Now, thanks to funding from the Federal Ministry of Construction, the Königsbrunn Forum is set to get underway.

The inauguration of the residential quarter on Dresdner Ring was celebrated in Backnang on Friday, 07.06.24. While the finishing touches were still being applied to the four buildings, a toast to the new residential quarter was raised in the courtyard of the ensemble by all those present and invited guests. The first tenants are already moving in this week, and viewings of the apartments have been underway since the beginning of the year.
The city of Backnang is satisfied. The urban quarter on the outskirts of the city promises a lively neighborhood, creates quality outdoor space and even keeps out the noise from the nearby B14.

After the jury awarded three 1st prizes for the future W&W site at the end of 2023, the designs were finalized and sharpened again in a second phase. Even though we were not able to prevail in the second phase, we are happy to show our result.
Our article takes an in-depth look at one of the most important question questions of our time.

How do we deal with inventory and gray energy?

Carefully, is our answer. In order to create a sustainable, resource-efficient district that points the way to the future, we have oriented ourselves as closely as possible to the existing buildings. This should be transformed and used wherever the structure allows it.

We congratulate the winners of the 2nd phase.

The Brandenburg Chamber of Architects invites you to a round table discussion on building culture on site on 06.06.2024 16:00 - 19:00 in the Bernau Visitor Center. The round table is part of a joint series of events organized by the Brandenburg Chamber of Architects and Engineers.

“Buildings of high architectural quality”, as the website of the Brandenburg Chamber of Architects states, “should be presented and discussed in public”. The Bernau Visitor Center won a special prize as part of the Brandenburg Building Culture Award 2023.

The building not only has the challenging task of responding to its historical surroundings, but also of enabling various uses on a limited construction site. The event will begin with a guided tour of the site by project participants, followed by a discussion on “Building Culture on Site”.

Two results from Steimle Architekten have been published in the fifth edition of wettbewerbe aktuell. This year we were already delighted to receive two third prizes. The first was for the Innovation Campus in Stühlingen-Weizen for the Sto company, which wants to expand its campus to include research centers as well as production and workshops.

The second third prize was in an even more picturesque location, at the foot of Stolzenfels Castle, where the Middle Rhine meanders through the landscape.There, an infrastructure building in the form of an orangery was to be placed on top of the existing parking garage for visitors to the castle.

You can find both competitions hereon our website or in the new issue of wettbewerbe aktuell.

The construction of the new campus extension at Nuremberg Institute of Technology is progressing in leaps and bounds. In addition to the final work on the petrol-colored façade, the roof and interior work is also being carried out. A great deal of technology is needed for the various innovative research activities. The technical equipment and interior fittings for the planned test halls, workshops, laboratories, offices and seminar rooms are making progress every day.

The anticipation of the upcoming flooring work and the resulting room impression is great! Stay tuned for more pictures...

Now that the finishing work has been completed, the calm and transparency that the building radiates on the outside with its white slatted cladding can also be felt on the inside. The white-coated railings harmonize with the louvre panels used, the light-coloured seating forms a symbiosis with the space and the restrained textile elements ensure a subtle use of color in the room.

The press releaseexplains how SWR is moving into the new building during ongoing operations.

Here are a few details to whet your appetite for more...

Just behind Koblenz, the district of Stolzenfels is located directly on the Rhine. For many years, a worthy reception building for Stolzenfels Castle, which is enthroned on the hills, has been under consideration.The access roads of the Middle Rhine Valley lead directly through the district, so that a few years ago a parking level for visitors to the castle was built directly on the main road.An orangery is now to be built on this park building as a reception building for the castle.
We are delighted to have been awarded 3rd prize for this wonderful project.
