The goal of the building’s open space design is to complement these public street, places and green spaces with corresponding private, semi-public and public spaces within the building and on the roofs. From a social point of view, the open spaces on the first floor open up through public offers to the surrounding street spaces (café, bistro, etc.), as well as the generously accessible foyer on the ground floor offer a great deal of the room for maneuver due to ist high multifunctionality. On the 7th floor, the roof terraces completed with extensive wooden platforms, the Skywalk and covered areas (fitness, workspace, etc.) complete the range of uses in all weather conditions.

Finally, on the 13th floor, the building offers a social meeting place with the skylounge as the “crown” of the building, being the social meeting place that establishes a local identity through its visual connections on all sides. These extensive public offerings for social life are complemented by extensive semi-public and private offerings for users of the office building. Above all, the numerous green balconies in all directions and on many floors should be mentioned here, on which space for short or longer breaks is available.
As a community meeting place, the inner courtyard, the green heart of the building, complements the diversity of open spaces, which are known above all by a rich variety of plants.
