架构师提供的文本描述。裂开，移位椭圆形是面向莱茵河，西本盖比尔格和城市，方便从城市的看法，并尽量减少负面的风影响，通过其空气动力学形状。该建筑从功能、技术和用户舒适性等方面重新考虑了高层办公大楼的类型。

Text description provided by the architects. The split, shifted oval is oriented to the Rhine, Siebengebierge and the city, facilitates views from the city, and minimizes negative wind effects through its aerodynamic shape. The building rethinks the type of high-rise office tower in relation to function, technology and user comfort.

在计划中，分裂的椭圆形半部被一个7，20米宽的空间隔开。9层间隔连接的玻璃地板形成空中花园，用作通讯楼层和电梯交叉口。低矮区和高楼区的玻璃电梯位于天窗花园的中心，提供景观和方向。

In plan the split oval halves are separated by a 7,20 m wide space. The connecting glass floors at 9-story intervals form skygardens, which serve as communication floors and elevator crossovers. The glass elevators of the low and high zones run in the center of the skygarden, providing views and orientation.

这栋建筑有一个双壳立面。外壳完全没有玻璃，使自然通风，特别是在春季和秋季。外壳保护不受雨、风和噪音的影响，并允许放置遮阳篷。玻璃从地板到天花板优化日光。成本比较表明，气候概念和双壳外墙的总成本相当于一个传统的系统。运营成本降低了60%。

The building has a twin-shell façade. The outer shell is completely out of glass, enabling natural ventilation, especially in the spring and fall. The outer shell protects from rain, wind and noise and allows for placement of the sunshades. Glass from floor to ceiling optimizes daylight. Cost comparisons show that the total cost of climate concept and twin-shell façade is equal to a conventional system. Operating costs are reduced by 60%.

日光、自然通风、太阳能以及建筑物的表皮调节自身气候的想法，还没有被作为商业设计的重要组成部分。这里的目标是纳入这些方法。通过这一点，我们可以重新发现和实现我们的本能和直觉行动。其结果是：一座高科技、低能耗的建筑。

Daylight, natural ventilation, solar energy and the idea that the skin of a building modulates its own climate have not yet been integrated as essential components in commercial design. The inclusion of these methodologies is the goal here. Through this, we can rediscover and fulfill our natural instincts and intuitive actions. The result: A building with high technology and low energy.
