b+ (bplus.xyz), formerly brandlhuber+, is a collaborative architecture practice operating at the intersection of theory and practice through various media and formats. The practice engages with contemporary challenges, especially the social-ecological transformation of existing buildings, offering economically viable solutions.
The studio understands architecture as an open process, viewing buildings as part of larger systems that require systemic approaches. It considers existing buildings and legislation as active design tools with transformative potential. Thus, b+ celebrates the existing built environment and aims to reveal latent potentials within.
The practice emphasizes collaboration with different actors and stakeholders, valuing their expertise and creating spaces for exchange. b+ seeks to advance a new value system in architecture focused on collective responsibility, systemic thinking, and ecological and economic viability.
