Notes
The building ensemble of the insurance company LVM in Muenster,
Germany, was expanded by yet another building. An 18-story office tower
was constructed, to which a three story base building with meeting,
assembly and presentation rooms were attached. The new building is
connected to the existing ones through the lower levels and a bridge on
the 11th floor. The office tower stands with a slight incline and is clad with
diamond-shaped, variably oriented double-facade areas transisting into a
pyramid shaped glazing envelope from the 6th floor. The building consists
of a reinforced concrete skeleton and a composite steel structure with a
centrally located core that serves to stiffen the entire structure. The base
plate and the ground floors have been realized in watertight connection
with a diaphragm wall supporting the excavation as a "white tank". All
long-span roofs and facades as well as the connecting bridge are light
steel / glass structures.
