BMW Group Talent Campus, Munich

allmannwappner was commissioned by the BMW Group to design the training and education center as part of the new Talent Campus in Munich. Located on the area of a former multi-storey car park in the north-east of the main site, the open campus provides a new place for learning, development and exchange for around 40,000 employees at the Munich site.

With a public café and newly designed green spaces, the training and education center opens up to the surrounding urban space, creating a smooth transition into the neighbourhood.
 

The hybrid timber construction houses modern training rooms and workshops, as well as a staff restaurant and a public café. The floors are designed as flexible, open spaces that can accommodate different uses over time and be adapted to changing requirements throughout the building’s life cycle.

The central, light-flooded atrium is a defining feature. Open staircases provide access to the various platforms, which offer collaboration areas for trainees, spaces for informal exchanges as well as temporary learning and working areas.
 

The roof areas of the new building are also used in a variety of ways. In addition to spacious workshop areas, there are green outdoor recreation areas with views over the BMW Group plant and the city towards the mountains.
