Description

    Urban Design and Masterplan

     

  • Campeon Infineon HQ in Munich is a technological office campus designed as the headquarters for Infineon.
  • The masterplan is centered around two key principles: modularity and maintaining a human scale. This ensures that the layout is accessible and inviting.
  • The campus follows a low-rise design, with all buildings limited to 2-3 floors. This approach aligns with the urban fabric of Munich, where high-rise buildings are generally restricted, maintaining a human-scaled urban environment.
  • The plan incorporates an orthogonal layout with a structured interplay between built and unbuilt spaces. The modular design also allows for flexibility in the use and development of spaces.
  •  

    Pedestrian-Friendly Layout

     

  • The campus is car-free, promoting a pedestrian and cyclist-friendly environment. The only road on-site connects the entrance to the underground parking, allowing free movement for pedestrians and bicyclists throughout the campus.
  • A central green area branches into landscaped paths, while courtyards between the buildings provide quiet, restful zones for relaxation and outdoor working.
  •  

    Sustainability Features

     

  • The campus integrates several sustainability initiatives, most notably a geothermal heat supply system, which utilizes water pipes to regulate temperatures across the campus.
  • The landscape features a prominent water body that serves multiple purposes:
  • Regulates the microclimate, helping to moderate temperatures.
  • Acts as a rainwater reservoir.
  • Functions as a calming element, enhancing the overall atmosphere of the campus.
  •  

    Architecture and Layout

     

  • The waterfront promenade is designed along the edge of the water, with seating areas and steps leading towards the water, allowing workers and visitors to enjoy the waterfront.
  • Green spaces are abundant, with parks, alleys, and outdoor spaces designed to encourage social interaction and relaxation.
  • A large park beyond the water body serves both the campus workers and the surrounding community, fostering integration between the campus and its residential neighborhood.
  •  

    Human-Scale Design

     

  • Various elements, such as courtyards, parks, and alleys, are designed at a human scale, providing comfortable, accessible, and interactive spaces.
  • The layout carefully balances open spaces and building placement to create a village-like atmosphere, promoting well-being and social interaction.
