<strong>Siemens</strong> <strong>Headquarters</strong>, <strong>Munich</strong><br />

With the new headquarters, the <strong>Siemens</strong> corporation revives an excellent, high profile<br />

location on <strong>Munich</strong>’s Altstadtring. This competition entry proposes a fundamental<br />

reorganisation of the property. The usual boundaries between public and closed,<br />

urban and corporate-owned spaces are redefined to create space for a growing<br />

awareness of the <strong>Siemens</strong> brand as part of the City of <strong>Munich</strong> and the surrounding<br />

region.<br />

The diversity of daily working and private life becomes a prime architectual subject.<br />

The contrasting designs of the atriums are especially effective and make the<br />

heterogeneous influences and facets tangible, through the conscious use of light,<br />

materials, and spatial figures to pool, reflect, and make them tangible for visitors in<br />

a narrative way.<br />
