Vierscheibenhaus, Office building in Altstadt-Nord, Germany.
The Vierscheibenhaus features four rectangular glass sections extending across eight floors, creating a geometric pattern on its modern facade.
The Westdeutscher Rundfunk headquarters building, completed in 1970, marked a shift in architectural design during the post-war development of Cologne.
The structure functions as a central hub for media production and broadcasting activities, connecting journalists and content creators throughout North Rhine-Westphalia.
Located in central Cologne, the building provides direct access to public transportation networks and includes multiple entry points for staff and visitors.
The name Vierscheibenhaus translates to Four Disc House, reflecting the distinct arrangement of overlapping rectangular sections in its design.
