4. The winner of the architectural competition to design the new Sedus office building in
Dogern, Germany, has been announced: the Munich-based architect’s office Allmann Sattler
Wappner
Waldshut, 20 February 2009
Leading international furniture manufacturer Sedus Stoll launched a design competition to collect
initial concepts for yet another new building in Dogern, Germany, with the latter intended to
complement the development building currently under construction. With the aim of concentrating
energy and synergies in a single location, a new building featuring offices, seminar rooms and a
showroom is to be erected for the departments still based at the company’s original Waldshut
premises; the offices should be a harmonious addition to the rest of the company campus.
First prize and with it an invitation to finalise their competition entry went to the Munich-
based architect’s office Allmann Sattler Wappner. The three other entrant firms each
received a runners-up prize of equal merit: Münster-based Bolles + Wilson, LAVA and Wulf &
Partner, both from Stuttgart.
Spring 2011 has been set as the target for the completion of construction works.
“The conclusive presentation submitted by Allmann Sattler Wappner stole the show because it
integrates our corporate workplace design philosophy: ‘Place 2.5 – the new emotional office culture’.
The attraction of the building design lies in its unusually flexible, starburst floor plan and its
transparency”, explained Sedus’ CEO, Dr. Bernhard E. Kallup, also a member of the adjudication
panel.
