dgj140 l'obelisque, Frankfurt am Main, Germany , 2013

 

Obelisque will be a visitor centre at Frankfurt Airport to be built in the framework of Schaustelle Baustelle at the future extension of 2013. Its timber formwork structure is optimized for sustainability. Its shape evoques the dynamics of access and enhances visual impact while minimizing the actual use of materials. DGJ's project was selected from an invited competition held in 2009 by Fraport.
