The outstanding architecture of the Ökohaus "Arche" close to the Westbahnhof in Frankfurt Bockenheim is visible from far away.

The building was completed in spring 1992 and has attracted interest beyond the Rhine-Main area owing to its trend-setting ecological construction concept.

Both, the environment and the people working in the building, benefit from the concept: ponds collecting rain water which is then refined to process water; an ample system of vegetation, waterfalls and artificial streams that provide cooling in the summer – all this not only helps to save energy, but also creates a climate to “feel good”.
