Velum am Arnulfpark

The Arnulfpark development turned what was once a container rail terminal into one of Munich’s inner-city oases. The downtown district and main train station can be reached on foot, the Mittlerer Ring motorway and railway tracks lie in the immediate vicinity. The sustainability of the compact, urbane and green construction concept is equally documented in the four ‘elements’ characterised by Plato which have lent their names to the different quarters encompassing the park: fire, water, earth and air. In addition to 27 flats (totalling 1800 m²), Velum, the 7-storey residential and business building with a day-care centre in the midst of the park, offers space for gastronomy (570 m²), offices (1800 m²), retail and commercial business (1800 m²). A rare case of balanced urban diversity in a green environment and a modern sculptural manifestation.
