Let’s explore circular building together
The challenge of our generation is to build with a lighter impact. Knowing that the building industry is key to tackling climate change, we as a façade material producer want to do more than just transform our materials. By 2030, we want to forge new and innovative partnerships, trailblaze transparency across the value chain and establish a sustainability council of external experts to stay on track to full circularity.
JUNG Architecture Talk Podcasts
The first podcast of the JUNG Architecture Talks series in spring 2020 was followed by 145 fascinating conversations with national and international architectural firms – about the profession and vocation, strategies and the will to change the world.
Even though architecture usually lives through the power of images, over 5,000 minutes of conversation prove how words can inspire architecture.
OBJECT CARPET
After ten years of development with NIAGA®, OBJECT CARPET presents DUO technology – the next generation of recyclable and stylish carpets. Consisting of just two easily separable layers made of polyamide and polyester, it maximizes design flexibility, minimizes material usage, and takes circularity to a new level.

The event venue
Silent Green Kulturquartier is an event venue and independent project that has found a unique home in Berlin in the historic premises of the former crematorium in Wedding. The heart of silent green is the Kuppelhalle, with its 17 meter tall dome. The architectural layout, pyramid-shaped mansard roof, and the historical terrazzo floor of the hall make it a distinctive venue that instantly turns every event into an extraordinary experience.
The moderator in Paris
Jean-Philippe Hugron, a journalist with a degree in architectural history, was awarded the Publications Medal of the Académie d’Architecture in 2020 for his publications, in particular for Le Courrier de l’Architecte, the online weekly he founded in 2010 and will run until 2020.
