BMW Headquarters

The BMW Headquarters consists of four cylindrical towers reaching 101 meters high, constructed with concrete and aluminum materials in modern architectural style.

Austrian architect Karl Schwanzer designed this corporate headquarters, which opened in 1973 during Munich's growth period following the 1972 Olympic Games.

The building's four vertical cylinders represent the fundamental components of automobile engines, reflecting German engineering and industrial architecture.

The 22-floor structure houses 1,500 employees across 72,000 square meters of space, with two basement levels and contemporary open-plan office configurations.

The tower structure hangs from a central support system instead of traditional foundations, demonstrating an engineering method uncommon in 1960s architecture.
