grabowski.spork architektur is designing "The Change," Eschborn, Germany's first timber-hybrid high-rise office building, on behalf of PE Merhenthaler GmbH—a joint venture between Bauwens and Ampure, two of Germany's largest property development companies. The project's BIM process exemplifies how these smart digital workflows contribute to exceptional design outcomes.
Innovation in Sustainable Design
The architectural firm values the innovative use of materials. This project integrates wood and concrete to create a hybrid superstructure. Concrete is predominantly used for the building's foundation and access core, while wood replaces concrete on the upper floors, chosen for its structural qualities and to reduce the building's carbon footprint. This combination not only benefits the environment but also enhances the interior, creating a welcoming and comfortable workspace.
