The concept for the Media Bridge, a highly unusual one for Munich, was realised on a very limited site within a building complex. This three-storey high building, measuring 90 x 23 metres lies horizontally on top of two massive pillars in which the main entrances are situated. The depth of the building and the ceiling height of 3.8 metres are unusual for an office building. These dimensions translate into large open spaces of flexible use and a loft-like character within a kind of horizontal high-rise. The position of the building is also unusual as it seems to rest diagonally across the interior courtyard of the already existing buildings.
