DZ Bank
Berlin, Germany

Completed in June 1999, DZ Bank is a 20,000-square-meter (215,000-square-foot) multi-use center that includes a five-story office building with a conference center and a nine-story luxury condominium building. The development is located on a one-half hectare (1.2-acre) site near Brandenburg Gate and adjacent to the future U.S. Embassy. DZ Bank features a large skylit atrium in the office building. A three-dimensional curved fire wall and a smaller atrium separate the office building/conference area from the condominium. The exterior of the building is clad in a yellow Italian limestone (Pietra di Vincenza) and features deeply recessed windows.
