Tp3 Architekten. Everything in focus.
When people ask us what we do, the answer is simple: architecture. When we describe how we do it, one word is nowhere near enough. Good architecture has to meet requirements, adhere to budgets, take responsibility, keep the balance between sense and sensibility, be beautiful and be able to integrate itself into its environment. It is often not easy to reconcile these contrasting goals. But that is precisely our area of expertise.
Our basic principles.
Sustainability: Rationally, rather than radically ecological.
Our stance is unequivocal: Pro sustainability. We mean that not only in an ecological and economic sense but also with regard to style. A beautiful house is so timeless that it still fits into the townscape 30 years after it was built. That too is sustainable.
Cost efficiency: Precious but worth the price.
Many people believe that the work of an architect is expensive. At first glance, they are not wrong. In the long term, however, the great thought that Tp3 architects put into a project beforehand pays off. The investment in an architect who takes the big picture into consideration is soon repaid.
Personality: Being creative without losing focus.
We build homes for people. Not for architecture magazines. Every building is as individual as the people who have commissioned it or the requirements that it has to meet. In the various phases of the project, we are not only creative planners, we are also good listeners.
Design: Sensory but sensible.
Everybody wants a beautiful home. But beauty also has to be practicable. Otherwise, the line between sensory and senseless is suddenly uncomfortably narrow.
Who we are and how we work.
For a long time, the term "sustainability" has been used almost wastefully and is often prematurely assigned only to the ecological sphere. We believe that a sustainable mindset means predicting the consequences of every action.
For us, sustainability denotes planning and building in a sensible, clever, economic, socially viable and environmentally friendly manner. Irrespective of whether it involves a new build or refurbishment, social housing or a complex of offices.
Good architecture has to meet different requirements, establish a balance between sense and sensibility, be economically and visually sustainable, and bear the responsibility for many tasks. Good architecture thinks of everything. That is why we say: Everything in focus.
