Flemish Administrative Centre Ghent
Belgium
The complex is formed by two buildings: an L-shaped low-rise building and a tower. The 3-storey low-rise is 17.5 and 23 m high respectively. This building is slated for public functions (e.g. place for exhibits, small events or meetings/conferences). The tower will accommodate offices. The energy-efficient building consists of 22 floors (without ground floor) and is 90 m high and 44 m wide. A "floating" fore-court between the two buildings offers a view of the Koningin Maria Hendrikaplein.
