilities. It's fully off-grid and self-sufficient. The electricity is generated by the low-budget high-economy solar system for no more than 1000 EUR. A composting separation toilet is included. It's standing here for almost 5 years already and we are living here daily for 2 years.

    Prefabricated nZEB renovation

    Prefabricated renovation project leading the way for the sector and policymakers

    Tallinn, Estonia
    In 2017 TalTech demonstrated how to reach nearly Zero Energy Building performance by applying prefabricated deep renovation technology on a five-storey apartment building in Tallinn. By now the project has served as a proof of concept for prefabricated renovation solutions in policy, production and design. The project has boosted uptake of the technology, led the way for a grant scheme replicating industrialized renovation and served as a showcase for various stakeholders for knowledge exchange.

    Mountain Hotel Eden Selva

    Zero Co2 Hotel in Dolomiti Unesco site - Selva di Val Gardena - Suedtirol

    Selva di Val Gardena, Italy
    The very essence of architecture is a synthesis between the spirit of the place with the choice of materials that belong to it, and the efficiency of the building.From the larch forest at the foot of the Sella group in the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we have thought of trees that rise towards the sky and define the basic shape of the hotel

    Einfach Bauen (Build Simply)

    Form Follows Material - Holistic strategy for reducing complexity in buildings

    Bad Aibling, Germany
    After extensive exploration at the TU Munich, three research houses monolithic wall structures were build - one made of wood, one of masonry and one of lightweight concrete. The building follow these design principles - Single-layer constructions - No added Materials for high recycling loop potential - Consistent separation of building and technical systems - Climatic inertia due to large thermal storage mass - Adequate window areas - no further sun protection required

    Polypropylene (PP) fiber reinforcement

    Online programs for calculating with polypropylene (PP) fiber reinforcement in concrete structures

    København Ø, Denmark
    Using polypropylene (PP) fiber reinforcement instead of steel reinforcement in concrete structures, the CO2-emission is reduced with more than 60% on the reinforcement, while providing easier quality control, a safer work environment, and reduced working hours and cost. PPCD has developed online programs for calculating the required dosage of PP fiber reinforcement in various concrete structures. The programs are available for everyone, so we can start saving the planet together!

    Gleis 21

    Wohnprojekt Gleis 21

    Vienna, Austria
    Gleis 21 is in the heart of the new quarter in Vienna: The Sonnwendviertel forms a bridge between the tenth district and the inner-city area. Visible from afar, the wooden facade already signals a contrast to the familiar urban look. The wood hybrid construction is a technical innovation with a role model. Created through participation, the residents own, operate and manage the co-housing-project collectively themselves with a great external impact.

    Thermal activated Headquarter

    13.500m² heating and cooling with 12.000€ per year

    Bergheim, Austria
    The new headquarters building was constructed with innovative technologies for heating and cooling the office, showroom and storage areas as a lighthouse project for the whole industry. The use of a geothermal probe field for heating the building by means of optimally dimensioned brine/water heat pumps and for passive cooling enables extremely low energy costs. A photovoltaic system covers the electricity demand for the building services and ensures the CO2-free operation of the plant.

    Breathe IN Breathe OUT

    Breathe IN Breathe - Future smell of biomaterials

    Bratislava, Slovakia
    How to distinguish between natural and synthetic materials? The project Breathe IN Breathe OUT uses smell as a design tool to develop new aroma-active biomaterials to kick-off the yet to come world of circular consumption. The sense of smell is used to help the consumer to identify the raw material of bioplastics and to convey the material lifecycle with a unqiue smell. The developed fragances are an additional identifier of the material origin and applied in interior design and architecture.
