Groundbreaking event for “Park auf der Egg” development in Frenkendorf
At the beginning of September, a groundbreaking ceremony was held for the “Park auf der Egg” project in Frenkendorf, situated in the Canton of Basel-Landschaft. This project is being carried out by Häring for an investor and a private client and features two apartment buildings and one detached house that meet the Swiss Minergie standard, along with one shared underground car park. The architectural design, which is deliberately minimalist and has been given a Japanese aesthetic, combines the traditional building methods of the Far East with the state-of-the-art principles of modular timber construction. The components touching the ground and the core stair and access areas are being erected using conventional concrete / brickwork. The free-standing outer walls, all interior walls, ceilings and roofs are being built using sustainable modular timber construction methods. The materials used are environmentally friendly and free from harmful substances. Compared to conventional buildings, this approach reduces CO2 emissions by around 35 per cent and cuts the construction time by half. Heating is provided from a renewable source using a geothermal system.
A natural feel and surroundings akin to a wildlife reserve
The outdoor and recreational areas are fitted out to achieve a natural feel and, exactly like the planned building stock, grouped around the precious population of old trees. A Koi carp pond is envisaged for the southern part of the complex. The wooded plot is largely being preserved as a nature park and the existing large detached house is being demolished. A new detached house (featuring two flats) and two apartment buildings with eight and ten accommodation units respectively are being built. The three structures benefit from a shared underground garage. The accommodation units and the external areas are age-appropriate and accessible to people with disabilities. The 18 rental apartments are spacious, offering views and a patio in a park landscape. The overall project is due to be completed at the end of September 2022.
