First 22·26 building in Germany!
Professor Gerd Jäger, head of our Berlin office, recently took the microphone. The occasion was a happy one: the foundation stone for the Kornelius Forum in Berlin's Wedding district was laid in the presence of church and local celebrities. Even more pleasing: "This new building is the first building in Germany to be constructed according to the 22·26 principle," explains Gerd Jäger.
The climate-friendly new building largely manages almost without heating, mechanical ventilation and cooling. The name is derived from the feel-good temperature of 22 to 26 degrees Celsius. This building design method significantly reduces construction and energy costs. A particularly long service life and recyclability as a contribution to climate-friendly construction are guaranteed.
The administrative office is expected to move in by 2025 on a site where the Kornelius church and a kindergarten are located, with apartments on the fourth floor and a café and seminar rooms on the first floor of the 4,634 m² gross floor area.
The new building impresses with its clear order and the rhythm of closed and open wall surfaces. The exterior walls are made of solid brickwork and red-colored scratched plaster, which is created using traditional craftsmanship. Narrow, floor-to-ceiling windows, hinged on the inside of the wall, lend the building a special plasticity and identity. Configured as a solitaire in terms of urban planning, it is the appropriateness, authenticity and statement that give the building its special value.
Christoph Stäblein, Bishop of the Evangelical Church of Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia (EKBO), also explained the relationship of Principle 22·26 to the church's faith at the laying of the foundation stone: "It will be a thoroughly climate-friendly building for all generations. This shows how, true to the biblical mandate - to cultivate and preserve the earth - we want to bring it into harmony with creation today."
