New build - GWG München

with the landscape architects Mahl-
Gebhard, the Munich architects
Friedrich Poerschke Zwink together with
landscape architect Peter Wich, architects
Müller und Naegelin from Basle
together with the Vogt landscape architects
from Zurich, and Regina Schineis
architects from Augsburg, with Munich
landscape architect Regine Keller.
The demands were high. The objective
was to raise the quality of life on the
Mittlerer Ring by a decisive degree while
at the same time devising a catalogue of
measures for conveying building owners
the “technical possibilities available for
improving living quality in similar cases.”
Together with the planning department,
GWG München tendered an expert
report, which presented concrete recommendations
in April 2005.
Of the four project teams, two presented
“feasible” solutions: the Müller
und Naegelin bureau with Vogt landscape
architects and the Felix and Jonas
bureau with the landscape architects
Mahl-Gebhard.
What both teams have in common is
that they protect the western building,
standing sideways to the ring, by means
of delicate building designs oriented in a
north-south direction, thus creating a
continuously green urban space in the
middle of Munich.
