The location alone is remarkable: a subsidiary of the DZ Bank, is housed in the old and actual centre of Berlin. The building dates back to 1734, and is situated right in the heart of the revitalized government quarter. For centuries, it has been the city\'s historic hub, straddling the divide between Eastern and Western Europe. At this unique crossroads right next to the Brandenburg Gate and Reichstag, you can experience Berlin\'s lively past, present and future all in one.
The building´s unique appearance is based on the powerful architectural language of American star architect Frank O. Gehry. His design drew inspiration from organic forms, and combined contrasting materials in unusual ways. Among the other buildings that have secured his award-winning international reputation are the American Center in Paris, the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao.
The stark, classical façade opens onto the entrance area to reveal a spatial sculpture of biomorphic forms, lavish materials and a spectacular, dynamic geometry. A huge walk-in sculpture, it offers an entirely new experience of space and is ideal for conferences, symposia and conventions. The glass dome spanning the ceiling, which affords a view of the Atrium, floods the Forum with natural light and creates a spacious feel. The open yet sealed design guarantees outstanding acoustics. Because of its size and transparency, the space is ideally suited for events such as gala dinners, conferences, receptions and product presentations. With its bold red carpet the Forum can accommodate up to 500 people. The lounge is the buildings piéce de résistance: lined with warm pinewood, it can be used as an exquisite VIP lounge or small meeting space. The Gehry designed all-wooden chairs are a special highlight, which enhance the pleasant harmonious mood of this cosy space.
Perfectly coordinated services, which also leave scope for new ideas and last-minute requests, ensure the success of the events. From gala menus to off-site catering, from technical support to decoration, from organisation to security issues, the experienced team provide event organizers with comprehensive advice on how to plan and hold the event.
Philosophy and science, sculptural art and design – many disciplines have been brought together through the creation of the building. The formula is a carefully tailored symbiosis, where the historic Pariser Platz intersects with an exclusive event location, providing a premium product that masterfully combines form and colour. To quote Frank O. Gehry: “The best thing I’ve ever done.”
The subsidiary embodies Berlin’s most exclusive congress and conference centre. The highly expressive space created by world renowned architect Frank O. Gehry plays host to galas, conferences and congresses for up to 600 people.
A team accompanies every event from idea and inception to implementation covering all aspects including technical, decorative and culinary concepts.
