Symposium: “Building Differently in Existing Structures”

July 2026

The German construction journal *Bauzeitung* and *md* magazine invite you to the 4th symposium in the series “anders! bauen im Bestand” on July 15 at the Hospitalhof in Stuttgart, starting at 5 p.m. ⁠
⁠
As the event’s title suggests, the symposium will focus on resource-efficient, circular construction and energy-efficient retrofitting. The Haus des Tourismus on Stuttgart’s Marktplatz will be presented as an example of this. ⁠
⁠
In addition to keynote presentations and panel discussions on building renovation, there will be two keynote speeches on the Haus des Tourismus. Our Managing Director, Cem Arat, and the Managing Director of the Ippolito Fleitz Group, Peter Ippolito, will discuss the significance, challenges, and lessons learned from the project with regard to circularity.⁠
⁠
We cordially invite everyone to attend the symposium! Participation is free and can take place both in person and online. ⁠
