Services

We plan urban nature for green buildings, neighborhoods, cities

Our interdisciplinary team of architects, landscape architects, biologists, and designers brings greenery to buildings. Whether it's facade or roof greening, roof gardens, green interiors, or urban structures.

With networked know-how, comprehensive technical expertise, and market knowledge, we develop the best greening solution for your project—holistic, manufacturer-independent, and cost-optimized. Solutions are found through intensive work at the interfaces between architecture and open space, science, and urban planning.

Climate-sensitive building

Our planning takes climate change into account. Climate-adapted construction can protect people and buildings, improve the urban climate, and mitigate climate risks. Already during the planning phase, we can use GREENPASS simulation models to quantify these effects for specific projects.

What we can

do for you

Consulting

We provide advice and support for all types of green building projects. Regardless of the service phase, we offer expert guidance on topics such as system selection, plant selection, maintenance, statics, fire protection, irrigation technology, access and safety technology, etc.

Feasibility studies

We create feasibility studies specifically for your greening project, providing you with a reliable cost estimate in addition to constructive and design-related decision-making templates.

Specialist planning

As a specialist planning office, we work manufacturer-independent and offer all service phases in accordance with German HOAI.
In doing so, we bridge the gap between building construction and landscape architecture and keep all the requirements for the positive development of building greening in mind.
These range from visual design, plant physiological requirements, structural engineering characteristics, and complex construction requirements to building regulations and approval requirements.

We are GREENPASS Partners and optimize the planning process with regard to climate adaptation, water consumption, energy savings, etc., based on simulation models.

Certification

We certify your project according to the GREENPASS System and evaluate your project in terms of the EU Taxonomy and the European Sustainability Goals.
