City-Tower-BO – New gateway to Bochum city center

Mixed-use underlines the openness of the university and cultural city

On the site of a former parking garage in Bochum, List Develop Commercial is realizing the City-Tower-BO as investor and project developer. According to a design by Gerber Architects, a mix of working, habitation and living will be created on approx. 20,000 m². The planning of the mixed-use building in the center of Bochum, which is more than 60 meters high, offers the opportunity to rethink the area of a former bunker and then a parking garage in a top urban development location. In keeping with Bochum’s versatility as a city of science and a cultural magnetc, the City-Tower, located in the immediate vicinity of the main train station, offers a versatile mix of uses. Hotel, office, serviced apartments, gastronomy and retail are spread over 21 levels.

The vertical densification concept of the City-Tower is more than just a sensible solution for the corner site between Südring, Universitätsstraße and railroad lines. With the chessboard-like skyscraper silhouette, Bochum will receive another striking building block in the city’s entrée. A spacious, two-story foyer and large panoramic windows emphasize the conceptual openness of the City Tower. From the Skybar you can enjoy the view of Bochum even in the evening hours. The new multi-storey parking lot positioned behind the high-rise offers sufficient parking space for users and visitors. The City-Tower with its retail offerings is also an enrichment for the residents. As the “gateway to the city centre”, the City-Tower forms an architectural welcoming gesture at one of the most important access roads to Bochum city centre and opposite the main railway station.

Exhibition on a research project of the Technical University (TU) Dortmund

This year, the exhibition at the Dortmunder U celebrates the tenth anniversary of the former brewery building as a centre of art and creativity.

The anniversary exhibition “UmBAUkultur” allows a look into the past of the U and its transformation from an industrial production site to a place of remembrance of industrial culture and finally to cultural buildings. The exhibition ‘UmBAUkultur’ is part of the research project ‘Stadtbauten Ruhrgebiet’. The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and is a cooperation between the TU Dortmund, the Museum Folkwang and the Baukunstarchiv NRW.

Due to the current events there is no official opening event and the opening hours may change. Start: 22.08.2020 End: 30.09.2020

Award for Geosciences in Munich

Third prize at the Polis Award for Munich‘s “showcase of science“

Our new building for the Faculty of geosciences received 3rd prize in the category Intelligent redensification. This category, which was awarded for the first time, honors innovative solutions in the field of dual inner development of cities. The building is convincing with its typological concept. In the future, the LMU’s Department for Earth- and Environmental Sciences and the Bavarian Natural History Collections will come together under one roof. A public exhibition and entrance hall, the glass “showcase of science”, will be located in the center of the meander-shaped new building. The multi-layered urban added value convinced the jury: “Not only has an urgently needed, coherent campus structure been created here, but at the same time unused urban space has been filled with new public functions”, said Reiner Nagel, Chair of the Federal Foundation of Baukultur, in his laudation. The Polis Award 2020 was presented at the Polis Convention, which this year took place digitally for the first time under the motto “make change happen”.

Campus Glashütte Norderstedt

3.nd prize, one-phase competition

The competition for the replacement school centre with sports hall and outdoor facilities has been decided: Gerber Architekten received 3rd prize in the realization competition for its design.

A new replacement building is planned for the Lise-Meitner-Gymnasium, the community school Ossenmoorpark and the district library and school library. The two existing sports halls are also to be replaced by new buildings. The new school building is to be understood as an open structure that reacts in a differentiated way to the granularity of its surroundings and wants to “interlock” with them in scale and formulation. The special features of the location, such as topography and existing greenery, form the basis for the multi-layered formulation of a very differentiated building structure. The heart of the school centre is the assembly hall. It is designed as a four-storey atrium, with reference to the outside space on all levels and in all directions. In it all paths within the school centre meet – from all sides and at all levels.

‘Young stage’ in Dortmund

Recognition

Gerber Architects have received recognition for their design in the ‘Young Stage’ competition. A building was to be planned on the theatre grounds in the area of the current Young Opera House, which was intended from the outset as a temporary venue, to be used jointly by the Children’s and Youth Theatre (KJT), the Opera House and, for selected productions, the Ballet. The idea is based on a composition of a compact ‘House of Theatre Worlds’ and a ‘floating roof’, which connects all adjacent functions in a natural and maximally open manner, thereby dissolving the boundaries between outside and inside. For the young stage of the Theater Dortmund, a structurally clear and reduced structure is proposed, which captures and calms the existing heterogeneous structure of opera house and playhouse in an urban space.

The quarter is to grow together to form a complete ensemble and as such create a new urban quality in this location.

Gerber Architects Residential construction

Current housing projects in Hamburg

“Residental Buildings at Quartierspark”, Construction: 2016-2020
The project “Living at the Quarter Park” is located in the district south of the Elbe Neugraben-Fischbek in Hamburg. The two buildings with a total of 68 residential units are designed as two- and three-room apartments and are lined up as individual townhouses. When it comes to facade design, clinker is the predominant material. The design of the outdoor facilities, including the playground and the parking spaces, was part of the task of our landscape team.

“Residential Buildings at Sports Area Circle Stellingen, field A”, Construction: 2016-2020
The residential development with daycare on the sports field ring forms an independent quarter in the Center of the Stellingen district, embedded in a park-like landscape which is characterized by old and valuable trees. The individual houses are slightly offset from one another and varying in height to an arrangement total of eight building blocks. They mediate to the heterogeneous surrounding buildings, existing from detached houses and apartment buildings. The idea of ​​the individual houses is further formulated in the Facade design. Each house is given light materiality Schade. By using different colored clinker bricks or by changing dressings a diversity in unity is formed.

In the “projects” section you will find more information on the above presented projects.
