Competition in Bochum
19. November 2021
competition
Together with the office VIR.works, Iris Dukat and Philipp Valente won the architectural competition to build two new residential buildings with an underground car park in Bochum.
In addition to the architectural design, the consistent implementation of sustainable construction methods was convincing. In addition to a natural gray water filter system and PV systems on the roof, the entire building was planned in solid lightweight concrete. This reduces the use of steel many times over, which in turn is associated with lower CO2 emissions during manufacture.
In any case, we are happy about the architectural competition win in Bochum and look forward to the further processes for implementing the planning.
