Pursuing More Sustainable Architecture — Our Collaboration with Planted
At WERLE + WAGNER, we believe that architecture must respond to the challenges of our time - not only through design but through responsibility.
We’re proud to announce our partnership with Planted, our close partner on the journey toward more sustainable architecture.
About Planted
Planted is a tech company that helps organizations navigate their path to Net Zero. Their ESG management platform combines artificial intelligence with deep sustainability expertise, making it easier for businesses to measure, manage, and improve their environmental and social impact.
In addition to data-driven ESG strategies, Planted develops climate projects that offset carbon dioxide and supports tree-planting initiatives to strengthen biodiversity and restore ecosystems.
Through these efforts, Planted & W+W bridge the gap between design, technology, science, and tangible action - making sustainability measurable and transparent.
A Shared Commitment
For us, this collaboration is both a commitment and a learning process. Together with Planted, we aim to:
Understand our carbon footprint in detail
Invest in certified climate projects that compensate for emissions
Plant trees to help reforest local ecosystems and support natural carbon storage
And most importantly, make this process transparent - for ourselves, for our clients, and for our community
We see sustainability as a journey, not a destination. Partnering with Planted allows us to connect architectural thinking with environmental responsibility — using data and science to guide meaningful decisions.
Human Architecture
At WERLE + WAGNER, we define our work through what we call ‘Human Architecture’ — an approach that safeguards and enhances human life by protecting the environment we depend on.
To us, building more sustainably means more than reducing emissions. It means planning, designing, and constructing spaces that are resilient, efficient, and deeply connected to nature.
Sustainability should not just be an add-on to projects - it should be embedded in how we think, how we collaborate, and how we shape the environments where people live and thrive.
This partnership allows us to translate values into action - making our ecological footprint visible and our improvements tangible.
Looking Ahead
Our goal is not only to create architecture that minimizes harm but to contribute positively — to design buildings and environments that give back to the ecosystems they inhabit.
By combining innovative design, technological tools, and environmental intelligence, we want to redefine what responsible architecture can be - not as a trend, but as a long-term cultural shift.
This collaboration with Planted marks an important step in that direction.
It’s the beginning of a continuous process - of learning, measuring, planting, and rethinking.
