An urban quarter created by people for people, combining the qualities of city life with the tranquility and beauty of nature. In one of Munich's greenest locations, yet only a stone's throw away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre, a place is being built that is unique in Munich.
People from all walks of life and backgrounds come together here. A variety of apartment types ensure that everyone can find their perfect home: from studio flats to family apartments or townhouses, from communal cluster living to privately financed homes. ORPLID stands for diversity, openness and the freedom to live the way that suits you best.
But ORPLID is much more than just a place to live: it is a neighbourhood that breathes community spirit. Freely accessible sports facilities, health services, a workshop, versatile communal areas and urban gardening make ORPLID a lively meeting place for socialising, creativity and well-being. Complemented by small businesses such as a bicycle shop, restaurants and a bakery, and with everything you need for everyday life within easy reach, it is an incomparable place – a neighbourhood that combines the best of city and nature and makes life noticeably easier and more liveable.
ORPLID – a neighbourhood that shows how Munich will live tomorrow.

The studio apartments combine commercial and residential use, with separate access for flexible or separate use. The aim is to attract small-scale, non-disruptive businesses that strengthen local supply and neighbourhood life, such as tailors, workshops, or cultural offerings. Concepts such as workshops or repair cafés that promote sustainability and education are particularly welcome.
The bicycle shop is a central component of the neighbourhood concept and is to be built on the ground floor, covering an area of approximately 150 square meters. In addition to sales and service, it will provide technical support for the neighbourhood's own bicycle-sharing pool and organize repair cafés as self-help courses. In this way, it will make a significant contribution to the mobility concept and sustainability.
The hobby workshop is part of the community offering and is aimed at residents and small businesses. Neighbourhood service providers such as caretakers can also use it and do not need their own workshop. The Repair Café for bicycles, small electrical appliances, and woodwork is also organized here, supporting the sustainable approach of “repairing instead of throwing away.” Equipment and support are provided by an external partner, while administration and booking are handled via the neighbourhood app.
The neighbourhood hub forms the heart of community life and combines key functions such as services, local amenities, a café, and a library. It creates a lively meeting place where residents can get support in their everyday lives, run errands, or simply hang out. With its diverse range of offerings, the hub strengthens community spirit, promotes exchange and identification with the neighbourhood, and is thus an essential building block for its high quality of life.
Co-working complements the neighbourhood concept as an alternative to working from home and enables more compact living. It is operated by the neighbourhood management and supervised by the receptionist. Open workspaces, individual workstations, telephone booths, and small group rooms are planned for a total of around 30–35 workstations. This creates a flexible space for concentrated work and exchange, which is also connected to the event areas.
The event area is a flexible space for culture, education, meetings, sports, or as a complement to co-working. Private celebrations and the integration of gastronomy—from catering to summer use of the open spaces—are also planned. Organization and administration are handled by the neighbourhood management. Thanks to its versatile equipment, the area can be adapted to different formats and thus offers a wide range of uses.
A communal area is being created in the basement. One possible use would be a music rehearsal room for all age groups and/or music lessons. At the same time, the area remains open to further ideas for versatile use of the space.
The café at ORPLID is more than just a place to enjoy a meal: it is a meeting place for anyone who wants to socialize and connect with others in a pleasant atmosphere—a lively hub of the neighbourhood.
Gastronomy plays a central role in the neighbourhood and promotes healthy, responsible eating. The plan is to create a food hub/food court with a variety of vendors offering diversity and variety. In addition, an affordable lunch option for students and residents could be part of the concept. With around 500 sq m of space, this will create a place that combines food, socializing, and community, enriching neighbourhood life.
This communal area offers space for various amenities, such as a laundromat that all residents can use—a place that makes everyday life easier and is shared by the community.
Medical Fitness is divided into two areas: On the one hand, there is a physiotherapy practice, which is operated independently and supports inclusive living. On the other hand, there is a communal fitness area with equipment and courses, which is managed by the operator. Administration and bookings are handled by neighbourhood management and an app. In addition, sports activities can also be held on the roof terrace and in the event area.
A weekly market is planned for the large area between construction phases 3.2 and 3.5, which will offer a wide range of regional products for a lively shopping experience and strengthen community spirit in the neighbourhood.
Within walking distance is a modern daycare centre with several groups, offering children aged three and above a safe and inspiring environment.
The spacious playground features a specially designed dragon with a slide in its mouth and a fire-breath feature, inviting children to embark on imaginative adventures. It is the perfect place for all children to run around, play, relax, and spend time together.
At the small Dragon playground at ORPLID, explorers of all ages can let their imaginations run wild, play to their hearts' content, and enjoy the feeling of freedom to the fullest.
The extensive orchard with its variety of trees offers space to relax, play, and harvest — nature right in the centre of the community.
In the still undeveloped construction phase 4, an area will be temporarily made available for urban gardening. This will allow residents to use the space collectively until the later implementation takes place. The offer strengthens the community and enables flexible, temporary use.
The townhouses in Orplid combine independence with community: each house offers private space, while the architecture and location create a tangible sense of belonging to the neighbourhood.
Practical and convenient: the bicycle wash facility at ORPLID allows you to keep your bikes clean and well maintained at all times – right on site and easy to use.
The newly uncovered Hachinger Bach stream flows right past the ORPLID, creating an idyllic atmosphere. It is an ideal meeting place to spend time together and enjoy pleasant hours by the water.
The neighbourhood bike-sharing program is managed by the local bike shop. This not only ensures reliable technical maintenance, but also the regular organization of the service — for sustainable mobility right on the doorstep.
This area is specially designed for events and offers the ideal setting for unforgettable experiences in the open air. During the summer months, the square is also used for outdoor dining—unless it is reserved for events.

The lush greenery makes ORPLID a green oasis in the middle of the city.
Fruit orchards, urban gardening areas, and blossoming alleys invite visitors to linger, while the imaginative Dragon playground offers adventure and fun for children.
Plants cool in summer, provide shade, promote well-being, and create places of relaxation for young and old alike.
The innovative sponge city principle reinforces this approach: a retention roof is being built on top of the underground car park to store rainwater and supply it to the green spaces in courtyards and alleys above. This makes the neighbourhood more resilient to dry periods, reduces water consumption, and benefits nature, the city, and people alike.
With this approach, the Rothenfußer family, as owners and developers, are transforming ORPLID into a neighbourhood that focuses on community—a place where living, nature, health, and community are combined in a contemporary way.
Sustainable mobility is at the heart of ORPLID: the neighbourhood offers excellent facilities with electric charging stations for cars and bicycles, setting new standards for future-proof transport infrastructure. There are 2 fast chargers, 25 regular charging stations, 100 pre-equipped parking spaces for electric cars, and pre-equipped sockets for e-bikes in the bicycle areas.
ORPLID is creating a neighbourhood that embraces diversity: space for young and old, for families and singles, for people from all walks of life. From high-end penthouse apartments to affordable, family-friendly housing, ORPLID offers a wide range of living options. The focus is on community – communal spaces and meeting places create a lively home where everyone can feel welcome.
ORPLID – A PLACE FOR EVERYONE
The model shown below illustrates this diversity at a glance: different types of housing—from the Munich Model to Young Living and Cluster Living to privately financed townhouses and apartments—show how a lively community is created here. The floor plans shown illustrate how a wide variety of needs and lifestyles find space here, making the neighbourhood a place for all generations and lifestyles.
EOF stands for income-oriented promotion and enables affordable housing by providing support to builders who commit to social rents. Tenants receive income-based subsidies, ensuring that housing remains fair and affordable for many.
The Munich model also enables the city to create affordable housing for middle-income families. Rents are priced between social housing and privately financed housing.
Compact and affordable apartments create urban living space for young people – functional, flexible, and close to life.
The residential cluster combines private apartments with communal areas. This creates a place that offers both privacy and opportunities for socializing—like a large shared apartment with plenty of space for individual living and communal interaction.
The privately financed apartments offer modern comforts, high-quality furnishings, and spacious floor plans—urban living at the highest level.
The townhouses combine independence with community; they offer private space and, at the same time, direct participation in neighborhood life.
The following floor plan examples show how the variety of apartment types is reflected in the specific layout.

Orplid GmbH & Co KG is a family business founded in 2021 by the family of Dr. Walter Rothenfußer, based in Munich.
The Rothenfußer family has a long tradition in Munich. Originally large farmers in Dachau with their own mill, post office, and sawmill, the Rothenfußer family decided in the 19th century to sell everything in Dachau, move to Munich with their fortune, and invest it in what they knew best: land. Thanks to their integrity, sense of responsibility, and business acumen, the family has been able to maintain and grow this fortune to this day.
The Dr. Walter Rothenfußer family owns a property on Truderinger Straße in Berg am Laim, Munich. In 2013, the community of heirs decided to develop and build on the plot in order to construct urgently needed apartments for the city of Munich while retaining ownership of the land, thereby continuing a long tradition.
The managing directors Dr. Walter Rothenfußer - founder and operator of the Munich South Eye Center, with high-tech operating rooms and the first eye ward in the municipal KH-Verbund - and trained psychologist Antonia Rothenfußer ensure that the plan is not to build purely rental apartments, but a residential neighbourhood with 10% commercial space, including communal areas and roof gardens. The commercial part will be advertised and operated by a neighbourhood centre.
The neighbourhood aims to create opportunities to promote and strengthen people and their potential and interests. Orplid GmbH & Co KG thus promotes psychosocial health and quality of life.
