Fischer Factory Hall

Mühlweg , Dettenhausen, Germany

The extension of the Heinz Fischer company with a factory hall could only be realised towards the Schaichtal nature reserve, a sensitive and scenic floodplain landscape. The integration was achieved using a Corten steel façade, which was laser-cut with free forms. This design approach helps dissolve the mass of the building. The hall is closed on three sides, while the fourth façade opens up towards the stream. This creates an image of nature, forming a symbiosis with the working environment. The hall can be used for both production and storage purposes.
