Outline Concept
“Implementation of a heterotype skyline as an outstanding landmark between riverbank and metropolitan urban modules: typological image of a structure in-progress, statue-like and emblematic, yet at the same time animated and open (in contrast to the free standing Frankfurt high-rise buildings).

Monochrome glass composition like spatial band, with polychrome insertions providing the scale on a terraced landscape plinth.

Urban layers with the functional integration of the Grossmarkthalle by means of bypasses in a site-specific core and shell, parallel to the axis of the river Main.

Circulation hall as a green promenade cutting through all functional layers, honeycomb-like shell, ecological and climatic umbilical cord, conceptual planted connection of the north-south axis between Frankfurt’s green belt and the riverside open space.

Tripartite architectural layering of the functional and security sections between Sonnemannstrasse and Main-parkpromenade.

A passe–partout for the urban landscape; building plinth, security distance.

Cyclical planting: winter: rape / yellow – spring: phacelia / blue - summer: sunflowers / golden-yellow - late summer.”
