Germany’s largest residential high-rise tower rises 172 meters into the sky. In an exclusive location between the banking district, Westend and Europaviertel, the Grandtower offers high-quality apartments with two to four rooms, all with floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows and their own outdoor area. The loggias, which are offset from one another in a ring shape, open up unique views over the Main metropolis and give the building its unmistakable, organically curved structure.

The surface of the Grand Tower’s facades in a sparkling white tone lends them radiance:
Duraflon® Glacier White was developed by HD Wahl especially for the building and adapted to the aesthetic wishes of the planners.

The surface should sparkle brilliantly. For this reason, the pigmentation was designed to be particularly intense and bright, and even more effect pigments were incorporated into the coating layer than in all previously existing Duraflon white shades. In several coordination steps with the planners, Duraflon “Glacier-White” with maximum sparkle effect and highest radiance was created.
