We are happy to announce that Pharmacy Marx has won in two categories at the Iconic Awards 2026. We are happy that the project has been distinguished as a winner in the categories of Architecture: Healthcare and Circular Design.

Pharmacy Marx is the second project within a series of small case studies at Metaform. This project focused on reduction as a design approach and explores material economy, resource conservation, and architectural reduction in an experimental way.

From the very beginning, the design focused on using as little material as possible and considering each component in multiple ways: functionally, structurally and atmospherically. Waste avoidance remained a priority during ex*****on, and apart from a minimal amount of tile offcuts, no waste was generated on site. In the production of the furniture, the approach to material optimisation was refined even further. Cutting patterns and workflows were developed to ensure that no leftover material was produced. The small amount of unavoidable offcuts is completely reused in the workshop. The logic of the project: Nothing is concealed and nothing unnecessary is added. The pharmacy exemplifies an attitude that understands sustainability not as an aesthetic label but as an integral part of architectural thinking. It shows that omission can lead to a sense of density and to an architecture that achieves maximum impact with minimal material.

We thank the jury of the Iconic Awards and German Design Council for this recognition.

A new chapter begins for Grundschule Dreiländereck in Perl.

Last Friday, the municipality of Perl received €6 million in funding for the first two phases of the school’s renovation and extension. The funding was presented to Mayor Ralf Uhlenbruch by Saarland Minister-President Anke Rehlinger and Minister for the Interior, Building and Sport Reinhold Jost.

The project will transform and expand the existing school, carefully integrating the buildings from different periods with new spaces and creating a coherent environment for learning, interaction and community.

We are proud to contribute to this important development for the community.
Read more about the project and its architectural concept in the full article on our website.

-----------------------------

Ein neues Kapitel für die Grundschule Dreiländereck in Perl.

Am vergangenen Freitag erhielt die Gemeinde Perl eine Förderung in Höhe von 6 Millionen Euro für die ersten beiden Phasen der Sanierung und Erweiterung der Schule. Der Förderbescheid wurde Bürgermeister Ralf Uhlenbruch von Saarland Ministerpräsidentin Anke Rehlinger und Minister für Inneres, Bauen und Sport Reinhold Jost überreicht.

Das Projekt wird die bestehende Schule erweitern und weiterentwickeln, indem die Gebäude aus unterschiedlichen Bauperioden sorgfältig mit neuen Räumen verbunden werden. So entsteht ein zusammenhängender Ort für Lernen, Begegnung und Gemeinschaft.

Wir freuen uns, zu dieser wichtigen Entwicklung für die Gemeinde beitragen zu dürfen.

Mehr über das Projekt und das architektonische Konzept erfahrt ihr im vollständigen Artikel auf unserer Website.
