Royal Stables, Leibniz University
For many years, the erstwhile royal stables were used as a workshop by the mechanical engineering faculty. After the department moved into a new build, the university was able to transform the building, which enjoys protected architectural status, into a communications and meeting hub for the sciences, arts and industry. The modern furnishing in the multifunctional ceremonial hall, the offices and the workshop and seminar space, creates a link between the past and future.
“We’re delighted that Wilkhahn supported us with this challenging refurbishment and conversion project. The timelessly modern design of the furniture goes superbly with the historical architecture. And the furniture’s sophisticated functionality immediately indicates all the different ways it can be used. These multipurpose aspects are the cornerstones of the interior-design concept for conferences, workshops, galas and cultural events.”
