[NEWS] “Roots” is the winner for the distinguished B!WRD Project Developer Award 2024

Germany’s tallest timber high-rise is making its mark, representing advancements in a new era of ecological construction. Last week, “Roots” was recognized with the BFW Project Developer Award “B!WRD” in the category “Residential” (Wohnen). During the gala in Berlin last week, BFW Bundesverband Freier Immobilien- und Wohnungsunternehmen e.V. announced winning projects for the categories “Residential”, “Commercial”, and “Neighborhood”. Fabian von Köppen accepted the award (pictured on the left). 

In addition to this recognition, “Roots” also achieved third place in the Polis Awards in the category “Ecological Reality.” Lumon is proud to take part in this winning project, with the integration of roughly 130 meters of circumferential glazing. The glazing protects the building from premature deterioration, reduces audible noise in the apartments, and contributes to the overall energy performance of the construct. 

The project has laid the groundwork for future developments in modern timber construction and environmentally-sound building.
