Danakil Desert and Jungle House

Erfurt

The flagship project of Erfurt BUGA 2021 - Danakil, consists of two parts: Desert House and Jungle House, and is located in the center of the ega park.

A unique building that allows two contrasting climate zones to be experienced in its interior posed a technical challenge. The ingenious supporting structure withstands the extreme climatic conditions. The external primary load-bearing structure, a steel frame with spans of 33 and 37 m, supports the fine-acting secondary structure with the aid of a movable hanging system. This system ensures the thermal separation of the two supporting structures and the possibility of expansion of the lower structure in directions determined by the position of the fixed point.
