STIHL D2 Waiblingen Neustadt

To accommodate the growing number of employees, a two-storey administrative building with 250 additional workstations was added to the production and storage facility at the D2 plant in Waiblingen-Neustadt, which had been completed in 2015. This significantly eased the shortage of space and strengthened the site’s economic development.

A new entrance area in front of the building forms the welcoming gateway to the complex. In keeping with the design principles of the existing building, the extension has a new material character, combining a monolithic appearance with a high degree of transparency.

The complexity of the project lay partly in the building’s structural limitations, which had originally allowed for only a single-storey extension, as well as in its considerable depth. The addition was therefore constructed as a lightweight steel structure.

A glazed internal mall serves as the main circulation route for the administrative offices and provides access to other parts of the plant. As a result, it takes on the character of a marketplace. The glazed hall also ensures optimum daylighting for all workstations across the entire floor area, particularly those located in the interior zones.

The new spaces accommodate modern open-plan working environments with telephone booths, coffee points, various meeting areas, a cafeteria and rooms for sports classes.
