Eckwerk announced as finalist for WAF Award 2016

We are very proud to announce that our project Eckwerk Holzmarkt is one of the finalist of the World Architecture Festival Awards 2016 in the category Commercial Mixed Use – Future Projects!

This year the shortlist includes 343 projects from 58 countries across 32 categories. Our submission will go on to compete against all the other entries in November. All finalists will present the projects live in front of delegates and the international jury at the World Architecture Festival in Berlin. The winners will then be announced on November 18th during the WAF Gala Dinner.

The Eckwerk project was developed in cooperation with Kleihues + Kleihues as well as GuK (Genossenschaft für urbane Kreativität). The exemplary complex of buildings seeks to find the answer to the social, economic, and ecological questions of our times. The design takes on the characteristics and qualities of the location.
