Construction of a mixed-use building combining living, working and shopping — P3, 68161 Mannheim, Germany — 7.200 m² — 2013 — Aachener Grundvermögen Kapitalanlagegesellschaft mbH
The things that count in life
With its 7,200 square metres, the P3 mixed-use building is an important element in Mannheim's city centre – in both form and function. It's a structure that perfectly complements the offerings on the Planken pedestrian zone.
In addition to the retail floor, it offers four floors of offices and apartments including terraces on the penthouse level. The façade is characterized by the floor slabs and façade columns, with their different grid spacing. The massive grid structure made of light (Schönbrunn) Main-sandstone affords a new interpretation of the classic perforated façade that marks this city. The two-storey display window façade creates transparency in the retail floors. The building competes a typical Mannheim square and thus creates a more attractive inner courtyard.
