Hyparschale Magdeburg

The Hyparschale in Magdeburg, designed by Ulrich Müther and opened in 1969, was comprehensively renovated and restored between 2019 and 2024 on behalf of the City of Magdeburg, following plans by gmp. Its use as a multifunctional venue for events and exhibitions was retained.

The interior was completely restructured. Cubes with gallery levels were inserted and connected by walkable bridges. This gallery level allows the open space with its curved roof to be fully experienced. The lighting was specified to ensure excellent glare control for the wide range of usage scenarios. The large pendant luminaires are derived from the original ceiling design. The goal was to minimize the number of suspension points, use a regular positioning grid, and at the same time meet visual comfort and lighting requirements. For this reason, the entire emergency lighting system is integrated into the general lighting.
