The LUBW extension is divided into a laboratory building and a comb-like office building. The two three-storey volumes are connected to each other and to the existing building via glazed walkways. This creates a coherent building structure, an ensemble of old and new with a uniform appearance towards the city entrance. In total, the state is investing around 67.4 million euros in the Großoberfeld location.

  • The existing building is retained as the address for LUBW, and the new building is located close to it. The architectural theme of the existing building is formally expanded and systemically supplemented to form a new ensemble.

  • The interior design is characterised by great clarity and good orientation. Places for informal communication and spontaneous encounters are consistently arranged at the interface between horizontal and vertical flows of movement and allow for visual relationships between the buildings.
