The jury decided on 02.11.2023: ASTOC’s entry was convincing across the board and thus won against strong, well-known competition. We are delighted with this further success and our sixth first prize this year! <\/p>

Our contribution is guided by the idea of not only enabling the desired address formation within a heterogeneous environment, but also responding to the existing urban structures of the neighboring buildings. The urban integration is achieved by continuing the neighboring building heights, increasing the massing towards the west with a staggering of up to seven storeys and moving the lower four storeys towards Breslauer Platz in order to strengthen the integration with the public space. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The prestigious entrance on Breslauer Platz provides access to all office floors via a light-flooded foyer, as well as small-scale retail, service outlets and restaurants on the first floor. A second foyer on Domstrasse provides further vertical access to office space on the upper floors. The office working environments follow the New Work approach with a spatial offer for concentration, interaction and relaxation in order to support dialogue and team-oriented ways of working with a fundamentally variable space layout. A green inner courtyard visually connects the work areas and provides them with natural light. Four large gardens and loggia at the roof level offer a spectacular view of the cathedral and extend the working environment to the outside. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Our planning pursues an exceptioanlly sustainable outcome, incorporating circular economy principles, as a zero-energy building with considerable undercutting of the legal requirements for heat and electricity demand and through an energy supply based on renewable sources with geothermal heat pumps and photovoltaics.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
