presents a thoroughly diverse selection of projects completed worldwide between 2015 and 2019 in terms of structural tasks, scale and cultural context.
This period includes some of the architectural firm's best-known and award-winning buildings in Germany, such as the refurbishment and conversion of the Kulturpalast Dresden, the extension of the Kunsthalle Mannheim and the Elbbrücken underground and suburban railway station in Hamburg.
