Sustainable deployment ensemble. Walldorf rescue center.
The new Walldorf rescue center is a forward-looking ensemble of fire station, DRK and logistics hall that combines functionality, sustainability and architectural quality. The design combines efficient processes with a clear, identity-creating design and blends harmoniously into the urban context. Existing structures are integrated in a resource-conserving manner and complemented by modern, environmentally friendly construction methods.
Project data
Uniform architecture and natural materials create a harmonious relationship with the surroundings. The fire department is compact and efficiently organized, while the DRK continues to use the existing building in a resource-saving manner. Communal areas and a roof terrace promote interaction and cohesion.
To conserve resources, existing elements such as concrete and brickwork are recycled and reused in the new building. This is complemented by a timber frame construction and large-scale photovoltaic systems, which minimize CO₂ emissions and reduce operating costs.
A heat pump system provides environmentally friendly heating for the fire station. It uses natural energy sources efficiently and can also supply other buildings via a local heating network.
Photovoltaic systems on roofs generate a large proportion of the electricity required themselves. They reduce CO₂ emissions, lower operating costs and can contribute to energy self-sufficiency.
