DFB Campus / kadawittfeldarchitektur

Paula Pintos — Mon, 08 May 2023 12:00:00 +0000

The DFB Campus with its football pitches, sports facilities, and new building is embedded in Frankfurt’s city forest on the site of the former racecourse. It is within this green setting with a natural boundary to the surrounding areas that the mixture of structural components, sports fields, small open places, and clearings form a joint campus. The required space, including administrative areas, press center, conference rooms, athletes’ accommodation, and state-of-the-art sports facilities, is arranged below a single long-span roof around the individual sports fields and exterior space.

Neue Direktion Köln / kadawittfeldarchitektur

Cristobal Rojas — Wed, 28 Dec 2016 05:00:00 +0000

With the conversion of the former railway head office, Cologne‘s cityscape has received a new landmark. The new roof design has led to the recreation of the historic mansard roof as well as the generation of terraces with views of the Rhine River that are set between the metal bands surrounding the roof storeys and the set-back office facades.

Daniela Cardenas — Mon, 13 Jun 2016 14:00:00 +0000

Building envelope design of new natural gas power plant and construction of visitor observation deck at Düsseldorf’s Rhine Bend in immediate vicinity of the harbour and city centre. The facade links the observation deck and power plant components creating a complex of buildings which, through an interplay of closed frames and illuminated joints, has become a structural logo for the city’s energy supplier at night.

Karen Valenzuela — Mon, 19 Oct 2015 08:00:00 +0000

Beiersdorf Children’s Day Care Centre / Kadawittfeldarchitektur

Daniel Sánchez — Wed, 21 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

The two-storey new build is located next to a green area on the inner-city grounds of the Beiersdorf AG in Hamburg-Eimsbüttel. The extremely compact rectangular structure is arranged around a central, two-storey multi-purpose room, which functions as a play area and gathering space. The inspiration for the design came from the history of the Beiersdorf AG in that the kindergarten resembles an abstract version of an apothecary cabinet. Featuring a shelf-like structure, the facade caters for a variety of functions and requirements and, at the same time, creates a light and transparent atmosphere indoors. The large window formats provide perfect conditions for play and educational work.

Karen Valenzuela — Tue, 02 Dec 2014 00:00:00 +0000

The world-famous dressage stadium in the Sportpark Soers in Aachen is the largest of its kind and has recently been extended with a grandstand for 1,200 spectators, to accommodate 6,200 visitors in total. Completion of the construction work took place in July in time for the CHIO (Concours Hippique International Officiel), the most prestigious international equestrian tournament in the world, organized by the Aachen Laurensberger Racing Association every summer. Furthermore, next year the 'FEI European Championships Aachen 2015' are scheduled to take place.

Archaeological Pavilion / kadawittfeldarchitektur

Karen Valenzuela — Fri, 07 Feb 2014 00:00:00 +0000

In the heart of Aachen, within view of its famed cathedral, is the city’s most beloved innercity park, the Elisen Garden. During extensive archeological excavations amazing discoveries were made: spanning from the Neolithic period (4700 BC) to the high and late Middle Ages (ca. 910-1500) there is evidence of all essential periods of the history of settlement in Aachen from the birth of Christ to the present.

St. Nikolaus / Kadawittfeldarchitektur

José Tomás Franco — Fri, 03 Jan 2014 01:00:00 +0000

In comparison to a small city, this home for the elderly provides its inhabitants a lively environment through its sequence of passages and places including a foyer, “interior streets,” a green atrium, dining room, and terraced courtyard.

Central Station Salzburg / Kadawittfeld Architektur

Javier Gaete — Fri, 01 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000

Brief Optimization of the track access and roofed enclosures for new platforms within the existing train station added value through an expansion of the underpass into a shopping gallery, access to the trains is enhanced by natural lighting over the generous platform entrances, from a dark access space to an open pedestrian zone. The new organization of the Salzburg train station becomes an urban density project that not only serves the mobility and comfort of the traveller but also creates a public space and connects various districts of the city.

Aachenmünchener Headquarters / Kadawittfeldarchitektur

José Tomás Franco — Fri, 21 Jun 2013 00:00:00 +0000

The annex occupies two blocks of late 19th-century city fabric, and provides a new interpretation of the typical perimeter development with its semi-public and leafy courtyards.

Pappas Headquarters - Mercedes Salzburg / Kadawittfeldarchitektur

José Tomás Franco — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 00:00:00 +0000

The building is located along a prominent urban road leading into Salzburg and can only be viewed when driving by. The dynamics and motion of cars has yielded to a conceptual approach which draws one into the building.

Adidas Laces / kadawittfeldarchitektur

Megan Jett — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 00:00:00 +0000

Research and development building with 1700 working places at the adidas World of Sports campus in Herzogenaurach. In contrast to conventional office typologies, the ring structure developed by kadawittfeldarchitektur lends to the building a double relationship to the landscape – both to the outer surroundings and to the communicative landscape of the atrium. The connecting walkways, “Laces”, efficiently open up access to all office areas without the need to cross through other departments. At the same time they transform the atrium into a creative center of the building that provides an identity.

Celtic Museum / kadawittfeldarchitektur

Megan Jett — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 00:00:00 +0000

This project is a museum for Celtic art, and is in direct proximity to a historic burial mound. Similar to an excavated archaeological find, the metal body of the museum juts out from the landscape and forms a counterpart to the burial mound. More of a mysterious object itself rather than architecture, the museum should be stumbled upon by its visitors as a marker of landscape discovery.

Kuchl Grammar School / kadawittfeldarchitektur

Amber P — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 00:00:00 +0000

Extension of a school by four classrooms and a gymnasium on a very small plot of land within a typical village structure.

Senior Citizens Residence Altenmarkt / Kadawittfeldarchitektur

Nico Saieh — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 00:00:00 +0000

The structure of the senior citizens residence and the social center is in line with the east-west axis that divides the site into two outdoor facilities with different spatial qualities. The public area that rises between the buildings forms an urban crossing for the senior citizens with the town citizens. The private garden (the “hortus conclusos”) provides the senior citizens with a variety of outdoor activities and, if necessary, constant supervision by the nursing staff.

Loft L / adawittfeldarchitektur

Nico Saieh — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 00:00:00 +0000

Loft L is located in the south of Aachen within a mixed context of detached 1-3 story dwellings and single-family homes. The building extension consists of prefabricated timber framework elements placed on top of an existing house from the late 50s. The specific shape was generated according to zoning constraints existing on site. The extension has generated additional living space, a “parent floor” for a young pair with two children. The project and its construction was featured on local TV, and with its unique shape, selection of materials, and the new “view” created, the building can be seen as a role model for similar rooftop extensions.
