Von Gerkan, Marg and Partners Architects (gmp) are set to design new Olympus corporate center in Hamburg. The new Olympus Campus development in the Hamburg district of Hammerbrook replaces a smaller building, which no longer meets current standards in terms of function, energy efficiency, and architecture. The concept includes three distinct building volumes; the main building with eleven stories occupies the spine position, with two L-shaped tracts connecting to it. The facade features clinker bricks that are typical of the location. Above the plinth area, the design visually groups two or three stories together. The new development will occupy the entire site, which up to now had various ad hoc buildings.
