Weissenseer- floating house
During an excursion to the place where our house is prefabricated, we visited a remarkable example of innovation. The exchange of ideas with Dutch visitors led to a new use of ancient carpenters‘ know-how.

It is cheap, ecological and available
In a series of public meetings we discuss specific themes to generate input for our research project. The first of these “Echo Spaces” was on the topic of organic isolation materials. We discussed in particular the use and possibilities of straw.

Mountains don’t have cardboard
The post-use phase of a building: It is mostly a matter of quick demolishment and dumping the ‘waste’. The experts on the matter explain that it has to do with time and money. At the moment it is for instance much cheaper to make plasterboard by carving the gypsum from a mountain, than by recycling…

Understanding built climate neutrality
We visit Transsolar KlimaEngineering to learn about climate assessments and a building’s life cycle.

Berge sind kartonfrei
Die Nachnutzungsphase eines Gebäudes: Meist geht es um den schnellen Abriss und die Deponierung des „Mülls“. Das habe mit Zeit und Geld zu tun, erklären die Expert*innen. Im Moment ist es beispielsweise viel billiger, Gipskartonplatten herzustellen, indem man neuen Gips aus einem Berg schürft, als alte Materialien zu recyceln. Wie können wir in unserem Gebäude…

Applying biobased materials
Excursion to the House of Learning to study the application of biobased materials. Walls are made of wood frames filled with straw and plastered with mud. Even the elevator shaft is made of wood.

Numbers and their meaning
What is a tonne of CO₂? Is it much, little, big, small? The experts of IBO, the Austrian Institute for Building and Ecology help to figure things out. As a team we try to get a grip on how climate neutral our building is.

A German example of an innovative energy supply concept
A visit to learn from an almost climate neutral multi-use city district near Stuttgart.

Keeping grip on the process as a team
While visiting a project in Germany we learn how important it is to keep grip on the process as a whole team.
-
Different numbers – different perspectives
In order to learn from existing best practices we went to Germany to see how things are done there. But there is a difference in the numbers Germans and Austrians use.
-
Comparing alternatives to see what works best
In this research project RWT plus brings in their knowledge on building physics. Four construction alternatives will be assessed on their performance with regard to climate neutrality.

Building in wood in Munich
To learn from others we have visited different projects in Germany. There are similar rules with regard to building in wood as what we apply in our project in Vienna.
