Our Objectives

Architects and engineers face an enormous challenge today:
On the global scale - an increased shortage of energy resources, the growing impact of climate change, demands in the area of healthy and ecological living
On the local scale - new laws and standards that need to be implemented, increasing demands of clients, a growing competition within the building trade

In both cases an architectural design that succeeds in integrating the principles of sustainability is the solution. Sustainability is here the crucial feature of sustainable architecture.

The Center for Conceptual Architecture has positioned itself as a leader in the international research, implementation and continuing education of sustainability in architecture. Our center gives you access to the expertise needed to realize successful sustainable architecture projects.
