Within a tight financial framework, the integral planning had the task of realizing a low-energy construction method for a factory building. Special significance was attached to the choice of natural building materials (wood) and a favourable overall energy balance of manufacturing and operating energy. Roof glazing ensures daylight for illuminating the workplace. The building is ventilated via an underground heat exchanger with the waste air being channelled over the roof and heat recovery in the form of an integrated circulation system. The shape, orientation and design of the shed encourage natural ventilation. The goal is to dispense with the use of ventilators as far as possible. Solar collectors facilitate heating and the provision of hot water by short-distance heat.
