The understandable eye-catching nature of the TRIAS high-rise results from the architecturally sensitive reference to the existing historical structures of the Neues Rathaus (New City Hall) and Stadthaus (Town Hall). The cornice and eaves heights of the old buildings are continued and correspondingly reflected in the plastic facade design of the new building. The corner of the block is raised three storeys above the neighbouring development and generates a striking address as well as architectural independence along the ‘ring facade’.
