Building owner:

Interconstruction

Design of load-bearing structures:

SCOPING

For the realisation of this project, the building owner Interconstruction opted for a wooden construction to combine green building with an innovative concept. The underlying aim was to preserve the exceptional location of the Vilgenis Park.

A modern residential complex in the middle of a forest: this building project is in close contact with nature and reflects a lifestyle aimed at well-being, environmental awareness and living comfort.

Rubner erected the entire timber structure and the prefabricated timber load-bearing walls for the two seven-storey residential buildings, including the insulation and the suspended balconies.

The project was completed in 2022.
