Living in a “vertical garden”
The new residential complex with a total of 102 municipal apartments New comprises two residential buildings that are connected by central access. This joint input also serves as a “Bassena”, which leads to the common room with a kitchen on the ground floor and the staircases.
A good half of the facades of the new municipal building will wear a green plant dress. Ranking and wall -bound “Living Walls” take care of this. In addition, plant troughs are available to every apartment. The concept is supplemented by green roofs. Different plantings achieve a living facade that contributes to cooling in summer and to improve the microclimate.
A well thought -out energy supply concept – it is lowest energy houses with full thermal insulation facade, district heating, component activation and photovoltaics – ensures a resource -friendly and yet very comfortable living atmosphere.
