Chapman Taylor Develops Design Concept for State-of-the-Art Light Industrial Park in Düsseldorf Flingern

Chapman Taylor has developed the design concept for a cutting-edge light industrial park in Düsseldorf Flingern, located on the former Thyssen site between Königsberger Straße and Höherweg. Developed by SEGRO, this forward-thinking project will redefine urban industrial spaces by combining modern functionality, sustainability, and community-focused design.

A Vision for Sustainable and Community-Centric Development

The design approach goes beyond constructing industrial facilities; it intends to create an environment that integrates seamlessly with its surroundings, providing tangible benefits for businesses and local communities.

The design concept prioritises:

🌿 Sustainability & Biodiversity – Green building practices, environmental protection measures, and land renaturation efforts to reduce urban sealing and enhance local ecosystems.

🏢 Flexible, Future-ready spaces – Designed to attract a diverse mix of local and regional businesses, the park will support a range of industries with adaptable rental spaces that foster innovation and economic growth.

🏡 A place for people – Thoughtfully designed outdoor areas and public spaces will encourage community engagement, making the industrial park not just a workplace but a place to connect and thrive.

Delivering the future of industrial spaces

Construction for the Düsseldorf Flingern Light Industrial Park began in November 2023 and is set for completion in 2025. This development represents a new benchmark in sustainable, high-quality industrial design, demonstrating how industrial spaces can be both functional and environmentally responsible.

At Chapman Taylor, we are excited to bring our urban and industrial design expertise to this visionary project, shaping the future of industrial parks in Germany and beyond.
