construction site documentation | Werksviertel München district (2018 - 2020)

Whether by day in its offices, cafés and restaurants, or in the evening in the concert hall or a bar. In the Werksviertel München district life is vibrant 24/7. With a plethora of state of the art, spectacular hotels, its a thrilling destination for day-trippers, fans of upmarket establishments and backpackers alike.
Concept & planning:
Thrilling architecture, the linking of past and future and present and the spectacular mixed use of buildings and public space make the Werksviertel the district of the future for Munich. A new district for living, working, leisure and culture is being created in this 40-hectare former industrial and commercial area. Around 1,200 new homes are planned for some 3,000 citizens, with long-term plans for up to 7,000 new jobs. More than 340 apartments will be available as social housing. The Werksviertel district will enrich the quality of life of the city of Munich in many respects and offer people an urbane home. Here living space, offices, a concert hall, hotels and eateries and the carefully conceived social infrastructure and sports facilities form a symbiotic relationship with the environment and its users. A primary school with four classes per year group, local shopping amenities and a wide range of retail outlets complete the offering. Life in the Werksviertel district is distinguished by the versatile architecture and use of buildings, sense of community, exceptional transport links, sophistication and green spaces.
Past:
The further development of the area began with the arrival of Rohde & Schwarz and the construction of Media Works Munich. The Medienbrücke, an architectural showpiece of exciting contrasts, is the most recent precursor of the modern district. The plan adeptly fits together the individual pieces of the jigsaw. An urban district with superb connections to Munich’s main traffic arteries is coming into being. The Werksviertel München embraces all aspects of life: home, leisure, work and travel. The project area is being treated not as a blank canvas, but as a process. With the arrival of the new, the old must also be preserved. The upgrading of the area is characterised by quality and pragmatism. At the same time, the east of Munich will experience a new injection of dynamism and modernity.
