Our scope ranges from new-build projects and the restoration of historic buildings to the delivery of modern infrastructure projects. We rely on digital planning, sustainable construction methods and close coordination with all stakeholders. This results in public spaces that bring people together and enrich our cities.

Building hotels – combining functionality, comfort and cost-effectiveness

Hotels are more than just buildings – they are places where people meet and feel at ease. They shape the cityscape, create a unique atmosphere and offer guests a temporary home. ZÜBLIN delivers hotel projects that delight operators and guests alike – from business hotels to design-led concepts. We reliably meet individual requirements and support our clients from the planning stage right through to handover of the turnkey project.

Every project presents its own challenges: integration into the urban landscape, demanding design requirements or complex technical standards. As an experienced main contractor specialising in hotel construction, we ensure that all trades work together seamlessly. Using digital planning (BIM), we make processes transparent and coordinate interfaces at an early stage.

Building for Culture and Knowledge: Libraries and Theatres

Libraries and theatres are public buildings of particular social significance. They promote education, culture and social participation – and place high demands on architecture, technology and user comfort. We create spaces that inspire and bring people together. We build them with passion, years of experience, digital planning and technical precision – so that culture and knowledge are given the space they deserve.

Libraries

Nowadays, libraries serve a far greater purpose than simply lending out books. They are learning spaces, digital knowledge centres and meeting places for all generations. When constructing modern libraries, flexible spatial designs, good lighting, acoustic quality and digital infrastructure are crucial. We also offer renovation services for historic library buildings, ensuring that conservation-sensitive construction is harmonised with modern requirements.

Theatre and Opera House Construction

Theatres place particular demands on room acoustics, stage technology, audience comfort and architectural identity. In addition to new builds, our services also include the refurbishment of historic buildings, from planning through to completion – always tailored to the needs of operators, artists and audiences.

Our areas of expertise as a main contractor in the construction of public cultural buildings:

• Digital planning using BIM to ensure early coordination between all trades
• Taking energy efficiency requirements and long-term building use into account in the planning and construction process
• Design quality through collaboration with architectural practices and specialist planners
• Smooth implementation, even for complex inner-city construction projects

Building shopping centres that breathe new life into towns

Shopping centres are key hubs of urban life. They bring together retail, catering and leisure, as well as providing spaces for people to meet, and shape the cityscape of many towns and neighbourhoods. As an experienced building contractor, ZÜBLIN builds shopping centres that are functional, architecturally impressive and commercially successful.

As a main contractor specialising in the construction of shopping centres, we manage the entire project – from planning right through to handover as a turnkey project. Using digital planning tools such as BIM (Building Information Modelling), we organise complex construction processes efficiently and transparently. Our expertise ranges from the construction of new shopping centres to the regeneration of existing retail properties.

We pay particular attention to:

• Building concepts and technology: project-specific requirements for building services, energy efficiency and potential certification standards such as DGNB or LEED
• Design quality: modern façades, attractive interior design, well-planned circulation routes
• User comfort: accessible entrances, good accessibility, leisure areas offering a high quality of stay

Shopping centres are high-traffic venues with a wide range of requirements. We build them with a clear focus on functionality, design and cost-effectiveness – thereby creating spaces that bring cities to life and bring people together.
