Drafts Design Challenge

A diverse, colorful concept that brings people together: affordable living in a modern wooden modular building combined with a roof garden of the future. Residents can sustainably breed fish and meet at varied locations.

Parallel modules on three floors are accessed in the interior by a suspended staircase. The building is enclosed by a climate envelope. The roof consists of partially openable, monocrystalline glass-glass modules. There is a green fire wall in the interior facing the adjacent building.

Two uniform modules are stacked on top of each other. Offsets and rotations create spaces for access and common areas. The aim is to create a social fabric between the neighbors beyond the individual living space.

A climate cover is placed around the top of the building. This is rasterized by wooden beams and can be opened and closed as required by vertical glass slats. There are no limits to the variety of residents, as there are both single and double modules that are suitable for almost every type of resident.

Mini-modules with different arrangements per floor create exciting spaces that can be used collectively within the climate envelope. Generous communal kitchens, sports and work areas promote a stronger coexistence in the neighborhood.

A roof terrace, plenty of space for community and barrier-free apartments create the basis for a strong community between the residents. The apartments offer the necessary privacy.

17 modules are stacked to create 15 apartments for residents of all age groups as well as community space. People can come together on the roof terrace and plant their own vegetables. The whole structure is surrounded by a climate shell that adapts to the weather and generates energy from solar radiation.
