Company Cafeteria in Ditzingen

Concise structure: Frank Barkow comments on a company cafeteria in Ditzingen

Over the last ten years, the German high-tech firm Trumpf has expanded and renovated the company’s campus. After constructing a number of buildings accommodating production and administration, its most recent addition is a company cafeteria, located at the centre of the compound, for the 2000 employees. The low-slung pavilion with hexagonal footprint stands out from the surrounding company buildings and makes reference to its special function as commons and meeting place.
