Project description

Project description

Through a multitude of dualities, the design for an office building with commercial spaces had to create a variety of spatial, functional and atmospheric links between the historic Speicherstadt and the new Hafen City Straße. Surrounded by existing newbuild projects
on Sandtorkai, the design responds to these requirements with a serene, S-shaped building structure. The recess in the building picks
up on the rhythm of the individual structures on Sandtorkai and forms a gateway to HafenCity with the bank building opposite. The recess facing the park mirrors the opening in the opposing school and forms a visual
axis through to the church of St. Katharinen. The building structure has a generous opening in this area, linking the lower street to the higher park. This area is also the main entrance to the building and displays the address. The building structure, which is both simple and complex in terms of its design and construction, assertively blends in with its historic and new surroundings thanks to an elegant building envelope. The imposing façade consisting of dark red aluminium panels and
a special Schüco unitised construction meets the highest technical and aesthetic requirements. The spacious entrance, the individually designed offices and the many innovative design and furnishing solutions also contribute to its prestigious character.
