Furtwis Housing / baubüro in situ

Andreas Luco — Fri, 16 Dec 2022 03:00:00 +0000

The project for asylum seekers comprises two building structures in modular wood construction. The two buildings together with the community center, the nearby cemetery building, and the adjoining pavilion form a coherent ensemble. The two-building structures are set in such a way that a courtyard area is formed as a neighborly counterpart. The courtyard faces away from the cemetery and is protected from view. The residential development is intended to function for different user groups with different "living time-spaces". Eleven apartments - ranging from shared apartments to families - are accessed via an exterior arcade.

Reconstruction Birmensdorferstrasse / baubüro in situ

The 80m² small row house had only been selectively maintained since its construction in 1949. In order to ensure the processes in the house as well as the energetic refurbishment, we designed the current conversion accordingly holistically. The basement had to be structurally strengthened in order to open up the ground floor into a kitchen-living room. The bathroom on the upper floor was enlarged. We opened up a room chamber of 9m² to a family room with an office. In a second stage, the building was extended by a whole storey with wooden elements. The attic can now be used as a living room and retreat with another bathroom. After completion, the building now offers 120m2 of living space with a 40m2 basement.

Former Sulzer factory site in Winterthur, the Swiss Pension Fund „Stiftung Abendrot“ built a beacon for climate-friendly and sustainable building that shimmers red in its reused sectional metal sheeting. The extension of the head building of Hall 118 for 12 studios think tanks, and a tinkerer‘s laboratory on the first floor was made mainly from used building materials. „All things that were already there plus wood, straw, and clay“.
