Landeshaus Köln, Office building in Deutz, Germany
The Landeshaus Köln features a four-wing steel skeleton structure with a freestanding ground floor that extends over the riverfront promenade at Kennedy-Ufer.
The construction of this administrative center took place from 1956 to 1959 following a design competition that attracted 91 architectural firms with no first prize awarded.
The building demonstrates functionalist principles of Bauhaus architecture, incorporating glass and aluminum facade elements with blue-green panels in the parapets.
The central administration building contains five floors arranged around an inner courtyard with staircases positioned at each corner for efficient circulation.
The ground floor support system allows unobstructed views through the building toward the Rhine River, integrating the structure with its riverside location.
