The third magazine issued by Behnisch Architekten is dedicated to the theme “Education and Research”. If we follow our calling, our profession as architects, it seems only natural to structure this magazine around our work. After all, we think first and foremost in architectural constructs.

Education is a valuable asset and in today’s age forms the basis of a successful partnership agreement. We have designed this magazine based on that principle. Colleagues, friends, acquaintances, constructors, the users of our buildings all with specialist knowledge, have all kindly supported our efforts with text contributions.

The competition for one building in the end resulted in three new buildings linked together, the WIPO Campus, which is presented in this booklet: an administration building, completed in 2011, a conference hall and a smaller reception building, both opened in 2014.
