Architect's statement
To create a new business branch for a bank was a total new task for us. Especially this bank is known for its exclusivity and tradition. What we tried to do was to bring these elements into a new design. We wanted that the innovation gets shown of course besides the traditional approach. Therefore we used a lot of detailed features like using their symbol of a blackamoor in surprising ways. Not only the client´s zones are treated with elaborate materials, but also the recreation zones for the employees. Behind the big photo wall in the office space, you will find the kitchen and sitting area. So you have both sides for an approach. While working you are facing the image “buy low – sell high” and while being on a brake, you are seeing the image from behind.
The client zone is very flexible. The meeting rooms can be changed into one big meeting room, or left separate. The entrance area also has a nice place to sit into leather lounge chair, in order to create a more genuine atmosphere.
