The role of the rooftop has dramatically evolved as designers and architects are increasingly creating valuable rooftop spaces that reflect their design expression and creativity. Yet, green roofs are not new, they have been around for decades at this point but have taken a center stage for aesthetic and sustainability purposes. With proven waterproofing products, assembly components, and hardscape and softscape elements roofs and amenity decks have begun to push the boundaries in dynamic and innovative ways. American Hydrotech’s Monolithic Membrane 6125® (MM6125®) paired with GardNet® and Garden Roof® components have been at the core of many of the countries most iconic buildings. Hydrotech has helped architects and designers integrate our expertise with their vision to create eye popping three-dimensional landscapes. In the article published by Waterproof! Magazine, you can find project highlights that showcase how steeply sloped roofs can be engineered using Garden Roof® components and our flagship hot rubberized asphalt membrane, MM6125®, that are designed with longevity and sustainability in mind.  Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/gwEPaZJd #sustainability #greenroof #vegetatedroof #greenbuilding #greendesign #greeninfrastructure #sustainabledesign #design #construction

Project Profile: Edinburgh Gate, Harlow As focus within building design shifts towards the impact of the internal environment on its occupants, increased attention has been paid to the architectural benefits of louvres. Although able to serve a range of purposes, the main aim of an architectural louvre is to allow the movement of air into a building, while prohibiting the entry of obtrusive water and debris. Architectural louvres are a specified design choice by many architects and developers due to their support of a building’s integrity and aesthetic enhancement. Beyond ventilation, architectural louvres also provide solar shading and help to reduce solar gain on building facades – further improving the interior environment for occupants. With extensive expertise in the manufacture, installation and maintenance of louvres, Greenwood Louvre’s market-leading product range can assist architects and building contractors to ensure the louvre looks good, performs well and is practical to install and maintain. #ventilationlouvres #architecturallouvres #acousticlouvres #brisesoleil #solarshading #smokeventilation #naturalventilation #carparkventilation #smokecurtain #firecurtain #greenwoodlouvre #louvres

This architectural concept for a mixed-use development is strikingly futuristic and complex: - **Design Innovation**: The structure's form is highly imaginative, with floating cubes that defy traditional building shapes, rating highly on creativity. - **Functionality and Flow**: The interconnected walkways and central elevator shaft suggest efficient circulation throughout the space. - **Aesthetic Appeal**: The juxtaposition of the geometric cubes with the curves of the lower buildings creates a visually appealing contrast. - **Green Spaces**: The inclusion of rooftop gardens and terraces promotes sustainability and adds an organic touch to the metallic structure. - **Water Feature**: The cascading water from the central structure adds a dramatic focal point and enhances the sense of grandeur. This concept pushes the boundaries of architectural design, integrating residential, commercial, and public spaces in a bold, vertical landscape.

In the town of Neusäß, Augsburg District, Schwaben Region, Bavaria, Germany, Architecture firm Titus Bernhard Architekten has completed another compact dwelling in its series of projects known as “habitable sculptures”. Built with a timber frame, the most recent addition to their series is enveloped in sustainable 3D ultra thin sheets of stainless steel. The stainless steel sheets reflect and somewhat mimic the nature surrounding it, creating an ever changing shimmering facade. Strategically placed oversized windows and doors allow for beautiful views of the natural surroundings as well as provide natural sunlight throughout the interior spaces. The home doesn’t stop at ambient light for energy saving measures, the home is also equipped with a 14kW Air Source Heat pump which drastically lowers its energy usage and allows for an air recyclability rate of 83.7%. An important part of sustainability initiatives are that they tackle multiple aspects of it. Sustainability is just one singular concept, it’s a combination of many, which can be achieved in different ways, allowing for creativity. Creativity, and innovation are crucial within the adoption of sustainable building methods, this project is a great example of that.
