Unser neues Office entstand in einer denkmalgeschützten ehemaligen Textilfabrik in der Münchner Isarvorstadt – nach der Hopfenpost und der Knödelfabrik bereits das dritte Industriegebäude in unserer Geschichte. Was wir für unsere Kunden denken, leben wir selbst: Bestand hat eine Geschichte, die es wert ist, weitergeschrieben zu werden. Mit der Transformation dieses Ortes haben wir genau das getan – und eine Arbeitswelt geschaffen, die seinen Charakter bewahrt und ihn neu mit Leben füllt.

Der Eingangsbereich unseres neuen Offices ist offen, gemütlich und wirkt fast wie ein Wohnzimmer. Die sorgfältig ausgewählte Einrichtung schafft eine Atmosphäre, die einlädt. Kein Empfang im klassischen Sinne. Sondern der erste Moment von Zugehörigkeit. Unser Hub & Home beginnt hier.

Für unser neues Office in München haben wir als Architekt:innen für uns selbst gedacht. Entstanden ist eine Arbeitswelt, die uns wirklich entspricht und in der wir uns sehr wohlfühlen.

The way to our office – Part 2
From an industrial shell to a workplace that truly reflects who we are. Every detail was shaped around the way we collaborate, create and connect, turning a historic building into a living expression of our culture. We celebrated more than a new office – we celebrated the start of our next chapter.

The way to our office – Part 1
Designing our own studio was a rare opportunity to put into practice everything we believe about great workplaces. We transformed an existing building into a space that reflects how we work today – open, collaborative and designed around people. Every transformation starts with a vision, and this is where ours began.

Topping-out ceremony on Landwehrstraße.

Few parts of Munich are currently undergoing as much change as the area around the main railway station. The development surrounding the new central station is set to become one of the city’s largest urban transformation areas in the years ahead. Our project, , is part of this transformation – and last week, we celebrated its topping-out ceremony.

By retaining the existing structure, we are helping to ensure that the building’s history remains visible. We are continuing its story while giving it a new purpose. At the same time, we are increasing the existing floor space by 30 per cent, made possible by an efficient structural solution – right in the heart of the city and within an extremely constrained site.

Following Fritz, landN is our second adaptive reuse project in the neighbourhood. The historic building is being transformed into a workplace where interaction is central to the concept. We are opening up the ground floor to the street, with a café, entrance and event space connecting the building to its surroundings. In this way, landN contributes to the lively ground-floor spaces that the neighbourhood needs. We are also bringing the courtyard and roof back into use, adding lightweight, flexible steel structures that create space for people to meet.

In this way, the building captures the atmosphere of Landwehrstraße and brings its urban character to life. A networked building is taking shape – a place that combines flexibility, proximity and urban quality, and reimagines the modern workplace as an open, connected environment.

Thank you to .progress, our client, as well as our planning team and all the contractors working on site. Without you, the building would not have reached this stage.

Completion is scheduled for spring 2027. We are looking forward to everything still to come.

Wellbeing isn't a soft fact. It's the toughest location factor there is.

Daylight boosts cognitive performance by up to 20 per cent. Poor acoustics create measurable stress. Air quality directly affects concentration. It sounds like comfort — in reality, it's performance, and a hard economic fact.

For us, wellbeing is a design principle from day one: materials that age with dignity, light that follows the body clock, spaces that open outwards, because a view of greenery isn't a luxury — it's a basic need.

The result: places where people don't just work, but genuinely thrive.

The most valuable conversations never make it onto a calendar.

The best conversations we know happened on the staircase, at the coffee corner between two departments, in the lounge that nobody needs on paper — and everyone uses.

That's exactly where we see our role: serendipity can't be forced, but it can be made more likely — through circulation that favours the lively path, through third spaces built as strategic infrastructure, not an afterthought.

"You can't schedule serendipity, but you can invite it in," says Timo Brehme, Managing Partner at CSMM. "The most valuable thing a space can deliver is the moment two people strike up a conversation they'd never have had otherwise."

The office is a place of value creation. Hub & Home as the model for the future.

The question isn't "how many days a week in the office?" anymore. It's "why would they want to be there at all?"
We think of offices as dual-purpose systems — a Hub, where decisions get made and knowledge flows, and a Home, that offers security and belonging. For younger talent especially, this is a development issue: they learn through proximity, through casual conversation, through a culture no onboarding document can capture.

Flight to quality isn't a trend. It's the simple truth that people go where it's worth going.
