Sustainable building planning
for new and existing buildings
© Hinterwirth Architekten ZT
We develop holistically future-proof real estate and help you to achieve the EU climate targets. With our expertise and the necessary know-how, we plan your construction project optimally for the future. This is important for many reasons.
The EPBD (Energy Performance Building Directive) provides for a renovation roadmap for all buildings. The aim is to decarbonize the building stock by 2050 at EU level.

How adaptable a building is to climate change is crucial for maintaining the value of the property.
Helene Teufl
Sustainability expert
According to the EPBD, all new buildings must be zero-emission buildings from 2030. Life cycle assessments in the planning phase help you make the right decisions to achieve this goal for your property.

Decarbonization by 2050
The Paris Agreement envisages limiting the average global temperature rise to well below 2 °C. This can be translated into a decarbonization target by 2050. To achieve this, it is necessary to reduce energy consumption and expand renewable energy sources.
Environmental crises
Floods, heatwaves, storms. Future-proof building planning is more important than ever. Climate change demands a transformation of the construction and real estate industry. Otherwise, it will not be possible to achieve the Paris climate protection agreement.
EU Buildings Directive
The EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) defines the path from nearly zero-energy to zero-emission buildings by 2050, with the aim of completely decarbonizing the building sector. From 2030, all new buildings are to be zero-emission buildings. New buildings owned by public institutions are to reach this standard as early as 2028.
Climate-friendly energy use and economical use of resources are criteria that define sustainable buildings. Especially with regard to their economic efficiency and value development. We help you to achieve the EU climate targets in good time. Your building will benefit from this in the long term.
Environmental risks
Climate change calls for buildings that are climate-resilient and well-suited to their surroundings.
Climate protection
Building operations must be net zero by 2050 at the latest, according to EU requirements.
Circular economy
Use of construction materials in the environmental cycle: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Environmental construction
Low-emission construction materials for the wellbeing of residents and staff.
Value retention
Future-proof planning can increase a building’s useful life and residual value and even the value of the raw materials.
Biodiversity
Building projects that are planned and implemented in harmony with their environment and surroundings.
