Office Building in Modular Construction Impresses with Its Clear Design
This modular building of OPTIRENT Mobilraum Mietservice GmbH at the newly developed Bergneustadt site documents the efficiency of modular construction in terms of aesthetics, functionality and energy efficiency.
The three-storey modular office building has two separate usage units and entrances.
The ground floor and first floor contain commercially used areas such as offices and meeting rooms, while the top floor has a spacious penthouse flat with a surrounding terrace.

The exterior facade on the two lower floors was constructured with a mineral thermal insulation compostie system.
The indented living area was visually seperated from the administration building by a curtain-type rear-ventilated facade made of Trespa® HPL panels, which were fixed invisibly by bonding. The rear-ventilation of the dark facade also offers significant advantages in terms of summer thermal insulation of the flat.

Another special feature of the office building in modular construction is the circumferential parapet made of aluminium composite panels, which were not only guided horizontally but also vertically around the office building.
The parapet was deliberately used as a design element of the facade. Starting vertically at the base of the modular building, the fascia runs completely along the building edge of the living area, forming the pergola and visually separating the modular building from the hall facade.

The canopy of the modular building i sjust as special. Our architects and planners deliberately wanted the canopy to be as slim as possible, but still reflect the facade structure of the clad areas. The statically necessary cantilevers were thermally decoupled and insulated all around.
The drainage level was placed between the cantilever arms by means of complex edge constructions, so that rainwater can be drained off at the front via a longitudinal rain gutter. This technique made it possible to place the substructure of the upper and lower cladding directly on the cantilevered steel girders, thus achieving the desired reduction in construction height.

In accordance with the visual separation of the usage units, the heating and lighting systems of the modular office building are also set up separately. The administration area is heated with a highly efficient panel heating and control system.
Separate circulation pumps for each heating circuit and a central control system provide each room with heat, precisely and according to demand. The server takes over the temperature regulation and controls the decentralised pumps in each individual room or heating circuit. The attic flat is supplied with conventional technology, supported by solar thermal energy.

The interior lighting of the modern office building, like the exterior lighting, was consistently designed using LED technology from renowned manufacturers. The highlight of the lighting design can be seen in particular inside the office area: the ceiling module luminaires above the stairwell.
The LED strip running around the gallery picks up on the concept of the aluminium composite panels of the exterior façade, starting vertically above the baseboard of the wall and running around the gallery.
The exterior lighting focuses on timeless elegance. In addition to the usual wall-mounted and post-top luminaires, a 4.5 m high light element was also installed to illuminate the driveway.

The particularly modern impression of the transparently designed entrance area of the administration is complemented and underlined by a filigree all-glass railing on the prefabricated concrete staircase.
Floor-to-ceiling aluminium windows in the entrance area, floor-to-ceiling glass elements next to the office doors as well as high-quality multi-layered glass system wall elements, with increased sound insulation requirements, bring plenty of natural light to the workplaces in addition to the large windows in the offices.

The furnishings and design of the individual rooms in the modular building were deliberately varied. Floor coverings range from modern large-format stone tiles for the gallery, staircase and sanitary areas to carpets for offices and vinyl coverings for technical and utility rooms. The wall and ceiling design was mainly done with painter's fleece and then painted matt white. Washable wall coverings were used in some rooms. The ceilings in the offices and utility rooms are fitted with acoustic ceiling panels.
This modular building is convincing in every respect due to the high quality of the different materials, the architectural design, the energy-efficient equipment and the monitoring and security technology. It demonstrates the unrestricted and contemporary form of modular buildings.
