As a total service provider, we realize your projects.
1) 50% shorter construction time due to standardization of components
Openlys are timber-steel hybrid buildings. The high degree of prefabrication of ceilings, walls and wet rooms drastically reduces the construction time.
2) Cost neutrality
"Openly buildings" are constructed by local master builders and timber construction companies at a cost of approx. 3000 CHF/Euro* per m2 GFA. Our construction system is the alternative to gigafactories such as Gropyus and Nokera, reduces transportation costs and strengthens the local economy.
3) Customized design
Openlys are individually designed and do not follow an architectural monoculture, as implied by serial construction. Our subsidiary Valley Architects AG creates diversity.
4) -50% CO2, ESG conformity
"Openly buildings" achieve 6kg CO2/m2 EBF.
Meet the future requirements today. Building owners such as the Swiss Federal Railways are leading the way, in Denmark 6kg / CO2 is the target value from 2029. Sufficiency and re-use are part of our DNA.
5) Calculable processes
Thanks to the construction system, planning and approval cycles are short and costs can be planned. Our vision is to use AI to go from the start of the project (preliminary project) to the building application in one month, because the materials, application and approvals are already available. Today we need 15-24 weeks* for our preliminary project plus.
*Openly Projektgrösse > 14 Wohnungen (> 1000m2 NGF)
>W2 / < W6
6) European thinking
The more often natural building materials are used, the cheaper they become. We therefore rely on the open source concept ("openly") and invest in the ecosystem ourselves.
As C-Sink Managers, we certify sinks in buildings.
The PlusEnergy business case
Openlys are always PlusEnergy buildings. As an investor, you benefit threefold:
a) through low ancillary costs (= high net rents)
b) through the sale of electricity on the premises (ZEV)
c) through minimal building services (purchase & replacement)

Financial benefits
For your construction project with OPENLY
1-x % from PlusEnergy
Increase in net rental income by up to 20% thanks to very low ancillary costs, high construction quality and ZEV.
3-x% Higher valuation
According to a study by Wüest & Partner, the ratings of climate-optimized buildings increase by 3-4%.
1% refinancing of construction costs through CO2 certificates
Buildings made of biogenic materials can be certified according to the Construction C-Sink Standard by Openly.
EU taxonomy
Compliance with ESG criteria and other legal requirements, e.g. Denmark (CO2 emissions 6 kg/m2)
Minergie P subsidy, KfW40 subsidy (DE)
The key lies in up to 20% higher net rents due to low operating costs, higher willingness to pay for the living environment and additional income from electricity.

The 13 million proof
Sufficiency not as a buzzword but implemented in practice
Not just wood: natural building materials such as hemp, clay, wood and straw are an integral part of the Openly building system and complement traditional concrete construction.
Re-use implemented, the Openly building system relies on significant re-use components in new construction
-50% CO2 - The first building owners are setting CO2 targets for new builds of their own accord, without legal pressure. Our buildings achieve these targets with 6kg / CO2 at comparable construction costs.
Minimal building technology is part of the construction system - i.e. reduced gray energy during construction and zero emissions during operation (Openly buildings are always plus energy)
Lighthouse projects: Various project developers have already realized "green buildings": Residential - Peach Property or PENSIMO with Zwhatt (Boltshauser Architekten), Commercial: SENN with HORTUS (HdM Architekten), PSP Swiss Property with JED Schlieren (BEA Architekten 2226), Heinrich Schmid with Speicherschmid (Florian Nagler Architekten, formerly SOBEK)
