Extension for the Staatstheater Nürnberg in the courtyard of the Congress Hall
In the heart of the historic Congress Hall in Nürnberg, a unique extension for the Staatstheater is taking shape — vibrant, green, and future-oriented. We are responsible for planning a central part of the modern stage technology. The Nürnberg City Council laid the foundation for this visionary project in 2022; since March 2023, a design-build approach has enabled rapid implementation by an experienced general contractor. The new venue integrates harmoniously into the historic surroundings, bringing nature symbolically back to this special site through green areas and contemporary design. Our planning services ensure innovative, tailor-made solutions and reliably support the project through to completion. The result is a cultural space that uniquely combines inspiration and tradition.
