Überseering 12, Cultural heritage office building in Winterhude, Germany.

The Vattenfall building extends 153 meters in length and rises 44 meters high, featuring bronzed glass panels that absorb 70 percent of sunlight.

Architects Arne Jacobsen and Otto Weitling completed this modernist structure in 1969, marking Hamburg's transformation into a major economic center.

The building demonstrates International Style architecture through four parallel high-rise sections connected by a central core, reflecting German post-war design principles.

The office complex contains modular interior walls and flexible small rooms instead of open spaces, allowing adaptation to different organizational requirements.

The restaurant floor spans triple the size of regular office levels, originally intended to connect two similarly designed office buildings.
