The integration of the publishing house into the city centre is based on the desire for com-munication between the publisher and society. A high-rise building and a significantly lower, curved wing are linked by a glass hall. This design responds to the local urban structure stemming from the Wilhelminian Style and the 1950s. It borders on the vast open station forecourt in the west.
