City living blends harmoniously with nature at Eden, a 98-meter high-rise apartment building at the edge of Frankfurt’s Europaviertel.
Delicate crystalline balconies hug the facade, meeting uninterrupted vertical gardens that lend privacy to outdoor living spaces while emphasizing the height of the building. The vertical stripes of vegetation extend the landscape upward, offering residents skyline views that remain grounded in the natural landscape. The vertical integration of greening brings an intimacy with nature that redefines urban residential life.
From the surrounding context, the composition of glass and white concrete intertwined by vegetation softens the tower and grafts it into the landscape. As one of the highest green residential façades in Europe, Eden marks the entrance to Europa Allee, symbolizing the city’s commitment to sustainability in an exceptional location.
