The plot is in an internal-urban area of development in Bielefeld, that is limited to the south by university facilities, to the west by the Kesselbrink and to the north by the railway. Various developments were already moved in this area, or are in the conversion, as for example the new building of the Seidenstickerhalle as a gym and event hall, various buildings for office with several thousand square metres of office spaces, Townhouses in the area of the outdoor pool, as well as commercial building areas and general residential building areas as revitalizition of the former slaughterhouse area. Further developments will follow on the area of a car dealer. To the east the planned hotel building limits the area, which is immediately compared with the entrance of the Seidenstickerhalle. This new building – by his Verticality – takes over in urban design the function of a point of reference in this heterogeneous area and is therefore a landmark in the town. The enlarged ground floor forms the building to Werner-Bock-Straße and Am Stadtholz. The upper floors (orientation to east and west) tower above the ground floor to the Werner-Bock-Straße. Therefore they qualify a covered driveway and mark the input area. The space program corresponds to the default of international hotel chains in the mid class segment and is solved as follows:
In the ground floor the lobby with the registration, office areas lying behind it, the restaurant, a bar, divisible seminar rooms, the kitchen with the matching storerooms and the delivery, as well as media places and the public WCʼs are located. In the basement there is the gym which is supplied by generous light shafts with daylight as well as various storeroom and technology rooms. In first up to the 9th upper floor are 117 standard rooms and in the 10th upper floor are 4 suites and a Skybar. From the Skybar there is a view – because the its height of more than 33 m about soil – over Bielefeld and along the Teutoburger Wald, to the Sparrenburg, the Hermansdenkmal in Detmold and with clear view to the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Monument in Porta Westfalica. The vertical development occurs about both lifts and both security stairwells with offshore sluice. Designing is the building by the compelling perforated facade, stamped with vertical windows which opens only in the ground floor and in the area of the Skybar. The pillars and balustrades should be dressed up by brass-coloured aluminium panels. Statically is the building a conventional reinforced concrete construction with weight-bearing facade and statically active walls in the hotel hall. The cantilever free of pillars of the upper floors about the ground floor happens about the forms of the hotel hall walls as carriers.
