SUSTAINABLITY
Winner at monitoring competition of the Fraunhofer Institute

2011-2013

The predecessor of the office building for the INNIUS group was initially developed as a prototype for a series of energy-efficient office buildings in Aachen. The conceptual design is characterized by the comprehensive consideration of various factors of sustainability. Beyond environmental and energy aspects, the well-being of the employees and the life cycle costs are brought to the fore. In the monitoring competition of the Fraunhofer Institute, the prototype stood up as winner to the other competitors and has been awarded with several other prizes. By the constant optimization the prototype has reached a certain maturity that goes beyond the level of standard of common buildings, which remain prototypes in the end. Therefore a warranty can be given to the user for the first time. The office building is now built as second derivative. Parallel to this, even more office buildings are planned at different locations in Germany.

The building was designed and built within a construction team process. The move-in date and a fixed price were guaranteed to the clients due to the committed performance of the construction team, consisting of regional planners, craft businesses and construction companies.

A representative and central location had been found across from the Yenidze in Dresden-Friedrichstadt. The self-confident cubic building closes a gap in the urban fabric of the redevelopment area. In order to that the building developments along the Magdeburger- and Weißeritzstraße get their urban demarcation. On the opposite side the view of the green spaces of the Ostragehege is provided.

The innovative concept of the building reflects the company’s philosophy of INNIUS. The capabilities of several offices for technical building equipment within the INNUS group were joined with the slogan „Gemeinsam der Zeit voraus“. The office building accomodates both the offices of INNIUS GTD GmbH and INNIUS DÖ GmbH for the first time in one location. Aspects of communication and sustainability play a major role in the self-conception. The floors are organized according to the principle of combined offices. Communicative uses are provided in the partially open intermediate zone. It is surrounded by offices with glass walls, that provide an extensive level of natural lighting. The floors are flexible and can be adjusted subsequently using simple methods. It is also possible to disconnect entire floors or only some parts of it as independent functional units. The common meeting area with a spacious roof terrace is located in the penthouse level. Electrochromatic glass is being used as sunblinds in the conference room.

The largely standardized façade is made of non-bearing clay bricks. The possibility of creating a theme with the façade is provided due to the use of two different shades and the definition of the brick as a pixel. A cloud motif is projected onto the whole building to add an emotional aspect to the rationality of the design.
