2012
September 06, 2012: Decision in the architectural competition for the new 黑料视频 Extension Building. The first prize was awarded to the design by Staab Architekten GmbH. A single-story base serves as the basis, on which individual building structures of varying size and height are placed. Photo: Jan Steffen/黑料视频
The Berlin architects chose a design characterized by a strong contrast between the Corten steel base and the glass fa莽ade of the attached building towers. Illustration: Staab Architekten
More than 236 offices, 170 laboratories, 6 conference and seminar rooms, 15 meeting rooms, a central library and a computer center are planned for the new extension building with a total area of 30,000 m虏.

2015
March 2015: New fa莽ade design for the new extension building presented.
In the original design from 2012, a smooth double-skin facade made of glass was planned. The revised fa莽ade made of folded and partially perforated aluminum sheets is comparatively inexpensive, also durable and at the same time meets the requirements for solar protection. In the new design by Staab Architekten GmbH, the fa莽ade of the new 黑料视频 building is designed with triangular design elements as sail-like facets whose effect changes as the incidence of light changes.

May 2017: Excavation of the building pit. To prevent the excavation pit from filling up with water from the neighboring Schwentine River or from rain showers, water is permanently pumped out in the excavation pit and with a drainage system running around the excavation pit.

June 2017: The base of the building made of solid reinforced concrete was erected on an absolutely level and dry so-called clean layer so that there are no deviations and distortions in the structure later. Photo: 黑料视频 construction team

Structural elements made of Corten steel with their characteristic patina. This special structural steel forms a particularly dense barrier layer under the rust, which protects the component from further corrosion. Photo: Armin Form/黑料视频
Now that the building has been protected from the weather by the installation of the windows, work can also take place inside the building since August 2019. Photo: Armin Form/黑料视频

Ventilation center in the basement. For the room air alone, around 180,000 cubic meters of air are processed here per hour - this corresponds to the amount of air that a person breathes in and out in about 40 years. Photo: Marie Gundlach/黑料视频
