Bugatti Studio
Bugatti Studio
Molsheim, France
Molsheim
is witnessing the renaissance of a legend.
The past and the present merge into one illustrating what Bugatti once
was: the pinnacle of the art of automobile engineering. In September 2005, the
production plant of the 1001-HP Bugatti Veyron was opened at the famous
location. The plant is located to the south of Molsheim in a landscape with the
Chateau St. Jean (1857) at its centre. This consists of an oval studio building
and three test modules.
The building is positioned on a continuous base, which
creates the illusion that the building is floating. This is where the final
construction phase of Bugatti vehicles takes place. The assembly work is done in
the middle of the oval. The front ends are used for motor preassembly and personal
rooms are located on the ground floor as well as offices on the first floor. Test
units are located adjacent to assembly areas with direct vehicle access.
Transparent connections between the modules provide views of the testing
process.
