Microsonic building by F&G Geddert
Copper Stories
Copper’s golden alloy – applied as a thoroughly modern material to this corporate headquarters – heralds the replacement of old heavy industries with the new high-tech. The recently completed building is at the heart of a historical steel production area’s regeneration in Dortmund, within Germany’s Ruhr region.
Since 1990, Dortmund-based Microsonic has concentrated on the development and production of innovative ultrasonic sensors for industrial automation technology. Its new headquarters building has not only doubled production capacity but also provides a light, attractive and open working environment, in keeping with the ethos of an innovative technology company.
Designed by architects F&G Geddert and plus 4930, the three-storey building combines manufacturing and storage areas, development laboratories and an office level for management, sales and administration.
