At most there is a little humming and maybe one or two chickens clucking from time to time, but otherwise it is quiet at the Hotel Landgut am Pössnitzberg in southern Styria - as far as the panoramic view extends. The hotel is located on the South Styrian Wine Route and is surrounded by gentle nature, which appears Tuscan when the sun sets behind the poplars and archaic when the vineyards are shrouded in mist.

After more than seven years of construction, work on Porte Maillot is nearing completion. Porte Maillot is an important transport hub in the 16th arrondissement, which today includes an RER train station, a subway and suburban train station, a bus station and the "Palais de Congrès" congress center. At the same time, Porte Maillot is one of the most important "entrances" to Paris and has undergone an impressive metamorphosis in recent years, both above and below ground, in terms of forward-looking and sustainable urban design.
The new "Bridge" headquarters of the French telephone company Orange is located in front of the Île Saint-Germain and borders a public pedestrian area on the banks of the Seine. The design by Jean-Paul Viguier et Associés of Altarea Cogedim is based on the vision of the office of tomorrow: a place that promotes and strengthens teamwork, innovation and collaboration.
The Boieldieu Terraces in the Parisian banking and high-rise district of La Défense have come a long way. Built in the 1960s, the surfaces and waterproofing of the elevated pedestrian zone were recently in a desolate state. In addition, the approximately 16,000 square meter traffic area was anything but barrier-free. It took two years to rejuvenate the new urban flooring, including smart street lighting and additional green spaces that make living between the office building and shopping center more pleasant.
BUGA Mannheim had set itself the goal of becoming the most sustainable Federal Garden Show. Spinelli Park, originally a former military area, was transformed into a spacious and diverse green space as part of BUGA23. This transformation was carried out with sustainability, ecological diversity and social inclusion in mind. The four key themes of the BUGA (climate, environment, energy and food security) are most clearly reflected in the experimental field in Spinelli Park: jagged edges of the paving and ice floes cast in concrete mark the climate area.
