The listing itself is not editorial news, but it shines a light on a scarce segment: qualified installation, alignment and maintenance of production lines.

A. Folger & Co. coffee factory from the 1930s. The 6,050 m² facility will become a free public charter school for children from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade.

The Austrian studio Gangoly & Kristiner Architects has presented the renewed primary school in Straden: since the school’s last comprehensive refurbishment, requirements for school buildings have changed so much that the former volume no longer meets them.

ArchDaily has published a piece arguing that buildings rarely retain the same program over their service life, and that shifting conditions demand interventions never anticipated at project outset. The source names steel structures as the key instrument of such adaptability — a theme that directly intersects with the agenda of demountable and transformable mass timber.

The studio CHYBÍK + KRIŠTOF won the City of Jihlava's competition for a multifunctional sports and cultural arena with 5,650 seats. The project combines an expressive façade embedded in the urban fabric with detailing down to the acoustics of the spectator seats.

In the village of Oris (municipality of Laas, Vinschgau/Venosta, South Tyrol), a new civil protection centre has been built for the volunteer fire brigade.
