High-Rise Concept: The four main elements of the exterior and interior facade, ramp and cube intermesh and form a systematically structured form: Both facades are rolled and form two tubes, one with a 21-meter radius and the other a 26-meter radius. The gap is accessible through both a car and bike ramp. The inner opening has a diameter of 42 meters and, due to the 48 cubes hanging from the facade, creates an exciting interplay that can be experinced by the users. The volumes of the cubes vary between 63, 93, 123, 153 and 183 m3, depending on function and room program: 6er Cube: 9er Cube: 12er Cube: 15er Cube: 18er Cube:
Car Washing and Turning Cube 2er Office, Bar, Restaurant, Conference Atelier Television, Sound, Photo Studio and Cinema Sport
The room program is accesed over a ramp, in addition with Parking, available via the elevators. In case of fire, one also escapes the building via a spiral staircase that runs counter to the car ramp. A spatial relationship is created by the main facades of the cubes. This creates both an exciting interior as well as a outdoor space with very straightforward structural means.

Bachelor´s Thesis Concept: We set ourselves the task of a complex architectural solution composed of shopping, sports, entertainment and parking. It was important for us to find a sustainable and viable concept that plays a key role in the development of the entire dock area. In doing so, we placed great emphasis on optimally linking the university campus and the surrounding areas. Residential buildings in conjunction with a meaningful and pronounced connection to the existing transport infrastructure. The four focal points of the project are; shopping, sports, entertainment and parking should create an overall coherent context in form and function. This task creates a special challenge and excitement, as each function stands alone in its own right, therefor a unifying architectural solution and approach is required. Our job was to join different requirements and needs, in one coherent and comprehensible proposal. We see these tasks solved with an urban planning concept. We see the basement and ground floor levels as considerably different from each other.

A connection to the different functions is provided via underground tunnels, which also serve as escape routes. The fact that we have followed the concept “wall-to-wall�, main and side rooms are at first glance recognized as a whole. When one enters the property, a main function is to be perceived by its glass facade, on the other hand, the visitor rooms remain hidden for the time being. Between the main functions on the ground floor level arise free spaces. Skylights above the corridors lead the user of the building safely from main function to main function.
Within the basement, the entire property is built. Main features such as a swimming and sports hall, offices, cinema, fitness center and kindergartens are enclosed by the adjoining rooms, such as changing rooms, toilets, kitchens and warehouses.

Hospital Concept: The direct environment of the clinic can be considered as an interface between ordered and disordered structures. The building should serve as a transition and a connecting element of these two areas. The basic idea is a clinic with a zoning system planned inside. The system is divided into a public area, a private area and a medical area. In the public area there is a large foyer, which serves the hospital and the hotel as entrance and waiting room. In the private sector, all units of the clinic are found, such as examination and treatment, modular operating rooms and resting areas. In the medical sector, the staff of the clinic have their own independent occupancy zone, from which they can reach all premises without restrictions. Regularly arranged courtyards allow light exposure and ventilation within the building. The roof is made of a wooden frame construction with squared timber faces leaning to the landscaped courtyards. Above the courtyards, the roof is not covered and therefore ensures the drainage of rainwater. Timber slats on the front of the building and in the courtyard area serve as supporting structures. Horizontal forces are derived via the Brickwork. It is important to us to ensure a moderate climate within the clinic. To do so we designed a loose structure which creates a visual relationship between inside and outside. The open lamellar structure on the front of the building achieves such openness.

Office Building Concept: The building measures 66 x 66 x 66 meters and is located in Berlin, on the Kaiserdamm. The cube-shaped figure of the building sets the challenge to create deep floor plans, all of which have to be of high quality. Entering the building, one can see the complexity of voids, that are not only in the two-dimensional plane on the outer facade, but interlock throughout the building. These voids serve firstly to enlarge the building´s surface, which allows us to direct light to the deepest points of the building. In addition, the cutouts create both a visual relationship between the individual sections of the building, as well as a better air passage. Finally, the voids are used as common areas, which are accessible through selected floors. The voids are accessible by means of escalators. For further possible development of the building and its accessibility, it contains four staircases and eight elevators. The floor plans follow the principle “wall-to-wall” in order to achieve maximum utilization of the floor space. The ratio of the used floor area to the plot area, which is 66m², is 0.85. It features housing, office, entertainment, public space, and schools.

Culinary Art School Concept: My submission is located in lower Manhattan, Edgar Street, New York. The Culinary Art College is positioned between Greenwich Street and Trinity Plaza and lies over Edgar Street, narrowing down on the street island at the meeting point of Greenwich Street and Trinity Plaza. My design especially deals with the actual street layout and public pedestrian movement on sight. The design considers preserving Edgar Street moving through the building. Adding the function for food delivery in the building, coming from Edgar Street. My program layers horizontally, starting with the largest units in the basement under street level. Here the library and larger storage space, as well as parts of the restaurant, are located providing a more private and introverted space to the overall program. The first floor is characterized by very open and translucent units that mainly directs to the public. The first floor inhabits entrance areas, the restaurant, a lounge, as well as the demonstration and the patisserie kitchens show case units that serve to give the visitor an impression of what the culinary arts college stands for. Public areas connect by a ramp that starts in the entrance area and guides the visitor through the building. The second floor is characterized as the exclusive teaching areas and is not accessible for the public. The entire floor is elevated above the first floor and connects over the building cores. The cores itself are reserved for staff and students, as well as transporting food delivered from Edgar Street, as well as students from kitchens, library and restaurant to their private lounge. The inner program works as a building for itself and is covered by a folded metal shell. The shells´ structure and the inner program work together as a unit. The folded metal shell provides a semi-conditioned climate, as well as light. Every north facing metal plate is glazed and provides natural light to the inner program.

Master´s Thesis Concept: It’s supposed to be a school alike to a village. With a main square, side streets and paths, sunny, shady and rain protected public and private outdoor spaces. Classrooms, which include the Kindergarten to Grade 9 on different levels, allow for concentrated and trouble-free work. The students grow up for 11 years together and thus learn the art of collaboration. Sports fields and arcades are designed to motivate students and encourage their movement, thereby learning is positively influenced. Illiterate classes are offered to fight the high illiteracy rate before students devote themselves to specialized education. This allows many illiterates a new start in life and opens many opportunities for independent living. A cafeteria should provide a healthy diet. It is available, not just for students, but for all people suffering from hunger by providing healthy meals. In addition to the food, the cafeteria also offers a central location for meetings and communication, which enhances the campus feeling. A clinic ensures the health of students and teachers. A regular general exam is an important step towards a productive and healthy life. A library gives all students and teachers the opportunity to continue their education. Local citizens are also welcome to expand their knowledge base. In addition, the library is an appropriate place of retreat for concentration. Free and social rooms are used for relaxation, inspiration and the improvement of social relations and communication. The teacher complex achieves better collaboration between the Administration, Teachers, and Students. A bus system makes it easier to reach the school safely. The campus should unite all areas of work and life.
