New apartments in Kassel: 73 units planned in the Jägerkaserne area!
Something is happening in the area of housing construction in Kassel! NOKERA AG has received a significant order to build two new residential buildings in the Jägerkaserne conversion area. This is happening as part of a Europe-wide tender by the non-profit housing association of the city of Kassel mbH (GWG Kassel). How konii.de According to reports, there are a total of 73 apartments that are designed differently - there is everything from one to five rooms.
What is special about this project: The contract was awarded through the “Serial and Modular Building 2.0” framework agreement of the leading association of the housing industry GdW. This agreement gives housing companies access to standardized housing construction concepts that save time and money. An excellent opportunity because Germany needs more affordable housing, and serial construction is a promising answer to this.
Serial construction – a trend with advantages
Serial construction, also known as prefab or prefabrication, is often initially viewed with reservations. In terms of quality and appearance, it can certainly compete with classic residential construction gdw.de notes. With this construction method, building parts or modules are prefabricated in a factory and then assembled on site like the “Lego principle”. This not only speeds up the planning and manufacturing processes, but also has the advantage that builders and neighbors benefit from shorter construction site times.
As part of this initiative, a great focus is placed on cost and time advantages, which is of particular interest to GdW members. The initiative already offers an easy way to select innovative housing construction concepts quickly and effectively.
Architecture and equipment in focus
The new buildings will be constructed in a future-oriented timber hybrid construction method, using prefabricated reinforced concrete elements for the staircases and timber panel construction for the walls. The technical details have also been well thought out: the bathrooms are delivered as prefabricated room cells and installed by crane. Modern features such as fitted kitchens, underfloor heating, floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies are also used. The energy balance is also optimized through photovoltaic systems on the roof and district heating.
Jan Hedding, co-CEO of NOKERA, is satisfied with the award and the development of the contract, which will help to support the press in the creation of socially supported housing. The buildings are scheduled to be completed by September 2027 at the latest.
Overall, this project is a step in the right direction to improve Kassel's living situation and create new, social housing. The proven concept of serial construction could also flourish in the future as a contemporary solution on the housing market.
