CRD
We are on a mission to create spaces that transcend time and co-live along future generations.
Our approach is grounded in creative problem solving, regenerative practices, and dynamic innovation, dedicated to craft together space that is sustainable, functional, and beautiful.
We are committed to create spaces that not only meet today's needs but are also rooted in the past context and able to grow into a net-positive future. Join us in crafting space for generations!
Our services are around two pillars of urgent agency, namely sustainability strategy & digital transition. We offer our services in the early phases of project development. We co-create an integral concept & vision for projects and validate feasibility by means of data-driven design studies.
Early on we provide development paths for your projects with data insights through multi-variant design & system analysis. We explore design possibilities for a more informed decision-making, from urban massing or program development to shading design optimization.
We invite you to have a look at the topics in our menu and the application tab below for a more detailed understanding of possibilities, the various types of studies and project application examples.
We provide answers to pertinent questions and decision & vision support. The deliverables and value outcome derive from these. We deliver the results from a custom iterative data model, including an analysis report package & conclusive presentation.
In our process & delivery we bring to light the critical relational dependencies, as well as gaps & missing links between the parts, conditions & assumptions of the project translated into the tailored computational data model.
Our methodology provides path possibilities, hence can reduce your project's timeline, identify & mitigate risks ahead to avoid additional costs, fortify concept goals and maximize potentials by providing precise answers & visions early on. Finally, we advice on path options & can guide you for further development.
Our agency stands for an integral method, as alloy of objective data-driven tools and our subjective critical and intuitive design mindset. In exploration & development we forge design & sustainability strategies with iterative parametric models to analyze and validate project potentials.
First, through a detailed intake process, we collaboratively assess your project's objectives and challenges, laying the groundwork for formulating pertinent questions. Subsequently, we refine assumptions, conditions, and constraints to tailor a model that addresses your queries and circumstances effectively.
In a few weeks we iterate through possible variations, offering numerical, graphical, and 3D data outputs. Finally, we synthesize and analyze the results, delivering and presenting insightful conclusions for the best compromise and project solution.
An application to a project is conditioned by the project starting points and the contextual regulations. From the urban spheres a building mass is developed from restrictions and possibilities towards balancing a compromise with a functional program and structures, further accounting for more relations, such as access connections, transitions & exteriors, building physics & systems as well as facade & interiors.
Systematic steps navigate us towards increasingly more detailled design solutions. This is achieved over various iterative result deliveries & decision-making milestones. The more modules we systematically integrate into a computational data model, the more complex yet also more integral and cohesive the resulting design solutions are.
Our primary challenges come from external factors, which we address directly as we manage the intake process & overall through cooperative & open dialogue.
On one hand the timely access to accurate project and local regulatory information for precise modelling can lead to gaps or delays. On the other hand, mismatching expectations and misunderstandings over technology, as well as the potential adaption curve to our innovative methods of work can be a challenge during the first collaborative process and might present an initial hurdle.
Our root is sustainable AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) technologies and has been seeded from a passion for humanity in society & wonder for the world. We dare to dream and construct hope.
Our crafting attitude is characterized by agility and front-loading to navigate smoothly through challenges. We are grounded in a strive for cohesive excellence. We value and build trust with dialogue, collaboration and qualitative service delivery.
The core of the CRD team is P. Kauter, supported by a diverse interdisciplinary and international network of specialized professionals. Most of all we focus on enduring client & partner relations, as only together we steer towards a brighter future for people and the planet. Collectively we can drive visions & ideas from data to design fruition towards regeneration over generations.
