ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
In addition to parking spaces in the courtyard, employees and visitors can park their cars and bikes in the two-story underground parking garage. With its x-shaped layout, the building is accessed from the center; the staircases, elevators, sanitary facilities, and ancillary rooms are all centrally positioned to allow for the entire spectrum of modern workspace concepts, while at the same time maximizing natural light.
The building aims to achieve DGNB Gold certification, has already been pre-certified with WiredScore Gold, and meets the requirements for the KfW Efficiency House 40 standard thanks to features like its solar power system.
