OfÂfice buildÂings of an inÂsurÂance comÂpany. OriÂented toÂwards the pubÂlic in terms of exÂpresÂsion and ofÂfer; with resÂtaurÂant, audÂitÂorÂium, and front square. InÂtegÂral, noble shell-conÂstrucÂtion concept: facade frame and inÂterior walls in exÂposed conÂcrete as load-bearÂing walls, maxÂimum perÂforÂaÂtion with arched openÂings – the overÂall staÂbilÂity just barely still enÂsured. CorÂrugÂated ceilÂing eleÂments in exÂposed conÂcrete; everything preÂfabÂricÂated. The five storÂies simÂilar inÂdiÂvidual tables, stable in and of themÂselves, stacked on top of one anÂother. The ofÂfices genÂerÂously glazed; on the periÂphery, platÂforms inÂwardly open to an areaway, juÂvenÂesÂcent over the height of the buildÂing. Hall for mulÂtiple purÂposes with top lightÂing.
