Excellent Architecture

Details
The global problem of trade fair waste, which often cannot be recycled, inspired us to design a stand based on the cradle-to-cradle principle. This involves using only single-origin materials that can be returned to the cycle without loss. Our stand consisted of recyclable aluminium tubes, Trevira CS and certified spruce wood, which were reused after the event. By not using a floor, we saved 7.0 tons of material and over 99% of the 10.2 tons of materials were C2C recyclable - only 30 kg of recyclable waste was generated.
The Jury‘s Statement
The exhibition stand, which was designed consistently according to the cradle-to-cradle principle and is almost completely reusable, makes a significant contribution to reducing exhibition waste. “Have sun, live circularity!” shows how sustainable architecture that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing can be realized through the use of single-origin materials. A convincing statement!
