Samsung's new German headquarters is the landmark, highly visible focal point of the emerging Eschborn Gate business campus and, in dialogue with the adjacent SAP building, creates a gateway-like entrance gesture for Eschborn South. The 16-story tower, with its clearly structured, understated glass and aluminum façade and the two-story arranged pilasters, gains additional lightness through the twist in the middle of the building, which seems to split the structure into two stacked cubes. The lower part of the building integrates architecturally into the surrounding campus, while the upper part gently rotates eastward, offering a view of the Frankfurt skyline—particularly from the conference areas and the sky bar located there. Highly flexible office, conference, and showroom spaces, green outdoor areas, and an in-house restaurant ensure the highest spatial flexibility for around 1,000 employees, accommodating various working styles. Thanks to innovative, concrete-saving hollow-core ceilings, more than 1,500 tons of weight and over 130 tons of CO2 were saved during the construction process.
