• About Firm
  Peter Gronych + Yvonne Dollega are German architects headquartered in Wetzlar, Hessen, Germany. The office's work is characterized by an experimental search for the specific constructional form. Lighting, space and the building body are examined based on the architectural concept and developed further using work models, resulting in a unique architecture form matching the location with a high spatial quality: The focus is on people with all their senses and emotions

The main axis of the building is pointing south, where large window planes are placed in order to make the maximum use of the natural energy of the sun, while suffusing the interior with light. At the same time, the defined roof overhangs and the glazings in the
south themselves are constructed to prevent overheating in the summer. Heating and cooling of the structure is resolved through geothermal heat, whilst a low-temperature panel heating guarantees comfortability.
