Seven-story wodden buildings at Munich

Wood creates space: new buildings and elevations in Munich's Werksviertel district

Spaces for new urban life are being created by modernizing existing industrial buildings and adding forward-looking architecture. The LOVT Munich concept is based on respectfully preserving existing structures and using wood, a renewable resource, for new construction.

Until the 1990s, the Werksviertel district was home to several large industrial companies, most notably the Pfanni factories. The entire area is part of a major urban development project that will create 7,000 jobs, 1,000 apartments, and five hotels. The “LOVT” project is also located in this area and is managed by real estate developers Union Investment and Hines. LOVT Munich will become the southern gateway to the Werksviertel, connecting the entire urban district with its immediate surroundings and the city.

The concept is based on respectfully preserving existing structures and aims to create a creative, green meeting place for tenants, visitors, and the neighborhood. The construction phase of LOVT Vision includes renovating and rehabilitating existing parts of the building, as well as building new structures and wooden extensions.

LignoAlp is constructing two seven-story buildings and three three-story elevations, as well as prefabricated facades for the construction company MARKGRAF.
