We define architecture as both the process and the product of planning, designing, and constructing buildings and other physical structures. Architectural works, in the material form of buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art. Historical civilizations are often identified with their surviving architectural achievements. The architect breathes life into a project. Their creation rises from the ground to inspire a certain message to the community for decades to come.

Düsseldorf-based Ingenhoven Architects, a pioneer of sustainable architecture, values the ecological use of resources and the achievement of a high degree of aesthetic quality and has created an inspirational structure that embodies the principles of health and well-being.
