The main uses of hotel, office spaces, and supporting amenities like restaurants, cafés, bakeries, retail, fitness, coworking, and mobility hubs embody a cutting-edge urban mix. But we laid it all out as a simple, practical village – with alleys, squares, and individual buildings.

Three separate non-orthogonal buildings, each spanning five to six stories, cluster around a public courtyard. The red-orange facades, with their strict orthogonal design, unify the hotel and office complex, while the varied articulation of the facade elements adds a dynamic feeling. However, the project’s defining feature lies in the striking, sharply tapering spaces between the buildings.

Featuring green facades, gently angled to maximize sunlight, along with green roofs, the triangular courtyard serves as the green heart of the complex – also known as the “Green Valley.” Seen from above, with its gorge-like incisions, it evokes the image of a canyon. Hence, the idea of a Cannstatt Canyon led to the name CANNION.

CANNION embraces the mixed-use concept, offering a diverse range of workspaces. The highly adaptable office landscape embodies the New Work philosophy, fostering focused work in quiet areas and (in)formal collaboration in flexible configurations.

Equally modern are the sustainable, energy-saving features, earning CANNION DGNB Gold certification. High-insulation windows minimize heat loss, while green facades and roofs enhance the work climate naturally. Photovoltaic systems planned for all roofs will offset part of the annual electricity needs, with excess power feeding back into the public grid. The charging station infrastructure for electric vehicles promotes alternative mobility. CANNION also boasts top-notch digital infrastructure, achieving a coveted WiredScore Platinum rating.
