Office building Rosenheimer Platz 4

The office building at Rosenheimer Platz 4 is on the northwest corner of the square in the Haidhausen district of Munich . With the new construction of the building, a large vacant lot that had been there for a long time was filled and the layout of Rosenheimer Platz was completed.

Location

The current location of the office building at the corner of Rosenheimer- / Steinstraße 1898

The office building is on the northwest corner of Rosenheimer Platz, where Steinstrasse meets Rosenheimer Strasse. The triangular street block, which is also bounded by Kellerstraße, is shared with a hotel that is directly adjacent to the building to the west on Rosenheimer Straße, the GEMA administration building and, even further to the west, the Gasteig ; to the north, on Steinstrasse, residential buildings border the office building.

The location is part of a parcel formerly called Auf der Lüften , to the north the area of ​​the Bürgerbräukeller bordered. Between the world wars there was a five-storey residential building on this street corner. After the Second World War , the property was temporarily used as a bottle storage facility, and there has been a parking lot here since the neighboring buildings were built in the 1980s. Of the two-row neighboring buildings - the hotel on Rosenheimer and the residential buildings on Steinstrasse - a total of four building wings bordered the corner property, so that the new building closed an inner courtyard on both sides.

building

The four- to six-storey building was planned by the now dissolved architects Katrin Hootz and Marco Goetz on behalf of Bayerische Hausbau , after a suggestion from another office had not met with approval. It encompasses a gross 104,860 cubic meters of space over 25,540 square meters of floor space , of which around 20,000 square meters are for main use. Completion was in January 2002. The building is concave towards the street corner , so that a plaza was created. Different eaves heights enable a connection to the heights of the neighboring buildings already existing at the time of construction and result in a lively structure towards Rosenheimer Straße, which is also achieved here through different window sizes - they are only noticeable at second glance. Towards Steinstrasse - with its residential buildings of a more suburban character - the facade is more homogeneous and, due to the smaller windows there, more closed than on Rosenheimer Strasse leading into the city center. On the street side, the house is uniformly clad with eggshell-colored Portuguese limestone, so that despite the differences in the facade design, a uniform overall impression is created.

At the western end, to the neighboring hotel on Rosenheimer Straße, there are two-story arcades . On the north side, facing Steinstrasse, the arcades are one-story; They were given a more closed character by an unusual triangular pillar cross-section. Due to building regulations from the city, arcades were required on Steinstrasse.

The base and pillars of the building are gray, and at the rear the facade is partially in full height. In the inner courtyard of the building, and partly also in the other inner courtyard formed with the neighboring residential buildings, the facades are clad with glass panels that change between green and blue instead of limestone .

The plaza on Rosenheimer Platz is slightly lower than street level; Even before the development began, there was a step in the terrain due to the clay mining for brick production. The plaza, like the other outdoor facilities - inner courtyard and garage entrance - was designed by the landscape architecture firm Brandhoff Voss.

use

Almost the entire building is used by the main tenant, the management consultancy Deloitte , for whom a usage concept was drawn up during the construction phase. A small part of the house is rented by a law firm. There are no shops or restaurants on the ground floor, neither in the courtyard nor under the arcades facing the street. Some of the window areas here are covered with reflective film, creating a repellent impression.
