The conversion of an existing barn creates new commercial spaces for a tree nursery in Neuenstein, Germany. The sensitive integration of new functions into an existing structure reduces the consumption of resources and energy. The building takes on a new role within its context, continues the history of the family business and strengthens the identity of the down-to-earth horticultural company.
The plus-energy project emphasizes sustainability through several key strategies. It maximizes the reuse of existing resources and reduces the carbon footprint by minimizing heated areas.
