A solution never seen before: discarded membrane panels, previously used as banners for the Stuttgart 21 construction site, have been given a second life as a membrane roof, thus entering a new material cycle. In close collaboration with students, both the roof’s form and the concept for the detailed connections were developed and refined.

This project is a strong example of circular economy in practice: materials remain in use for longer, resources are conserved, and at the same time an architectural statement for sustainability in the urban environment is created.

PUBLISHED: BauNetz reports on the construction site visit at the Museum Historische Oberamteistraße in Reutlingen.

“In Reutlingen, a city history museum is currently being built that will exhibit itself. It is moving into two half-timbered houses from the 14th century. They were threatened with demolition, but now wulf architekten together with str.ucture are realizing an adjacent timber extension that will provide structural support. Our author visited the construction site.”

NOMINATED: The multipurpose hall in Ingerkingen has been nominated for the German Sustainability Award for Architecture!
It is among the ten nominated building projects from across Germany that demonstrate how construction today can be sustainable, future-oriented, and aesthetically compelling.

We’re thrilled to be part of this amazing team and extend our warmest congratulations to all project partners! Our heartfelt thanks to the jury for this honor!

CONSTRUCTION SITE: Tomorrow, the topping-out ceremony for the multi-purpose hall in Korntal-Münchingen will take place. A major milestone on the construction site: the shell is complete!

After many months of intensive work, we're excited to meet everyone involved at the celebration and raise a glass to our successful collaboration.

With a clear span of 15 meters and a height of 6 meters, the "Castanea Sativa Hypar" is currently the largest roof structure made from sweet chestnut wood. The geodesic form of the timber grid shell, consisting of a saddle surface, represents an efficient and resource-conserving way to span large distances with minimal material use. The roof shape of the shell is based on an anticlastic, hexagonal topology, stabilized by an interwoven cross-bracing system.

This past weekend, the new Childcare Center Hinter Höfe in Mössingen was officially opened. This spacious two-storey full-day childcare center provides room for up to 124 children.
A special highlight: from the second floor, a slide leads directly into the garden – sure to spark joy!
