Projects
 

Transform Anything.
We create spaces and products that bring people together and are able to grow with us.

Our work anticipates the future. Good design is based on a deep understanding of the users' need and the context. We work across many sectors to bring spatial innovation to life. Together, we strive for transformation in every project.

What if we can simply build and unbuild our houses like Lego Bricks?

CRCLR HUT

The CRCLR HUT is currently being built on the Urban Tech Republic site in Berlin TXL. This pavilion, initiated by the timber construction start-up TRIQBRIQ and the architectural firm Beta Realities, is an impressive example of the latest possibilities in the field of sustainable and circular construction.

Can a software-approach to architecture revolutionize
affordable housing?

ICON Initiative 99 - Collective Parts

3D-printing affordable housing with a software-based, participatory approach to architecture and planning. Beta Realities' combination of user-friendly design software and a Kit of Parts approach to 3D printing presents a powerful technology platform - transforming the planning, production, and construction chain with a more participatory approach to affordable architecture and neighborhoods that focus on the needs of their users.

Interior spaces that contribute to well-being and exchange.

Makoto Boutique Hotel

The redesign an exclusive Boutique Hotel is situated within the lush national park surrounding of Shanghai. The Makoto Boutique Hotel is designed to be an exclusive recluse from the city. Located within a sustainable village of indoor and outdoor experiences, it’s a sustainable planned adaptive re-use of the existing building fabric.

The integrated interior concept allows for multiple flexible spaces, both public and private.

How does an airport become
a communal center?

Innsbruck Airport Extension

Can an urban development 
contribute to environmental protection?

Fenix Masterplan Prague

The Fenix masterplan proposes an innovative model of holistic living intertwined with collaborative work environments and recreational facilities activating the site’s largely untouched ecosystem. ue to its proximity to the Vltava river high flood levels the architectural intervention only touches the earth lightly and elevatesfucntions to create a communal network on the ground that acts with a sponge city principle.

How to introduce a green quarter through a gateway.

Wuxi Timber Hybrid

The new gateway tower is to be the largest timber-hybrid construction in China and houses multiple functions like hotel, office and retail. It is located in the newly designed city quarter of Wuxi. The structure draws carbon from the air and store it inside the building’s structure. Cross-Laminated-Timber (CLT) is one of the main building materials and stands out for its strength, appearance, versatility, and sustainability.

Mobile and circular
neighborhoods on-demand.

BetaHood

BetaHood aims to create sustainable and participatory neighbourhoods from micro living units. The ambition of these mixed-resident neighbourhoods is the reintegration of homeless people back into society. The project is therefore addressing  social and considerate answers to macro trends such as urbanization, the rapid population growth, the rising gap between rich and poor, and the shift to greener cities in an increasingly service-based society.

Can we extend cultural heritage through open buildings?

Meistersingerhalle Nürnberg

The Nuremberg Concert Hall enriches the cultural city of Nuremberg with a unique musical experience in which music and space become one and extends the historically rich heritage of the neighbouring Meistersingerhalle.

Based on Nuremberg’s landmark, the duality of its twin castle, two buildings side by  side create a synergetic connection to a coherent unity.

Can a circular daycare act as an educator?

Circular Daycare Berlin

The Kindergarden at Ortlerweg is a sustainable building in all aspects of the design planned to serve as a model typology. The guiding principle is a climate-positive footprint, derived from circular economy principles in construction,, creating a sustainable contribution to the urban quarter. Two thematic structures, the “playhouses”, are connected  by shared functions, giving the Kindergarten its distinct appearance. With the position of the two playhouses, the building becomes  a mediator at the interface between neighborhood and nature - a lively meeting point in the urban quarter.

Can refurbishment be systemized for multiple sites?

Circular Daycare Berlin

The industrial park on Veloroute 10 in Kiel serves as a source of inspiration for a city quarter in Kiel. The aim of the pilot project is to change cities sustainably and to create diverse, inclusive places that promote community. A flexible and modular design is envisioned to cater to a universal vision of scalable refurbishment of industrial production sites. The projects are to be realized with the help of element construction, circular planning methods and sustainable, recyclable materials.
