  • Carrier invests in Archilogic

    Carrier invests in Archilogic

    Carrier has invested in three start-ups through its newly created venture capital fund. According to a media release , one of these is a Swiss company, Archilogic .

    The spin-off from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich ( ETH ) convinced Carrier with their specially developed software. With this, the floor plans of buildings can be converted into 3D models. For example, users can see how a floor plan affects the visual reference, incidence of light or noise pollution. This makes it easy to compare different floor plans.

    Carrier also wants to integrate the Zurich development into its own digital cloud platform. This should enable users to visualize buildings better, which should ultimately enable the planning of “healthier and more efficient rooms”.

    Carrier has launched its venture capital fund, Carrier Venture 2022. The company, based in Palm Beach Gardens in the US state of Florida, wants to promote sustainable innovations in the building sector.

  • Six “courtyards” promise urban and natural flair in Adliswil

    Six “courtyards” promise urban and natural flair in Adliswil

    Six buildings in a park-like setting with natural names such as “Libellenhof”, “Eulenhof” or “Froschhof”. Around 10,000 square meters of space for commercial and office space and space for 331 rental apartments. Energy efficient building standard. A park-like environment, car-free zones, beautiful courtyards, meeting places and playgrounds. Urban flair through bistros, shops, a fitness center, a supermarket, a daycare center and medical practices. Relaxation, liveliness and an inspiring environment. That is what the Quartier Höfe Adliswil should be when it is completed in 2024.

    The Libellenhof and Hummelhof buildings should be ready for occupancy as early as 2022. The Libellenhof is located in the west of the area. The L-shaped structure is the gateway to the Höfe district. On the ground floor there is a supermarket, a daycare center and other services. Office space and apartments are available on the upper floors. The 56 apartments in the Libellenhof have spacious floor plans, the atrium apartments are loft-style and have roof terraces. The Hummelhof is on the east side of the quarter. Commercial space is planned on the ground floor, office space and 53 apartments on the upper floors.

    In the course of 2023, the Amselhof and the Schwalbenhof right next to it should be ready for occupancy. The Amselhof forms the south-eastern boundary of the quarter. The trapezoidal structure has a large inner courtyard. Commercial space is planned on the ground floor, office space and 68 apartments on the upper floors. The Schwalbenhof wants to appeal to tenants – double earners with or without children, singles, expats – who are looking for exclusive quality of living.

    The Froschhof and the Eulenhof are to be built by 2024. The Froschhof is also mainly intended for living. The smaller Eulenhof with only 16 apartments offers tenants a lot of privacy.
