J. MAYER H. has completed a new pavilion for the FOM University campus in Düsseldorf, Germany. The structure adds to a larger university building completed by the firm five years ago, bringing a new social space to the 86,000-square-foot campus on the site of a former cargo train station.

The pavilion features shaded outdoor terraces underneath a cantilevering floating roof. Described as an annex to the main building, the inside of the facility offers over 1,000 square feet of social spaces.

“The FOM Pavilion adapts to the amorphous green landscape that interweaves the various levels of access to the university building and as a soft soil sculpture covers the underground garage beneath,” the design team explained in a statement. “As an addition to the university building, the pavilion provides spaces for seminars and lectures, workshops and social gatherings.”

For the scheme’s completion, J. MAYER H. partnered with architect on-site Starmans Architeturbüro and GAARKO Gablik Architektur, with landscape design by Lützow 7.

The project is one of several recently completed buildings to feature in our editorial. Last week, we covered PAO’s public restroom in Beijing created from a single meandering wall, as well as HKWN’s waterfront building in Washington D.C. Last month, we covered UNStudio’s Booking.com City Campus HQ in Amsterdam, as well as MVRDV’s The Canyon tower in San Francisco.
