The residential tower designed by Diener & Diener is located near the railway station in Basel. The prism-shaped building accentuates the market hall dome and blends into the urban context. Lamberts EcoGlass ornamental glass is reminiscent of early modernist buildings. The black and red mineral coating of the insulation shimmers through the rear-ventilated elements. The façade allows the building to shimmer differently depending on the weather, giving the tower a harmonious appearance.
