Hexagonal Climate Adaptation Program
HKP
Hexagonal Climate Adaptation Program
“The future is not less sunshine. It is more shade, right where it matters.”
HKP is a modular climate-adaptation program that creates energy-generating, climate-adaptive and intelligent systems above existing roads, car parks and paved urban surfaces.
The vision
From hot asphalt to living infrastructure
Drag the slider to see how HKP transforms overheated car parks into shaded, energy-generating, climate-friendly spaces.
Today
The problem
Vast paved surfaces soak up the heat — no shade, no green. Urban heat islands are making summers increasingly unlivable.
The HKP solution
Solar carports provide shade and generate energy, while climbing plants reduce dust and noise — turning the car park into living, climate-friendly infrastructure.
Road canopy program
A pergola system above urban roads
In parallel with the covered car park program: a modular steel shading pergola above urban roads of at least two lanes each way. From columns placed between the two carriageways, the supporting wings arch outward and upward like butterfly wings, and can run along the full length of the road. The wing surface carries hexagonal panels, with gaps and open sections between them so that more natural light reaches the carriageway.

Structure
steel, four columns
A cooler road surface
In summer it shades the pavement and cools it through evapotranspiration, reducing the formation and intensity of urban heat islands.
Easier winter maintenance
The covered carriageway protects the road from precipitation and icing, making winter road maintenance easier and cheaper.
Solar energy generation
The alternating hexagonal solar panels generate electricity on site for the economical operation of the system.
Green surfaces and biodiversity
The green hexagons create a living planted surface, increase urban biodiversity and cool their surroundings through evapotranspiration.
Self-sustaining water management
By harvesting rainwater the green surface becomes self-sustaining, while surplus precipitation can be recirculated.
An intelligent frame
The structure hosts driver information, traffic and urban monitoring systems, as well as measuring equipment.
Modular construction
Built from connectable modules with hexagonal panels
The butterfly-wing shaped supporting arches, curving outward from steel columns placed between the two carriageways, can be joined with neighboring modules into a continuous structure along the full length of the road. On the wing surface, solar hexagons alternate with hexagons carrying green surfaces, with gaps and open sections between them to let natural light through. At the base, concrete divider blocks anchor the structure while also collecting rainwater and providing space for greenery.
Program structure
Six pillars, one integrated system
Each side of the hexagon stands for a goal of its own — but the real strength lies in how they connect. Together they form a sustainable, livable and smart urban ecosystem.

A holistic model for the cities of the future
01
Integrated planning
We treat the six pillars not as separate projects but as a single, mutually reinforcing system.
02
Local delivery
We build on domestic manufacturing, local energy generation and real urban needs.
03
Measurable impact
From climate to biodiversity, we aim for trackable results along every pillar.
