Profile

Our designs and strategies always include recurring concepts such as integration, intensification, multi-use, phasing and adaptability, which we regard as prerequisites for any sustainable approach. In order to develop design strategies for specific project briefs, we follow an integrative and research-based method, that reacts to the specific spatial, social, ecological and economical parameters of a given task. We collaborate closely with citizens and users, clients and experts in temporary or permanent collaboration. In the course of time we developed a good relationship with close teams of various fields and a broad knowledge on design through collaboration. This trans-disciplinarity and participatory approach enables us to generate a large knowledge of innovative design solutions already in an early stage, resulting in high degree of sustainability and economic efficiency, especially in later planning and construction phases.
