“NEUGIER - Wer nicht fragt bleibt dumm“ (”If you don't ask, you stay stupid") is written on the cover of the latest issue of POLIS magazine and Eike Becker is one of the people interviewed.

At this year's polis Award 2024, our RockyWood office building was awarded 2nd prize in the “Ecological Reality” category, ahead of the Roots timber high-rise in Hamburg and behind the Grünling-Weleda Cradle Campus in Schwäbisch-Gmünd.

On 29 February 2024, the 2nd URBAN TIMBER: Timber Pioneer Frankfurt event will take place, a fascinating opportunity to explore the future of building with timber in urban environments. This unique event brings together the construction industry, project development and timber construction experts.

High-rise buildings are visible from afar, provide orientation in the urban context and generally offer impressive views.

Johanna Meyer-Grohbrügge and Petra Wörner also spoke and discussed in the large hall of the German National Library.

Eike Becker is an architect and one of the co-authors of the pamphlet "Es ist höchste Zeit" (It's high time), which was presented in March 2023 and denounces grievances in the real estate industry. The conclusion was: The real estate industry must change quickly and radically - in its thinking and in its actions. And that also applies to the construction industry, as Becker emphasizes. His article in the ABZ is intended to stimulate discussion.

An appeal to results-based pragmatism with less mechanical technology but smartphone-assisted user accountability.

In the crisis, major parts of the industry are in danger of disappearing, explains Eike Becker, architect and co-author of the ZIA Innovation Think Tanks' polemic "Es ist höchste Zeit". He calls on the industry to give up its victim mentality and seek constructive dispute. Eike Becker.

"Urban development, mobility, sustainability, density, social building, modular building, cradle-to-cradle, the organization of collaboration and approval processes may experience a big boost through AI and move forward benefitting everyone."

During a colonoscopy, just before fainting, I hear the doctor in a good mood: " Ah, there's the AI reporting, there is something else I missed! Poof, it's gone!" That was a year ago. 

The FAZ Tower embodies a unique fusion of architectural brilliance and ecological responsibility. The latest images by photographer Jens Willebrand provide an insight into the new home of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

The Rocky Wood project, located at the port of Offenbach, celebrates the stacking ceremony eleven months after the start of construction.

We are nominated for the EUROPEAN REAL ESTATE BRAND AWARD 2023. For 15 years, the Real Estate Brand Institute has empirically evaluated the positioning of corporate brands in all relevant sub-sectors and asset classes in Europe. With the inclusion in the shortlist of the category "Architects" we are listed as one of 3 architectural firms in Germany. The basis for the selection of the nominees is a preliminary analysis - the largest scientific brand study of the real estate industry in Europe.

"We need faster progress and greater achievements. It is the responsibility of the real estate industry to make sure society lives in the world it wants to live in."

Our project Kennedy, directly on Kennedyallee is on the final straight. The facade is beginning to take shape.

On Tuesday, the foundation stone for our office project THE-B was laid at Revaler Straße 32 in Berlin-Friedrichshain. A 6-story office building is being built on the 5,101 m² site.

On German craftsmanship and maintaining a competitive edge: In his editorial column, Charles Kingston comments on "Craftsmanship", the most recent issue of The Column written by Eike Becker.

It is inexplicable to me that people simply stand by and watch the good craft enterprises disappear bit by bit, and with them a great deal of the knowledge and skills of good construction are lost.

„It’s important to develop understanding for each other“

The intention is to develop and realise an office building with commercial use on the ground floor and an underground car park on the property at Strahlenbergerstraße 123.

The construction site for our hotel building on the corner of Bundesallee and Hohenzollerndamm is moving towards the home stretch.

The building is visited in the final phase of construction, shortly before completion and handover to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
