Construction of a new multi-purpose residential building | Filderstadt-Bernhausen
2nd Prize in collaboration with ATELIER30 Architekten GmbH
As a striking urban landmark at the junction of Bernhäuser Hauptstraße and Volmarstraße, the new building marks the start of the pedestrian zone and brings together public space, residential and commercial functions to form a vibrant ensemble. An inviting forecourt enhances the location and brings the neighbourhood to life with restaurants and events, whilst a clearly structured building with flexible living arrangements and sustainable hybrid timber construction enables future-proof uses. The focus is on the open space: the green inner courtyard, as a communal hub, offers space for socialising, play and retreat. Tree planting, green islands and shaded seating areas create a pleasant microclimate, complemented by lawns and a communal barbecue deck. This creates a high-quality, permeable living space that connects the neighbourhood and the city.
