DC Global Training Center Stuttgart

A multifunctional building complex for Daimler AG was developed in the center of Stuttgart-Vaihingen.

The complex includes workshops for passenger cars and trucks, training rooms, offices, a film studio from which assembly processes are broadcast live around the world, and a canteen. A glazed hall serves as the architectural landmark of the complex, functioning as a foyer, meeting place, and exhibition forum.

A two-story underground car park completes the complex, which presents itself as an open building along a pedestrian axis, characterized by generous, wave-shaped glass façades.

BFK Architekten was commissioned by the general contractor to prepare the construction and detailed design documentation and to coordinate the building services and operational systems, based on the design by KBK Architekten GmbH, Stuttgart.
