Success Story - Johannes Gutenberg House, Kiel

The Johannes Gutenberg House Kiel, located in the Kiel Science Park, is a completed multi-tenant office building featuring flexible units designed for a variety of commercial tenants. onework provided planning and construction support on behalf of the manufacturer, as well as system integration for room and building automation. KNX, DALI, SMI, the facility network, occupancy data, room climate control, sun protection, Human Centric Lighting, measurement and control systems (MSR), building management systems (GLT), fault reporting management, and energy management were integrated into a scalable automation structure.

Flexible Tenant Structures

Different usage units had to be technically distinct from one another while also being controllable centrally.

Wide Variety of Systems

KNX, DALI, SMI, MSR, GLT, and the facility network had to work together within a robust architecture.

Transparency in Operations

It became necessary to be able to centrally record and analyze malfunctions, consumption, and operating conditions.

Scalability for future adjustments

The automation system had to be designed in such a way that changes in floor space and new requirements could be accommodated without disrupting the system.

The solution with onework

onework CORE

onework CORE serves as the central integration platform for room and building automation. Building functions are consolidated, control logic is standardized, and operational statuses are made transparent.

KNX, DALI, and SMI

Technical integration enables coordinated control of lighting, sun protection, and room functions. This combines comfort, energy efficiency, and space flexibility into a single system.

Fault Reporting and Energy Management

Fault notifications and consumption data are made available in a structured format. This improves response times, operational reliability, and optimization potential.

Indoor Climate, Occupancy, and Daylight

Room functions are controlled based on usage. This increases comfort and reduces unnecessary energy consumption.
