Laufs Engineering Design (‘LED’) is a building consultancy
with a focus on structures, façade engineering and
specialty design. We believe in the unity of architecture,
sustainability and structural engineering, focusing
towards one single integrated design approach.
A structure can never stand independently from its
cultural context. It is not stability bracing we deliver,
but establishing space. In that sense, engineering
first and foremost can be understood as an expressive
contribution to our cities and the environment we live in.
While we embrace the use of new materials, complex
geometry and most up-to-date three- dimensional
software, we understand such technology as a tool,
not as content in itself.
We work globally. Both urgent contemporary questions
as well as a true joy for design exchange is best informed
by an international platform of backgrounds, work and
education. LED is limitless in its search of form-finding,
detailing and identity of space.
