Daylight meets design in the new Activo center, where OKAWOOD enhances comfort, energy efficiency, and well-being on the shores of Bremen’s Werdersee.

Located on the shores of Bremen’s Werdersee, the new Activo movement center expands the Roland Klinik with a holistic focus on health, light, and landscape. Designed as a compact passive structure, it is built according to renewable energy principles and accommodates medical practices, a pharmacy, and a public restaurant with a seminar area.

The building makes a strong architectural statement: a solitary volume cantilevered toward the lake, inviting not only patients but also walkers and nature lovers to linger.

Glazed with OKAWOOD, the façade allows daylight to filter gently through integrated wooden lamellas, improving energy efficiency and interior comfort. An architecture that encourages activity, promotes healing, and harmonizes with its natural surroundings.
