The schorenstadt is Implenia's flagship project for the 2000-Watt Society and has been developed in partnership with renowned Basel architects Burckhardt+Partner AG and other specialists. In order to keep the demand for grey energy as low as possible, the schorenstadt is largely being constructed from wood. Depending on the type of building, a variety of modern timber construction methods (hybrid construction with concrete ceilings and columns; mixed construction with concrete-covered wooden planks; wood-panel construction) are being used.

The project is divided into three rows of buildings, each containing different types of terraced housing, in addition to apartment buildings. In total, the development includes 43 townhouses and two freehold apartments in apartment buildings. All of the terraced houses have a basement, a ground floor and a first floor, as well as an attic level with a large roof terrace. The offset arrangement of these terraces creates an additional private space outdoors. Photovoltaic systems are also being installed on the roofs and will be owned by all the occupants.

The interior spaces boast an intelligent layout and offer a great deal of design freedom. The rooms are also flooded with daylight, giving them a light, airy feel.
