We are very excited to host the next L’ignite Timber Construction Roundtable here in Stuttgart. We will share insights into how “continuous construction” is evolving into a systemic and integrative practice that bridges the gap between craftsmanship and civil engineering, thereby offering a scalable approach for future construction projects.

We’ll start with a field trip to the Museum Historische Oberamteistraße in Reutlingen. Afterward, the roundtable will take place here in Stuttgart: Look forward to an exciting evening event featuring presentations, discussions, and networking. We’ll wrap up the evening with a barbecue together on our rooftop terrace.

Tomorrow, the 16th Baustatik – Baupraxis Conference will begin at TU Dresden (Dresden University of Technology). Two exciting presentations from our team are on the agenda:

Thursday, May 28, 2026, 11:00 a.m.
“Form Finding and Optimization of Complex Timber Structures”
Julian Lienhard and Benedikt Neubauer

Friday, May 29, 2026, 11:00 a.m.
“From Archive to Application: Data-Driven Structural Design in Practice”
Sami Bidier will present together with Sebastian Gagesch and Markus Hennecke from the ZM-I Group in Munich.

We are delighted to receive the Federal Award for Environment & Building for the project “Multi-Purpose Hall Ingerkingen.” The award is presented by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment and the German Environment Agency (UBA). It was awarded by Federal Environment Minister Carsten Schneider in Berlin.

In addition, the project “Historic Oberamteistraße” was honored last night with the Baden-Württemberg Timber Construction Award in Friedrichshafen. The Baden-Württemberg Timber Construction Award 2026 is organized under the umbrella of the Timber Construction Initiative Baden-Württemberg and under the patronage of the Ministry of Food, Rural Affairs and Consumer Protection of Baden-Württemberg.

Both projects demonstrate the tremendous potential of working with existing buildings and advancing sustainable timber construction.

This year’s annual str.weekend took us to the beautiful Black Forest. Full of great conversations, new perspectives, and quality time together!

What a special evening, we’re delighted to have received two awards for our projects:
Together with wulf architekten, we were awarded the special prize in the category ‘Building in Existing Contexts’ for the Museum Historische Oberamteistraße.
The Ingerkingen multi-purpose hall was also recognized in the same category, receiving an honorable mention in collaboration with Atelier Kaiser Shen Architekten PartGmbB.
