09/24: New Project in Paretz, Havel Landscape, together with Atelier Fanelsa

studio erde has been commissioned to design the outdoor spaces for the new firebrigade building in the historic village center of Paretz. The new building receives a biological facade crafted from reed structures. Building on this material concept and drawing inspiration from the Havel landscape and its anthropogenic transformations, the design process will investigate the aesthetics of grey-water filtration and its atmospheric qualities. The goal is to create a multifunctional and ecological space that seamlessly integrates with the surrounding landscape.
