Outline Concept
"Transparent and ephemeral qualities contrasted against the opacity of Grossmarkthalle. The waterfall is used as the image for the tower; the iceberg for the low East Wing block.

All functional areas except for social / sports facilities and parking areas are organized along the two main axes, creating a variety of in-between spaces with the ambience of a microcity.

Elevated plaza (open and covered) -- sunken courtyard -- enclosed glass corridors and bridges -- canopied walkway - reflecting pool

The main restaurant is the focal point of this public domain and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area; the city skyline, the Main River, and to the distant beyond."
