BMW Delivery Center in Munich, Germany:
The BMW Welt building designed by Wolf Prix of the Vienna-based architectural firm Coop Himmelb(l)au, BMW Welt — or BMW World — joins an impressive list of high-profile architecture projects by German car companies in recent years, including Zaha Hadid’s BMW factory in Leipzig and UNStudio’s Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart. Whether from a passion for well-built machines or a more self-serving interest in architecture’s ability to promote an aura of technological sophistication, the auto companies are underwriting buildings that combine a stunning level of structural refinement with a flair for formal experimentation.
