Project Narrative
The building has no heating, ventilation or cooling system, the flow of energy being controlled by software. Above all, however, this is a stone building with walls, doors and high-ceilinged rooms. It needs little grey energy, and elementary architectural means are used to create a sense of well-being that derives from the pleasant proportions and self-explanatory use. The constructional and energy-related foundations needed to achieve this effect illustrate the know-how bebaumschlagereberle has built up over 28 years. The envelope has a cavity wall structure with each wall consisting of 36-ce
