Poppies

Poppies will thrive as a resilient community development and showcase for cross-laminated timber construction.

Poppies will be a social hub in a former industrial district transforming into a lively neighbourhood. It consists of four buildings grouped around an inner courtyard and garden. These are interconnected by galleries which link the lofts, roof terraces and communal spaces. Poppies sows the seeds for a new shared-living concept in the mid-rental segment that is circular in the broadest sense.

The design of Poppies pushes sustainability standards to the max. Poppies is entirely composed of prefabricated timber modules which reduce the duration and carbon footprint of construction.
The building is net positive meaning that it produces more electricity than it requires by the use of solar and geothermal power. It is also carbon neutral meaning that 80% of the building materials are renewable, biobased, recyclable or reusable. Poppies yields a significant positive contribution to the emerging circular economy.
