fusion of production and office in one building

A lack of hierarchy, simplicity, efficieny and clarity represent the basic ideas of the design for a building with areas for production, offices as well as research and development. The structural structure of production hall and office show no external difference. A industrial facade, consisting of panels and ribbon windows, surrounds the entire structure and its cantilevers. These floating components bring the underlying public space far into their own property and underline the dynamic component of the company. The qualities of the hall are brought into the office: raw concrete, visible, open lines and no suspended ceilings.

construction

The industrial building requires neither cladding nor decorative layers. Everything is open, simple and functional. The reduced structure enables efficient total costs and long-term flexibility.

outdoor space

The inner courtyard represents the core of the building and interlocks production and administration. The wind protected area serves as a place to stay for guests as well as employees.

building as changeable machine

From the competition project to completion, rooms were continously adapted or entire parts of the building changed. Gaps were deliberately left between the acoustic panels of the finished building in order to be able to retrofit pipes and ventilation ducts.
