In Klötze, a single-family house was built that shows how precisely and resource-efficiently a project can be planned and constructed with the TRIQBRIQ system. Almost 2,900 BRIQs form the solid foundation of the building and help store around 61,500 kg of CO₂ over the long term. Across an area of around 320 m², two levels were realised by a compact team with a clear focus on an ecological yet efficient construction method.
What stands out in particular is the combination of traditional material culture with a modern solid wood construction system. The architecture follows the BRIQs’ 25 cm grid, using it as the basis for individual design solutions. Many structural details were developed together with the trades involved. The result is a technically well thought-out and visually coherent design.
The client describes his motivation as follows: “For us, it was essential to create an indoor climate that builds on the qualities of our previous half-timbered house with clay. The combination of solid wood construction and clay enables a naturally regulated indoor climate. On top of that come the reusability of the building blocks and the clear logic of the TRIQBRIQ principle.”
The time advantages were also a deciding factor for him: “The dry construction method allows for fast workflows and can offset the higher cost per square metre of wall area through reduced working time.”
Drone footage and visualisations show how closely planning and built reality align, and what potential lies in a consistently sustainably designed building envelope. With almost 62 tonnes of CO₂ stored for the long term, the project also sends a clear signal for climate-conscious housing construction.
