Hexagonal Climate Adaptation Program
HKP
Hexagonal Climate Adaptation Program
„The future is not less sunshine. It is more shade where it is needed.”
HKP is a modular climate adaptation program that creates energy-producing, climate-adaptive and intelligent systems above existing roads, car parks and paved urban surfaces.
Six pillars, one system — pick one for details.
Six pillars, one integrated system
HKP is built on six mutually reinforcing pillars. Each sector of the honeycomb matrix represents one pillar — pick a hexagon or a label to explore its mission and objectives.
The vision
From hot asphalt to living infrastructure
Drag the slider to see how HKP transforms overheated car parks into shaded, energy-producing and climate-friendly spaces.

The problem
Vast concreted surfaces absorb heat, with no shade and no greenery. Urban heat islands are making cities increasingly unlivable.
The HKP solution
Solar carports provide shade and generate energy, while planted vegetation absorbs sound and dust — turning the car park into living, climate-friendly infrastructure.
Road-covering programme
A pergola system above urban roads
Running in parallel with the covered car park programme: a modular steel shading pergola above urban roads of at least two lanes each way. From columns placed between the two carriageways, supporting wings curve outwards and upwards like butterfly wings, and can run along the entire length of the roadway. Hexagonal panels sit on the wing surface, with gaps and perforated areas between them so that more natural light reaches the road.

steel, four legs
Cooler road surface
In summer it shades the road surface 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, easing and reducing winter road maintenance.
Solar energy production
Alternating hexagonal solar panels generate electricity on site for the economical operation of the system.
Green surface and biodiversity
The green hexagons create a living plant surface, increase urban biodiversity and cool the surroundings through evapotranspiration.
Self-sustaining water management
By harvesting rainwater the green surface becomes self-sustaining, and surplus precipitation can be recirculated.
Smart supporting frame
The structure accommodates driver information, traffic and urban monitoring systems, as well as measuring equipment.
Modular structure
Made of connectable modules with hexagonal panels
Butterfly-wing shaped supporting wings curve outwards from steel columns placed between the two carriageways and can be joined with neighbouring modules into a continuous structure along the entire length of the road. Solar-harvesting and vegetation-bearing hexagons alternate across the wing surface, with gaps and perforated areas between them to let natural light through. At the base, concrete separator blocks anchor the structure while also collecting rainwater and hosting vegetation.
Program structure
Six pillars, one integrated system
Each side of the hexagon represents a goal of its own, yet the real strength lies in how they connect. Together they form a sustainable, livable and smart urban ecosystem.

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