Completed in 1990 and designed by architect Helmut Jahn, the Messeturm has been a
symbol of Frankfurt ever since. At a height of 257 m, the art deco-style office tower with
its 63 storeys was the tallest in the EU for a long time.
Following a renovation by Jahn and Matteo Thun & Partners, the iconic office building
has now been reopened. The interior concept of the public areas is all about light and
nature. It creates a pleasant, healthy atmosphere allowing the user room to recharge
batteries and space for ideas. All areas encourage communication, be it for morning
coffee, co-working, lunch or for happy hour - the focus is on people’s well-being. The
idea behind the concept? Creating a healthy environment that is intuitively understood.
The impressive atrium foyer, with an area of around 1,200 m2, a height of 17 m and
curved glass fronts, offers a generous, bright and transparent sense of space. Natural
materials, including stone, and lots of daylight characterize the entrance hall - it is the
connection between inside and outside. Trees, an abondance of plants and a room-high
‘fountain-wall’ not only provide a visual sense of nature in the building but generate
vitality and clean the air at the same time. The central core of the lift systems now
disappears behind an LED lighting concept in shades of white. Many indirect light
sources ensure further well-being and a lasting pleasant atmosphere in the public areas.
The furniture, designed by Matteo Thun and produced by ‘Cassina Custom Interiors’,
invites employees and visitors alike to take a seat on spacious terraces, outdoor and
indoor lounges or in the ‘Horizon’ coffee and day bar. The open-kitchen restaurant ‘M.
Tower’ for lunch and dinner can be reached directly by subway in the basement of
the building.
