Project specifications

In the Dutch city Uden, new-build project ‘De Bogerd’, of housing corporation Area, provides a new benchmark in the field of future-proof building. Creating a green and liveable environment for a broad target group was the main goal when designing this new residential area. The project is a breakthrough in nature-inclusive construction and a great example of bio-based construction. This project consists of 40 social housing units of various dwelling types built on a site where 22 homes used to be. Sempergreen’s pitched green roof system (vapour-permeable) has been applied to all homes, in combination with solar panels. This makes ‘De Bogerd’ a unique project, as pitched green roofs have never before been applied within the Dutch social housing sector on such a large scale. The sloping green roof system contributes to a pleasant living environment for the residents. In addition, the system is fully recyclable and dismountable, making it a sustainable solution.
