As soon as you enter the DomAquarée complex, you are left in no doubt that this is a world of architectural superlatives. The art with which this particular craft has been applied is quite simply breathtaking. One of the most imposing edifices of its kind in modern Berlin, visitors will find it right in the historic centre of the city between the famous river Spree and Spandau Street.
Committing an investment outlay of close to EUR 500 million, the DIFA commissioned architect Sergei Tchoban to design and project-manage the construction of this multifunctional marvel. The architect´s philosophy is reflected in a world of adventure and sensuality that interlinks working life, leisure and art within a fully functioning whole. Located in the atrium of the Radisson SAS hotel between office wings, department stores and restaurants is the world’s largest cylindrical aquarium, the 25-metre high AquaDom. An elevator takes guests right through the "inner tube" of the hollow cylinder to the upper floors of the hotel. True to its mission to provide the very best in ultramodern hospitality, the Radisson SAS pampers its guests with a dynamic and luxuriant array of sights and delights. In keeping with the high specification, concealed ITS door closers from DORMA integrated in the doors of the hotel – over 600 in all – and DORMA BTS floor springs to close the all-glass portals offer the ultimate in access convenience.
The Variflex Top U HA movable walls with semi-automatic panel elements from DORMA Hüppe serve to configure the de luxe conference rooms. These soundproofing Variflex modules augment the architectural elegance of the hotel’s impressive spatial and color concept, offering operable flexibility, eye-pleasing finishes and that soothing hush of silence within.
DORMA Hüppe makes room, providing a positive plus in individuality and variety and creating an atmosphere of calm and wellbeing.
