Design staircase at nhow hotel

In Frankfurt’s western banking district, the 190 m high tower “ONE” was built as a mixed-use project. At the time of construction it was the sixth tallest building in Germany. With clear lines, digital infrastructure and an exceptional mix of hotel and office facilities, the 47-storey skyscraper developed by CA Immo sets a new standard for openness, networking and teamwork.
A special quality are the many awards of the building. It was the first high-rise in Germany to receive a “WiredScore” platinum certification for best connectivity. In addition, the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) awarded the project with the pre-certificate in platinum. Furthermore, the “ONE” earned the SmartScore certificate, also in platinum, for exceptional smart user experience and future-proof design. The building was also nominated for the International High-Rise Award 2022/23.

14 levels of the building are used by the 4-star superior hotel nhow with 375 rooms, restaurants, conference areas and a sky bar. The ascent from the hotel lobby to the restaurant on the first floor goes up an impressive design staircase in ellipsoidal style. The Spanish design studio Rafael de la Roz followed the hotel’s design concept “The Art of money” when designing the golden sculpture. The superimposed golden rings surrounding the design staircase are inspired by the unpredictable falling of coins and convey movement and lightness. The aesthetic paling balustrade of the design staircase is completed by a handrail made of a round stainless steel tube with LED lighting, which provides both harmonious and safety-relevant illumination.
