Building for Berlin

Experts and their expertise

Our core business is property management. The further development of our neighborhoods plays a central role in this – and thus also the creation of new living space. At HOWOGE, experts from a wide range of disciplines work together successfully. They support tendering processes, the digitalization process, competitive bidding procedures, and actively shape topics such as sustainability and participation. However, the expertise of our external partners is also fundamental to the success of our projects.
We are moving our neighborhoods forward.

We know what we're talking about – and want to learn together.

The HOWOGE Group is one of Germany's largest project developers. Together with long-standing and new partners in the construction and real estate industry, we want to make Berlin an even more livable city.

On the following pages you will find an excerpt of our expertise and innovative strength in the further development of our neighborhoods. More than usual.

We promote the creation of living space by adding stories to existing buildings. This protects the environment because less new land is sealed and rainwater can be recirculated.

Sponge city

HOWOGE is actively committed to making Berlin a "sponge city." This requires expertise. HOWOGE's experts are therefore constructing new buildings using all the tools of a climate-adapted city – and are also upgrading existing buildings to withstand future extreme weather events.

Timber hybrid construction

We utilize the durable building material wood and its ecological and economic advantages for state-of-the-art construction methods, such as timber-hybrid construction. For us, this is the future of building – as also used in our pilot project for a standardized high-rise building.

Serial, modular construction

A construction method that ensures quality and saves time while respecting the individuality of buildings. Serial and modular manufacturing allows for resource-efficient and sustainable planning and construction.

Floor plan evaluation system

The floor plan evaluation system is designed to develop new buildings that reflect the diversity of housing options, complement neighborhood structures, and comply with urban planning principles. All of this is achieved in close collaboration with planners, the construction industry, and our tenants.

BIM – Building Information Modeling

The BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology stands for networked planning using software that constructs a "digital twin" of a building. This supports the planning, execution, and management of buildings, thus enabling efficient, sustainable, and low-risk management.

Partnering

Through teamwork, HOWOGE, together with all stakeholders, is creating a sustainable management approach. Efficiency, quality, and economic success are the focus.
Electricity-only house

A key component of HOWOGE's sustainability strategy is the decarbonization pathway for its building stock. This aims to permanently reduce CO₂ emissions from building use – for example, from heating or hot water. HOWOGE intends to achieve a climate-neutral building stock (less than 3 kg CO₂e/m²/year) by 2045.

We are looking for partnerships

Specifically, between innovative general planners, committed general contractors and our high-performing HOWOGE for the joint development, planning and turnkey construction of future-oriented building projects.
