Project description

Project description

The educational authority of the state capital of Munich had their offices built on a plot south of the railway tracks of the nearby main station in 2010. The building structure, which is over 200 metres long, houses individual offices on all of its seven storeys. As the client did not want this single usage of the building to be discernable from the outside, the architects designed the façade with vertical, coloured aluminium panels. With each one stretching across two storeys, these façade panels are divided up by colour. The rich, dark shades of anthracite and green are used more in the lower area, while the light white and yellow tones dominate the top. To the outside, this grid pattern is not visible – the slimline and wide powder-coated façade panels alternate independently of the supporting grid, lending the façade a playful, less structured appearance. The window units – a Schüco special construction – are located here underneath the coloured panels and are a discreet dark grey.

In order to make the building seem less tall and dense, the architects from the Kupferschmidt practice joined two storeys together at a time in their design and divided the expansive façade of the building visually into three main storeys. These main storeys are separated from one another by horizontal anthracite and white bands which run along the entire length of the building. The attic storey contains two building structures that are clearly set back and connected to one another via a large terrace.
