RALF BOCK
Planning and building is a process that is nowadays influenced by many factors, which sometimes make the result seem quite inhumane, even though a lot of human energy has been put into it, from the planner to the building worker. Let us never lose sight of the goal of our efforts: To improve living together and working for mankind with our work.
Our Philosophy
There are many big and small things we can use to improve our living together and our personal feeling. Let us think together about how we can put it into practice. It is not a question of money it is a question of spirit. We shape our present and have a great responsibility for the future.
The Team at RBBW
The BauWerkStadt team consists of young international architects who enjoy working innovatively on architectural solutions to the challenges of our time. The team spirit is an essential component of the continuous development of our projects. BauWerkStadt conveys an understanding of how to deal with existing buildings and seeks resource-saving solutions with natural materials that can be further processed and used in new buildings.​
The most important thing for the team is to offer the users of our buildings as many opportunities as possible to settle in and feel comfortable. For us, the completion of a building is not the end point, but the beginning of a social architecture that starts with the occupation and use of the buildings. If our building is able to cope well with the process of constant adaptation and satisfied user communities are formed, we see this as our contribution to empowering democracy. Because all architecture is political and we are committed to combating isolation and compartmentalisation
in our society and therefore we promote opportunities for community building and communication.
