The name Jochen Schweizer stands for unforgettable events and is the undisputed market leader in Germany for unique experiences and adventure gifts. OSA created the Jochen Schweizer World on the Airbus site in Taufkirchen near Munich, making the company accessible to everyone for the first time.

Three pavilion buildings in the shape of rotor blades are connected in a circle to a central building. Viewed from the air, the arrangement of the individual complexes resembles an airplane propeller. The experiential character of the complex is thus reflected in the architecture. The central building, from which the event areas are directly visible, houses the foyer and a concept restaurant with an outdoor area. The pavilion buildings house an indoor surf wave and a vertical wind tunnel in which parachute jumps can be simulated. The third pavilion offers space for events of all kinds. With a climbing and high ropes course, the outdoor areas also provide action and relaxation for the whole family.
