The Stuttgarter Wochenblatt provides information about the district house in Stammheim, which is being built on the former site of the fire station and community center. The building is regarded as a pilot project by the city of Stuttgart for building-integrated photovoltaics. Parts of the white metal façade and the roof will be covered with photovoltaic panels. The façade, which is lined with slats, will later generate a lively interplay of light and shadow both from the outside and the inside.
The Markolfhalle in Markelfingen on Lake Constance has been shortlisted for the German Timber Construction Award. We are delighted with the award for the multi-purpose hall.

On Friday, 16.05.25, the topping-out ceremony was celebrated at the Stadtteilhaus in Stammheim. The people of Stammheim came to the first inspection of the new meeting place in the center of the district. The new citizens' café will soon open on the ground floor as a meeting place for young and old. The first floor offers group rooms for clubs. A citizens' hall is being built in the wooden roof truss of the building, which will seat over 150 people. The Zimmermanns celebrated the erection of this roof on Friday, traditionally with a ceremonial speech, topping-out ceremony and glass throwing.
The construction site of the State Office for Schools in Gunzenhausen is in process.
The exposed concrete walls and the wooden pillars on the ground floor have already been installed and the room dimension are now visible. Currently they are working on the ceiling above the first floor. Work has started on the concrete beams along the corridors and inner courtyards. With the help of prestressed concrete ceilings, the meeting rooms next to the courtyard can be constructed without columns. Once the reinforced concrete beams have been constructed, the timber beams are mounted and the ceiling elements are laid on top. To create the bond between the timber and concrete, timber connectors are screwed into the timber beams from above and cast with the in-situ concrete.
The upper floors are constructed in the same style.
We are looking forward to the moment, we can see the whole volume of the building.
The new Holzbau Atlas Berlin-Brandenburg is being expanded to include national projects and will be published on April 7, 2025 with projects from all over Germany. Our multi-purpose hall in Markelfingen on Lake Constance is also included. We are delighted to be part of the Holzbau Atlas. You can take a look at the Holzbau Atlas DE here.

Our institute building for the HTWG Konstanz is entering phase 5. We are planning the laboratory building in the second row on the Rhine with a new look, densely populated with photovoltaics in light green tone. Its neighbors already form the prelude to the university campus on the waterfront. With campus utilities in the pants - aka in the basement - and technology on the main floor, the construction site will start in October this year. However, it will still be a few years before the laboratory in wood and green is complete. Until then we are already enjoying the view of Lake Constance and the Alps.
