The existing building, built by Th. Quaysin for Audi-Union AG in 1938-39, was built at the time with the aim of making the greatest possible savings and the aim of a construction method that was as low in iron as possible.  All current interventions and renovation work are designed according to the same principle and underline the original character of the building.
