The German Embassy has become the new landmark of the embassy district in Oman.
The Embassy building is carefully uplifted to visually only touch the ground at the access areas in order to create an all-round floating effect. This, together with the purposely aligned Chancellery building form distinguished open spaces.
The iconic design of the new German Embassy premises reflects the new area of Omani architectural identity; combining the highest German building standards and design language with traditional Omani architecture and low-tech approaches to sustainability and building physics.
