The new structure with characteristically tiered buildings is located on an attractive waterfront property on the Rostock Silo peninsula next to an old shipyard. Standing on an irregular five-pointed floorplan, one can look up to four above-ground floors. The ground floor is situated on a podium, which is reached per free-standing stairs. Visitors and employees first enter a green atrium, flanked on both sides by water. The two adjoining buildings have also been designed so that they offer all employees a view of the water.
On the third floor is an x-shaped element, which creates special terraces, all of which have a view of the water. This in turn makes an optical reference to the slipways of the former boatyards. The facade consists of a rich, dark base with finely structured metal elements in warm copper tones, which elegantly wrap the structure. The building was awarded the Rostock Architectural Prize in 2018.
