The people of Freising are fed up. For far too long, cars have come first in the decisions governing mobility and infrastructure in their local area. Now, things are about to change.

Bike Referendum Freising

actively advocates for a reform in transport policies and a traffic turnaround. Of course, the IFUB* is supporting this project!

An ornate, landmark farmhouse - historically protected, in a panoramic location just outside Munich. A new concept to do justice to the building, its history, and its setting. Historical building materials and ecological construction techniques guiding the renovation and restoration, and clients - directly descended from the original contractor and with a special bond to the building - to wholeheartedly take on the challenge. Here, dedication and idealism were required at every turn. After much problem-solving, creative thinking, and countless small and large solutions, the result is clear to see: The

estate in Unterföhring shines once more.

Urban infill done well? Anyone who has ever dared venture into Munich's suburbs knows that architectural quality is rarely a factor in space rededication and infill developments. But what about an environmentally friendly timber complex? In the project

Hausfuchs

the IFUB * demonstrates how you can, in fact, have infill, ecology, and top-quality architecture all under one roof (or under four roofs, to be precise).

Small changes, big impact — that was the task at

office improuv.

In their newly-rented accommodations, the wall, doors, ceilings, and floors were designated off-limits, yet the corporate culture of the agile consultancy group was to be made recognizable at a glance. With just a bucket of paint, solid built-in units, and a few fresh furnishings, great things can be achieved in the shortest time.

Young and talented new employees are highly sought after by today’s medium-sized companies. In the constant battle with the big industry players, it is no longer enough to locate a new institute in a hip university city—the architecture and working conditions on offer must also exceed that of the competition. REHAU AG rose to this challenge when it opened the competition for a new commercial and office building on a recently purchased building plot in Bayreuth. The competition entry

Rehau One House,

created by WÜRSCHINGER Architects in cooperation with the IFUB *, the landscape architects of atelier le balto, and urbanist Dr. Rainer Johann, was awarded the

1st Prize.

The idea that Bavarians and Berliners don’t always see eye to eye doesn’t just come from big politics. This makes the example set by Sauspiel GmbH - who very successfully combine the best of both worlds - all the more admirable. The (digital) future of the traditional, Bavarian card game "Schafkopf" is being written in Berlin, at the new

Sauspiel Office.

In a balancing act between north and south, Berlin and Bavaria, modernity and tradition, chocolate factory and brezel bakery, the IFUB* were on hand to help shape a fitting architectural environment.

Designing a new building for the district administration offices (Landratsamt) in the historic town Neustadt a. d. Waldnaab - in short

LANEW

- required a meticulous attention to detail regarding a sympathetic integration with existing architecture. As part of the design competition, not only was a gateway between the old town and the landmarked "New Castle" to be created, but also a seamless transition between the development and the rest of its surroundings. A cautious and respectful approach combined with self-confident concepts therefore guided the design.

A new addition to a family home is cause for celebration. But suddenly, when the previously luxurious apartment becomes a bit too small for the now family-of-5, renovations are on the cards. That's why, in

apartment C,

not only was one room made into two, but the whole apartment redesigned and made fit for the next two decades.

At the historically protected, single-family dwelling

HAUS KIRSTEN,

an air of tension is stirred up between contemporary, modern interior architecture and monument-orientated restoration.

A simple approach. A straight forward assembly. The slick design of the
