Alexander Brenner «A holistic approach»

  • Alexander Brenner Architekten, Stuttgart | www.alexanderbrenner.de
  •  
  • “Since we always take on the complete range of services for all our projects, i.e., architecture, interior design, technical integration and planning of all built-in furniture, we have the opportunity to implement our concept of sustainability at all levels. We plan with a contemporary approach and strive for timelessness, as I believe that the longevity of design, construction, materials and products is the most sustainable way of economic activity.” Alexander Brenner, Dipl.-Ing. Freier Architekt BDA

Annelen Schmidt-Vollenbroich & Ana Vollenbroich «The bathroom in domestic culture»

  • Nidus Studio, Düsseldorf | www.nidus-studio.com
  •  
  • “The evolution of the bathroom in domestic culture is recounted with the help of built examples. For this, Nidus projects in particular, both renovation projects and projects in listed buildings, are presented. Details are provided on how the bathroom design is based on the history of the house and how contemporary bathrooms are developed from this. The focus is on questions such as: which design features characterise the respective architecture of the time, how does a new concept work and which materials and products are used.” Annelen Schmidt-Vollenbroich & Ana Vollenbroich

  • “For us interior designers, the goal is that people feel comfortable in the rooms we design. The ideal interplay of technology, function and design makes up the feel-good character of a room. Integrating and hiding the technical necessities as discreetly as possible often presents us with great challenges.” Barbara Runggatscher, Senior Interior Designer, Leiterin Interior Design

  • “Climate protection is the key issue of our time! How can we achieve this in the building sector, given that every building project is individual, space requirements are noticeably increasing and demanding building users do expect thermal comfort not only in the increasingly hot summers?” Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Markus Pfeil
