The Circle was named after the distinctive crescent shape of the building. The design was created by the Japanese star architect Riken Yamamoto, who was awarded the Pritzker Prize, the most prestigious prize in architecture. The building is connected to both the airport and the adjacent park. The impressive look of the iconic architecture goes hand in hand with sustainable construction, green roofs and photovoltaic systems. The Circle is therefore a trendsetter for environmentally conscious business centres in every respect. It has also been awarded LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Platinum certification. In addition, the 80,000 m2 park provides recreation and relaxation in nature. Green spaces and shady trees bind CO2 while also creating a meeting and event venue. Both corporate events and public music, light and art festivals take place here.
The location right next to the airport naturally provides ideal transport links. The Circle is therefore easy to reach by plane, train, bus and car. This location has proven itself for companies and international meetings, making the Circle an exclusive business hub. The working environment is suitably representative and cosmopolitan.
