The project of head office CBE

Commercial Bank of Ethiopia

German architectural group Henn Architekten has won competition on the best civil-engineering design of head office Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) in Addis Ababa.

Unusual way of the organisation

Thin office building will be executed with optical effect of «presence of hollow structures» at change of a point of the review. For the account of such unusual way of organisation of base level of a building, some problems are reached — increased the areas of ground floors illuminated by natural light, interesting appearance of a design is created, is involved additional attention of visitors of the centre which bottom part it is planned to use as a trading complex that will cut expenses on building operation.

Can't wait to see what it looks like when it's actually built, if it ends up being built.
