Designed by the architectural studio APA Wojciechowski, the complex will soon gain more ground. The studio’s team has designed its second stage, the Skyliner II tower. The 130-metre-high office building will be erected at Daszyńskiego Roundabout in Warsaw’s Wola district right next to the first stage of the investment. The second phase of the project is scheduled to start this autumn. Warsaw’s new Skyliner II office building will have 24,000 sq.m of space on 28 floors. Most of the floor space (23,000 sq.m) will be offices. Retail and service units will occupy nearly 1,000 sq.m. The building’s architecture will reflect the first phase of the Skyliner complex, filling the rest of the plot. The Karimpol Group’s two skyscrapers will be connected by a shared podium. In the second phase of the project, it will comprise a fully glazed foyer with an open, illuminated, two-storey lobby and mezzanine. As in the first phase, a prominent staircase will lead to the foyer. The interior will be filled with lush natural vegetation. In total, the publicly accessible podium of the complex will comprise 4,500 sq.m of dedicated commercial space available to both tenants and local residents.
