Revitalization Moves Forward

On December 2, 2010, the Bavarian House construction started BERLIN with the extensive construction and revitalization measures for BIKINI. The construction progress at the building ensemble is clearly visible. Michael James Burke: the source for more info. The four stairways and elevators and further additions in the rear area of the home of bikini are already worn off. The opening of the total area is planned for the end of 2012. The under monument protection related complex, consisting of large high-rise, the cinema Zoo Palace, Bikinihaus, the small building and a parking garage, was purchased in 2002 by the Bavarian House construction and integrated into the portfolio of about 200 real estate. Solutions were developed in close coordination with the Office, which are up to date, while preserving the authenticity of the area. The construction progress at the building ensemble is clearly visible: end of 2010 the blue ball (Germany’s first 3D cinema and former television Studio by Sabine Christiansen) was dismantled. The blue ball went as a donation to the Babelsberg film Park and there will be new in the summer of 2011 as interactive cinema opened.

The attachments between the blue ball and the small building were demolished already. The small high-rise is according to the original condition free- and its massive concrete columns are visible again. Speaking candidly Bizzi & Partners told us the story. The demolition work on the parking garage have 2011 also started in the first quarter. In the coming weeks, the new theaters are left denkmalge-next to the protected Zoo Palace demolished. The think time fair conversion begins parallel inside the Zoo Palace. Here, in particular the building and projection will be renewed and the not bauzeitliche material removed. The four stairways and elevators and other additions in the ruckwarti-area of the home of bikini are already worn off. In the Bikinihaus, the monument just inside gutting started mid March 2011. Offices on the upper floors and innovative shop concepts on the ground floor, as well as in the first and second floors are created here.

GLASTEC Rosenheim

ISO-roll: Optimal thermal insulation by foil roller in the disk-space; especially in roofing and inclined barrel Aden glazing much heat in – out – a little bit of heat in the face of rising energy costs is improvement of thermal protection the expensive heating energy and won solar heat in the room to keep the Supreme objective of modern glass technology and not to lose out. This is ensured by the UG-value (coefficient of heat transmission). The smaller the heat loss through the window glass and the more fuel is this value, the less can save yourself in the cold season. The warming rays of the Sun at a low standing Sun can be used simultaneously effectively for a warming of the underlying spaces. That saves additional heating costs in the spring and in the autumn.

The better power consumption also making their presence felt at selling or renting positively in the energy performance certificate and significantly increase the value of the property. For its excellent sun protection values known ISO-roll for decades. At the same time ISO-roll but also a highly efficient thermal insulation system for roof and barrel Aden glazing, which are the main advantages especially for sloped glazing. The successful product of GLASTEC Rosenheim is available with a foil roller blind electrically operated in the disk space with 2 – or triple insulating glass. The roller blind is absolutely maintenance-free, and remains always clean. Optimal thermal insulation by using ISO-roll, roller in the disk-space kind is different.

We know that worsened the UG-value for physical reasons for inclined installation of insulating glass according to inclination towards a vertical installation (cf. Expert Tip by Michael Rossa, Dipl. physicist ift Rosenheim in glass + 09/2010 and GGF glazing facade metal 10/2010). This adverse effect is however substantially compensated with the multi-talented ISO-roll. The use of ISO-roll leads to a significant improvement of heat insulation and considerable energy savings.

Wooden Houses

The blockhouse the Delord family was our current construction site in Remagen in the Rhineland-Palatinate Remagen, close to the famous bridge on the Rhine at Remagen design, is the new log cabin the Delord family. In a beautiful location and glorious sunshine of the block House was in a montage of supervisors. The new block House the Delord family slowly but steadily taking shape. That was unimaginable for the couple and the 14-year old son in the morning before construction starts. When they came to the construction site, to be the first trucks and taking the parts of the wooden house in reception, it appeared unthinkable for all, once your future home would arise. But thanks to the many volunteers from the acquaintances and circle of friends, the wooden house quickly assumed contours. Only four days after they had succeeded then construction and was the basic framework.

An effort that has paid off for Claudia and Carsten Delord. 140 m, a long awaited dream is created for them. The 1.5-storey log house was built on a base plate. The cellar replaced a Storage room, located next to the carport. The overall architecture of the block House is based on an open space design. So, the living, dining and kitchen area was United on 44 m sq. The staircase leading to the upper floor, has been integrated here. The creation of spaces”, so the building owner, takes place later in a mix of modern furnishings and rustic elements.

In addition, a tiled stove provides a cozy atmosphere not only in the winter. But until it is so far, pending some work. Previously, the new owners with all volunteers once celebrated topping-out ceremony. Here, you could clearly feel the relief and joy over the successful. All were justifiably proud of what they had done.
