这座建筑是Schwäbisch Media (Swabian Media) 的办公大楼，Schwäbisch Media是一家活跃于传统与新媒体多个领域的出版公司。建筑由六个突出的玻璃墙立方体块构成，立方体的比例和尺度都根据周边传统的德国拉芬斯堡（Ravensburg）fachwerk别墅大小来确定。六个工作区域堆叠在首层的透明体块之上，首层体块中容纳了通往每个区域的通道，为这个中世纪城市中心塑造了一座新的城市建筑。公司以前分散在上斯瓦比亚（Upper Swabia）地区，新办公建筑使得整个公司350名员工能够聚集在同一个屋檐下。

This building is an office for Schwäbisch Media (Swabian Media), a publishing company active in many facets of traditional and new media. Six protruding glass-walled cubes define and compose the project, with their proportions and dimensions based on the surrounding traditional German fachwerk villas in the city of Ravensburg. These six working areas have been stacked on top of a transparent ground floor, through which access is afforded to each, creating a new urban typology in the center of this medieval city. As the company’s activities were previously scattered throughout the Upper Swabia region, this building brings all 350 employees under one roof.
