structural elements not only reduces steel usage but also enhances the its recycla-
bility. The hygroscopic properties of the wood surfaces help regulate and stabilise
indoor humidity, while the goat hair carpet in the office areas has air-purifying and
antiseptic qualities, contributing to the health and well-being of the occupants. The
abundance of natural light not only improves energy efficiency but also creates a bet-
ter work environment. Windows and controls for temperature, light and shading are
designed to allow users to influence the indoor climate.A current study is exploring
the potential for reducing sick leave due to the natural materials and excellent day-
light conditions in the building. Quantitative measurements of air quality, acoustics
and well-being complement our efforts to create a healthy and pleasant environment
for the users. As mentioned earlier, calculations show a 60 percent reduction in
greenhouse gas emissions over a 60-year lifecycle, thanks to the use of regional
wood. Sixty percent of the furniture was reused or purchased second-hand, saving
over 35 tons of CO emissions. The remaining 40 percent of furniture consists of
2
necessary new purchases that also meet important circular economy requirements
– they are made from recycled cellulose fibres, recycled aluminium, ocean plastic,
surplus wool or linoleum scraps. The biotope roof and green stormwater basins in
front of the building promote biodiversity and mitigate heavy rainfall events. With
no car parking spaces provided, and with good connections to the bicycle network
and public transport, our design encourages environmentally friendly transportation.
The conscious design not only enables flexible and long-lasting use but also reduces
environmental impact, making our project (hopefully) a model for the future. Grundriss Regelgeschoss • Regular floor plan
