Outline Concept
“Concept = Grossmarkthalle: ....not to compromise but to iterate the clarity and scale of the Grossmarkthalle as mega – object landed in the surrounding urban fabric.

Two iterations of the Grossmarkthalle merge with the cleared and landscaped ground plane, the third hovers above, incredibly, dramatically - a landmark and counterpoint to Frankfurt downtown towers.

Trussed Columns – 2,5 X 2.5 m and 4 lifts/stairs cores support the Transfer Carpet. 6 diagonal columns provide lateral stability.

These are clad in glass and internally illuminated both within the atrium and externally.”
