Staying one step ahead is of fundamental importance in IT security. Scientists are researching effective methods to prevent the ever-changing dangers from the internet and to protect privacy from digital intruders. The fact that this is not abstract research hardly needs an explanation. The digitalisation of working and private life was once again accelerated by the pandemic and has carried the importance of cyber security into the last corners of everyday life. Research is about thoroughly understanding contexts in order to then produce sound and innovative solutions to practical problems.<\/strong> <\/p>\n

The Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy, funded by the federal and state governments, was founded in 2019 as an interdisciplinary centre of excellence and is housed on the campus of the Ruhr University Bochum in the start-up phase. In order to provide an optimal and future-proof working environment for the planned 350 employees in 18 research groups, the institute will have its own building.<\/p>\n

The new building of the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy is being constructed in the heart of the Mark 51\u02da7 development area of the former Opel site. Where only a few years ago the last car rolled off the production line, an ecosystem of top research institutions, start-ups and high-tech companies is now emerging in the Science City of Bochum in the immediate vicinity. The complex research tasks require a structural concept that supports the collaborative exchange of knowledge both within the institute and with external research groups in networked working environments. The building design we have presented enables both theme-focused work and interaction and communication in its adaptable laboratory and office areas. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fa\u00e7ade<\/h6>

The building’s external fa\u00e7ade presents itself as a compact, linearly elongated volume with a homogeneous appearance. The rounded building edges and the interplay of the ribbon fa\u00e7ade with the surrounding horizontal louvres give the contours both a calm bearing and a lively blur.<\/p>

Including the optional extension, the room programme of approx. 14,000 m\u00b2 GFA comprises approx. 5,000 m\u00b2 offices, electronics and hardware laboratories, computer and server rooms as well as a seminar area with a lecture hall for 200 people and a cafeteria. The building has dimensions of approx. 100 x 60 metres and a height of approx. 20 metres.<\/p>

Townhall<\/h6>

The central access is via the building-high foyer, the “Townhall”, with the naturally lit air space from above and from the sides and the surrounding galleries. A wide flight of steps leads from the main entrance to the first floor, and from there single flights of stairs arranged one above the other lead to the other floors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The plan figure of the new institute building follows the urban planning guidelines and takes up the building lines. The edges and heights of the five-storey office building correspond with the neighbouring buildings, close the street line and give the neighbourhood square a clearly defined structural frame. Towards the green corridor to the west, the building boundary is used to form a clearly defined structural edge between the laboratory area of the institute and the public area, but with a graduated height. This edge is also taken up by the optional extension, so that the maximum possible expansion is used with the second expansion stage.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

With its galleries, the foyer is a multifunctional circulation, recreation and communication area across all floors and promotes professional exchange for jointly developed solutions with arranged and also spontaneous meetings of staff. In the galleries, smaller seating areas and meeting islands provide opportunities for conversation and exchange.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Eller + Eller Architekten, as process leader in a consortium with Meyer Architekten, were able to prevail over the renowned competition in the award procedure with competition for the planned new institute building on the former Opel site.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

The decisive factor for the jury was the expertise and the pioneering conceptual approaches in the field of modern working environments, which are becoming increasingly important, especially in the research sector. On the one hand, collaboration and connectivity between researchers have become the central accelerator of agile collaboration. On the other hand, the tangible identity of the institute as an emotional and meaningful place is placed at the centre of all path relationships. The building concept form follows the “ALL IN ONE” strategy developed by Eller + Eller Architects for years, that almost all uses can be implemented in any part of the building, even in future adaptations of use. The building thus represents a new type of future-oriented and sustainable solution.<\/p>
