Giving space to community and sustainability

2026

The Greenfields Buckow intergenerational neighborhood is a timber construction project designed for people at different stages of life. A diverse mix of apartment types enables families, single households, and older residents to live together. This creates a lively and diverse neighborhood.

Additional spaces for gathering and outdoor use are created within the neighborhood through a generous inner courtyard that supports a wide range of activities. Green façades contribute to the quality of stay. The ground floor zones are reserved for neighborhood-related commercial activities, including assembly rooms, training sessions, yoga and dance classes. These facilities encourage social interaction and engagement within the community.

A largely car-free mobility concept, along with on-site electricity generation from photovoltaic systems, complements the sustainable approach of the intergenerational neighborhood..

Overall, the Greenfields Buckow Generational Quarter combines innovative architecture with a strong focus on social integration and sustainability. It stands as an exemplary model for forward-thinking living concepts that meet the needs of a diverse society and create a positive living environment for all generations.
