Ovum

OVUM – A new, prestigious quarter for the district is being created in the trendy western Cologne neighborhood of Braunsfeld.

The office and hotel campus, which will be complemented by restaurants and retail space, is particularly notable for its high-quality architectural concept. The oval plaza between the individual buildings offers an exceptional quality of life. The DGNB Gold and Wired Score Gold certifications complete the picture of this future-oriented and sustainable neighborhood.

It’s all in the mix

The project involves the construction of a new four-part building complex with a two-story underground car park. The site is located in the western Cologne district of Braunsfeld, between high-quality residential areas in the south and commercial structures in the north.

Public space with a high quality of life

A neighborhood is being built on the approximately 12,000 m² site, which combines office, hotel, restaurant, and retail uses. The individual buildings are arranged around a striking oval-shaped public square, which will enliven the surrounding area even outside office hours thanks to the mix of uses.

In a good neighborhood

The building ensemble creates a street space with a continuous façade along Stolberger Straße and Eupener Straße, as well as attractive spatial sequences. The five- to six-story clinker-brick buildings rise above a 5.75-meter-high entrance base consisting of high-quality exposed concrete arches. The design creates attractive spatial sequences: from the guided path between the buildings to an opening oval plaza.
