Last month J Mayer H Architects (JMH) completed the Steckelhorn 11 office building located in Hamburg, Germany. With provocative lines and modernist color-ways it’s a stand-out structure among the more traditional buildings in the district. We wouldn’t mind having a satellite office there.

As JMH states: “Steckelhorn 11 replaces a ruinous building and fills the gap between two historic premises. the triangular-shaped lot stretches across the city block, thus allowing for a narrow façade of about 1.9 m width facing the harbor and a main elevation of about 26.4 m oriented toward steckelhörn street. the vertical design and soft setbacks of the latter pay tribute to the massing of the surrounding structures, as well as to local building-height regulations. cantilevered elements in the main facade create a series of specific spatial qualities on the inside and outside. the top floors provide additional outside space, offering a spectacular panoramic view over the city of hamburg.” Click Read More for additional information and photos.
