Training Centre with Exhibition and Film Studio

The spatial programme combines traditional training workshops with modern learning areas for control and electrical engineering, robotics as well as Virtual and Augmented Reality. These are complemented by project and training rooms, New Work office areas and a variety of lounge and social spaces. Different forms of learning and working can therefore take place in parallel and be flexibly adapted to groups, content and specific situations.

A key element of the design is the consistent transparency between the different uses: workshops, learning areas and communal zones remain visually connected with one another. Rather than creating a conventionally organised training building with separated functional areas, the result is an open house in which processes, knowledge and technological content can be directly experienced. The exhibition is not conceived as an isolated area, but is closely interwoven with the use of the building. Along the circular route, the company and family history, current developments and future themes are presented. At the same time, views into the ongoing training activities are maintained. In this way, the past, present and future of the company are spatially connected.

In addition to everyday training activities, the building is also designed for different forms of communication and representation. Receptions, presentations, events and informal encounters are naturally integrated into the building’s daily operation. A professional film studio expands these functions with a dedicated space for media production and corporate communication. The new building is therefore conceived not only as a training facility, but as a shared place for trainees, employees, guests and business partners. Training becomes a visible part of the corporate culture and is given an architectural presence at the headquarters that reflects its importance.
