Construction uses more resources than any other industry on earth. We therefore have a huge responsibility to create buildings that are sustainable and flexibly usable over the long term. How can we build climate-efficient buildings that also meet high design standards?

The aac scholarship students focused on this pressing question in the context of a site at the future Elbbrücken approach to the city of Hamburg. The brief was to develop designs that use resources as carefully as possible by choosing recycling-oriented construction and appropriate materials, where possible re-used (e.g. from urban mining). The workshop was headed up by gmp partners Stephan Schütz and Nikolaus Goetze.

The results of the workshop are available to view in an exhibition at the aac studios on the Rainvilleterrasse Campus until 17 March 2023.
