Our projects always start with a story

Located in the heart of Düsseldorf, the redesigned Schlüterstraße school campus sets a benchmark for sustainable and innovative outdoor spaces, with nature and education going hand in hand. In the spirit of creating a “green classroom”, school grounds are transformed into a vibrant, multifunctional landscape where learning, recreation, and sustainability seamlessly converge.

The existing secondary school named after Elsa Brändström in Rheine, near Cologne, is to be expanded to six trains and rebuilt on the site north of the Emsland Stadium. Connected by a continuous “play and sports belt” along the stadium circuit, the school and sports hall develop an urban unit, based on the competition design won by LAND Germany and JSWD Architekten.

The Q reactivates the former Quelle Versandzentrum in Nürnberg, a protected landmark of post-war modernism designed by Prof. Ernst Neufert. Following its closure in 2009, the large area of 250,000 m² remained vacant. Since 2018, a comprehensive mixed-use redevelopment strategy has been advanced for the site. LAND Germany was involved in the feasibility study for the regeneration of the green areas of the site, as well as in the detailed planning and executive design.

As an example of Germany’s commitment to sustainability and its innovation in facing environmental issues, the German Garden at the EXPO 2019 in Beijing showcased the development of typical German landscapes under the motto “Seeding the Future”, combining modern technologies with traditional features.

Against the backdrop of a 2 km long noise barrier being built within the wider Duisburg area, the urban development gap between Neudorf, Bissingheim and Wedau is being closed on the former marshalling yard in Duisburg Wedau on an area of over 90 hectares. Thus, the Sechs-Seen-Platte recreational area and the Wedau sports forest will be connected and generate a wide range of leisure activities for residents and new residents of the future neighbourhoods.

The new Schwarz Group Campus in Bad Friedrichshall reimagines the workplace as a living landscape. Designed for more than 3,500 employees, the campus brings together offices, restaurants, childcare facilities, and shared amenities within a cohesive green framework that strengthens wellbeing, fosters community, and enhances ecological performance.

Supported by a feasibility study led by LAND, the German city of Essen won the title of European Green Capital for 2017. Dedicated installations and urban interventions were devised for the award year, while the city’s commitment to a green and sustainable transformation continues to this day.
