The newly built Barnim Service and Administration Centre fills an empty space, over a hectare in size, which was caused during wartime in the middle of the historic old city of Eberswalde (Germany). The "missing piece of the city" is filled by four compact 3-to-4-storey structures, which fit into the existing city structure in terms of form and scale.
KfW Bankengruppe values sustainability in its buildings. This new building, which is located in Frankfurt city centre near to the Palmengarten, has energy-optimised heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting systems. These systems are complemented by a water-saving concept.
