Zusammenfassung: In urban areas, the promotion of biodiversity is gaining importance. On the one hand, biodiversity is dwindling due to intensive agriculture and the loss of habitats; on the other, cities offer a variety of suitable microclimatic conditions for plant communities and animals, which can be implemented through sustainable planning. This work aimed to develop a feasible concept for a building envelope to promote biodiversity, considering the surrounding habitats while addressing the specific needs of target animal species. This required a close cooperation between architects and environmental engineers. The study case selected was a family house in Gattikon (Zurich, Switzerland), belonging to the Swiss architectural office VBAU and subjected to renovation. First, a site analysis was run to map local habitats, animal species occurrence and wildlife barriers, and simulate the time exposure to sunlight/ shadows on the building envelope. Second, the criteria to rule out habitats and species was identified following an exclusion procedure. As a result, three habitats and six animal species were selected. Last, a concept for the design of the facade on the base of the ecological analysis results was developed. Bricks were used as suitable material to create a structured green facade that mimics the selected habitats while meeting the ecological requirements of the selected target plant and animal species. In conclusion, considering both the habitats as a model and the life cycle of the target animal species enabled the selection of plant species to green the facades without missing the survival needs of animal species.
