Details
As part of the IBA'27 exhibition, Germany's largest circular timber parking garage was built in Wendlingen am Neckar. The building's materiality, flexibility and circularity make it highly sustainable. The large floor height and the absence of columns allow a future conversion of the parking garage into a residential or work environment with a beautiful, naturally lit courtyard. In case the building needs to be demolished in the future, the materials can be separated and thus reused, as no composite materials were used.
