Runner Up : Eiffel Square Office Building (DVM Group)
(DVM Group)
Eiffel Square Office Building is located in downtown Budapest alongside the historic Western Railway Station Building designed by the office of Gustav Eiffel 1874 -1877. Eiffel Square Office Building is the kick-off point of the newly designed “Green Axis” which is to stretch from downtown Budapest to the suburbs. The main elevation of the new Eiffel Square building acts as a mirror, complementing the protected Western Railway Station Building by literally reflecting its 19th century structure.
The two angles in the glass front elevation of the new building resemble a chaste diamond. Eiffel Square provides a multifunctional ground floor with three main lobbies and six upper floors of over quarter of a million square feet of rentable area including restaurants, terraces and shops; this adds further life to the fully functioning office building. This building is among the first in Budapest to achieve BREEAM rating.
