03 I 2021 PROJECT

Funeral Forest Osterfeld | Allendorf

Planning Phase

The district of Osterfeld is located about 2 km north of the municipality of Allendorf (Eder). On the north-western edge of the settlement there is a south-facing, steeply ascending forest area with a valuable grove of mainly beech trees. Here, a burial forest with urn graves is being created on a partial area of approx. 2.2 ha. The design provides for paved and less paved, informal paths to gently open up the area and the graves. Part of the mourning and commemoration is also a memorial place covered with a weather roof, which will be set up at the entrance to the burial forest. Sectional view: © GTL

12 | 2024 Award

GFB Future Prize in the October 2024 competition round

We are delighted that our "Marienplatz Darmstadt" project has been awarded the GFB Future Prize (October 2024)! The recognition honours the forward-looking process that the city of Darmstadt has embarked on in the development of Marienplatz. The centrally located Marienplatz, which covers around 1.4 hectares, is a model project for sustainable neighbourhood development. For the first time, a concept award was used here in which citizens were actively involved in the decision-making process. Together with Implenia and colleagues from netzwerkarchitekten, the design envisages a dominant urban feature in the form of a 16-storey tower block and a six-storey meander in a timber hybrid construction. The combination of high density, open spaces, climate-friendly design and diverse forms of housing is intended to create a liveable and social neighbourhood.

We would like to thank you for the great cooperation and congratulate all the other winners!
