GIZ-Haus, Cultural heritage building in Tiergarten, Berlin, Germany
The GIZ-Haus stands on Reichpietschufer street with a four-story structure featuring a steep hipped roof and stone-clad facade with strong ground floor rustication.
Built in 1913 for the Transatlantic Goods Insurance Company, the building later housed the Wehrmacht military intelligence service during World War II.
The entrance hall displays green-brown ceramic tiles and a wall fountain, while allegorical reliefs on the exterior represent five continents.
The ground floor contains modular conference rooms with maple wood sliding walls, and the inner courtyard functions as a covered atrium meeting space.
Danish artist Olafur Eliasson created WindSpiegelWand, a reflective stainless steel installation on the northern and western walls of the building.
