2nd Prize, 4-stage competition over 1.5 years for circular housing with reuse of building components, MF05, Basel

We are proud to announce that we have been awarded Second Prize in the open architectural competition for a new residential development at the Wolf Areal in Basel, Switzerland.

The project features a ten-story residential development that champions the reuse of building components. Its core mission is to bring diverse family constellations back into the city center through flexible, community-oriented architecture that adapts to evolving urban needs.

A huge thank you to our fantastic team for a year and a half of outstanding collaboration and hard work!
