VIVA Südseite and the Sustainable Commitment of Hesse Newman
For investment projects the Hesse Newman Capital AG puts a special emphasis on sustainable buildings. Green Buildings do not only improve the energy balance and protect the climate. The energy efficiency of a building and the implementa on of climate‐friendly technologies also offer measurably economic benefits.
Hesse Newman is member of the Financial Ini a ve of the UN‐Environmental Programme (UNEP FI). The signees of this inter‐na onal agreement acknowledge the reciprocity of economy, environment and society. Results of this conven on are the voluntary commitment to act sustainable and the engagement in Green Buildings.
VIVA Südseite is designed as a new construc on for mixed usage with residen al and retail areas, offices, medical offices, a fitness center and a basement garage.
The lively mix of uses and the design as a Green Building were the essen al criteria for the commitment of the Hesse Newman Capital AG.
The building should offer high quality working‐ and living spac‐es while providing a low energy consump on.
The interna onally recognized cer fica on system LEED was chosen to ensure the quality management in the planning and construc on processes regarding the ambi ous sustainability goals of the building.

LEEDTM Certification of Green Buildings
Green Building prac ces can substan ally reduce the impact of a building on the environment throughout its en re lifecycle. They also create an indoor environment that promotes the health and well being of the buildings future occupants.
The cer fica on system LEED (Leadership in Energy and En‐vironmental Design) was developed by the US Green Building Council (USGBC). The system cer fies the sustainability of buildings through comprehensive object documenta ons and independent third party reviews.
Points can be achieved in the following categories:
Sustainable sites
Water efficiency
Energy & atmosphere
Materials & resources
Indoor environmental quality
Innova on in design
The buildings can receive a rank of Cer fied, Silver, Gold or Pla num, depending on the acquired points.
Supported by Intep Integrated Planning GmbH, Hesse Newman Capital gained the highest of these grades for the building VIVA Südseite: LEED‐Pla num.

Sustainable Sites – Environment
The environmental impact of a new building starts with the selec on of the construc on site and is consecu vely depen‐dent on how the site is stressed during and a er the construc‐on phase.
Various possibilties together in one building
VIVA Südseite provides a wide variety of uses for residents and visitors together in one building. The tenants, living in the flats in one of the four top floors are able to use the offers in the retail area, the medical center or the fitness center within the shortest distance. This is reducing the mobility demand of the users no ceable.
Park
The adjacent green areas of the close district park were develo‐ped by the building owner within the planning process and the construc on phase. The residents, workers and visitors of the Viva Südseite are invited to rest and recover in these micro‐parks.
Light pollution
At night, illuminated rooms and outdoor areas are nega vely influencing the nocturnal environment respec vely the bio‐diversity. Furthermore, the demand of electric energy for the illumina on of external spaces is considerably high. The ligh ng of the project VIVA Südseite is reduced to a minimum. The internal illumina on is regulated by presence detectors and helps to reduce light pollu on and energy consump on.
Heat island effect
Heat island effects in summer can be reduced through green areas. VIVA Südseite therefore has a green roof and a big plan‐ted courtyard in the second floor.
Relaxing in the park
Reduced external illumination

Connection to the local public traffic
VIVA Südseite is located in immediate proximity to a subway sta on, a sta on of the suburban railway and bus stops. Especially the vicinity to the suburban lightrail sta on is impro‐ving the car‐free junc on of the commuters from surrounding regions. The residents and visitors of the building can find de‐tailed informa on rela ng to the public transport on a no ce board in the mall, located at the ground floor.
Ecological private transport
The parking lots in the basement of the building are completed with various storage posi ons for bicycles. Special emphasis is also put on parking lots which are reserved for fuel‐efficient respec vely low‐pollu ng vehicles.
Carsharing
The residents of VIVA Südseite can offer and search private rides and passengers at the no ce board in the mall. There are par cularly marked and reserved parking lots in the basement which serve as mee ng points.

Strategies to reduce the water consump on not only decrease the deple on of rivers, streams, reservoirs and aquifers but also result in lower energy demand for domes c water hea ng . The users of the VIVA Südseite therefore benefit directly through reduced opera ng costs.
Minimized use of potable water
The consump on of potable water is reduced by 40% in compa‐rison to the LEED benchmark in the building VIVA Südseite.
Planting without need for irrigation
By choosing na ve and adap ve plants irriga on is not required.
Water Efficiency
Saving 40% of domestic water through water saving fixtures
Green Building Booklet | 13
Interna onal climate protec on goals imply reduc on of green‐house gas emission and energy consump on. Buildings cause about 40% of the worldwide energy consump on. Green Buil‐dings help to reduce the energy demand and the greenhouse gas emissions.
Energy consumption
The building VIVA Südseite is supplied by district hea ng from the municipal u lity “Stadtwerke München”. District hea ng is generated with an efficient combined heat and power plant powered by natural gas and geothermal energy. Therefor a very high primary energy efficiency can be achieved in the building VIVA Südseite.
A special feature of the project is the use of waste heat of the chillers to heat the swimming pool in the fitness center and the flats.
Nature and quantity of the cooling agent
The refrigerant of the cooling tower in VIVA Südseite includes only low amounts of ozone‐deple ng ingredients. This protects the local and global environment.
Measuring concept
The energy‐ and water demand of the building is regularly re‐corded in the rental units. The efficiency of the building equipment can be controlled with these values.
Green electricity
The electrical power supply of the common areas for ligh ng and ven la on as well as the technical building equipment is supplied with 100% green power.
Energy & Atmosphere
High primary energy efficicency due to district heating
100% green power for the technical buil-ding equipment

Green Building strategies work to facilitate recycling and material reuse, promote the use of regional construc on mate‐rials with short transporta on routes.
Construction waste management
75% of the construc on waste has been recycled. Therefore, construc on debris were diverted into the frac ons wood, metal and demoli on waste for the following disposal.
Collection of recyclables
To maximize the por on of recyclable waste, the rubbish is diverted into the following frac ons:
paper
card
glass
metal
plas c
residual waste
organic waste
Regional materials

Buildings need to be healthy for those who inhabit them, con‐tribu ng the comfort, well‐being and produc vity of the occu‐pants. This includes the selec on of materials, control of poten‐al sources of contamina on and allowing the occupants con‐
trol over their environment.
Low emitting materials
The ingredients of colors, pain ngs, adhesions, sealants, floor covers and derived mber products were checked accurately by the selec on. Only materials with low percentage of VOC (Vola le Organic Compounds) were used. Materials with high percentage of VOC are detrimental to the indoor environmen‐tal quality and are unhealthy.
Visual comfort
The windows of the building were designed to enable views to the surrounding landscape from over 90% of the regularly occu‐pied spaces. Through this the quality in flats and at work spaces is clearly increased.
Indoor Environmental Quality
Low percentages of Volatile Organic Com-pounds (VOC)
A perfect view from 90% of occupied spaces

LCA – Life Cycle Assessment
An environmental life cycle assessment was operated during the planning process. Thereby the ecological impacts of the building construc on to the greenhouse effect are calculated and valued. With the result of this calcula on ecological materi‐als and construc ons can be iden fied and op mized.
The Green Building booklet - information for residents and users
Efficient and sustainable opera on of a building is only possible, if visitors and residents of this building are informed and sensi‐bilised about the special features of the building. An user manu‐al was created for the VIVA Südseite, which describes amongst others the efficient use of the building equipment, the offerings for transporta on and the concept for waste separa on.
