Rieder Campus: Fertigungshallen

To expand its production capacity, the facade specialist Rieder constructed a new 6,000 m² hall as a hybrid structure combining timber and concrete. Over 1,300 m³ of timber were used in the project, including 180 large timber pyramids as ceiling elements. Their distinctive geometry maximises natural light. The front elevation was clad with production offcuts from the manufacture of glassfibre reinforced concrete facade panels. Through comprehensive data analysis and generative design techniques, the architectural design process was reversed, using existing material as the basis for a new facade concept.
