This great piece of architecture is by J. Mayer H Architects. It’s an office complex in Hamburg, Germany.

It is at the transition from city to nature, and the gateway building to the bustling metropolitan core. The horizontal striped facade with its floating ‘eyes’ celebrates the view onto this unique context.

The ‘eyes’ in the façade and the platforms in the park form places to meet and contemplate.
