Q1 2021

37 Q1 2021 BUILD Q1 2021 BUILD that there is a whole new market opened up, have intrinsically connected the energy consumption in a building such as a pro- duction facility with the energy requirements of the building itself. The synergistic effects hidden or contain here – people talk of energy efficiency due to process heat – represent huge amounts of previously untapped potential for greater efficiency and cost reduction. In addition, these measures are heavily subsidised, which can serve to make things even more interest- ing than before. Industrial buildings generally manufacture cer- tain products and require large amount of energy for production, or special hygienic conditions which often exceed the energy requirements of the building many times over. Architekturbüro therefore believes that it can best help these entrepreneurs by helping this sector increase efficiency through process optimi- sation, saving costs and reducing CO2. A good climate inside a building has nothing to do with expen- sive building technology. Some of the world’s most ancient cultures that date back thousands of years in hot countries mastered ventilation technologies for cool and pleasant interiors. Knowledge has largely been lost due to the techni- cal improvements made in air conditioning systems, because structural deficits can often by compensated for. Architekturbüro and Dr Englhardt believes that many problems can be solved structurally and simply. In recent years, it has classified different problems within typologies, and combine them in a targeted manner before integrating them into every project. Ultimately, the work of Architekturbüro is more important than ever before, especially at a time when raw materials are becoming more and more valuable whilst an awareness of developing of how to treat the environment. Holistic energy saving means cash for the entrepreneur, but also a boost for its image and the environment around it. People are becoming more critical, and that’s a good thing. Only a sustainable prod- uct can survive in this market, and architecture can make some serious contributions here. Architekturbüro and Dr Englhardt have sought to provide answers to society as to how sustain- able living can be made even easier, and they have achieved excellence in that pursuit.
