DURABILITY
Tomorrow’s natural and cultural heritage
Durabilityis a core principle in urban and landscape development. It entails creating solutions that withstand the test of time, adapt to change, and remain relevant— both culturally and ecologically.
Durability emerges when function, climate, and community are considered - together. Plan with flexibility, design in harmony with natural processes, and use resourceswith care.
Schønherr provides nature-positive consultancy that builds on existing assets and balances the need for development with the carrying capacity of the landscapeand cultural context.
We prioritize transformation over new construction, reuse of materials, and spatial efficiency — creating room for nature, renewable energy, andrecreational value.
Our solutions do not simply protect against climate change — they work with nature’s forces rather than resist them.
Our approach is rooted in professional depth, interdisciplinary collaboration, and documentation. We measure, learn, and adjust — to ensure that what we build today will endure tomorrow.
Our work rests on three core principles:
Our values are rooted in the New European Bauhaus initiative and thereby reflect a broader collective vision for the future.
We show the way toward transformation over replacement — creating urban spaces and landscapes where both people and nature are given room to thrive.
