dc.descriptionRaking view of the south "comb" concrete framing wall, looking west, and a cylindrical tower which faces the river frontage; In 1994, Braunfels' design for the 81,000 square meter German Parliament office building, Paul Löbe Haus was awarded first prize. The home of German Parliament's offices and committee chambers opened in 2001 and is one of the most prominent structures in Berlin. The building contains more than 900 offices for the parliamentary deputies. In 1996 he was awarded first prize for another parliament building design, the 65,000 square meter Marie Elisabeth Lüders Haus, which houses the German Parliament's offices, library and repository. This second building opened to critical acclaim in 2003. The Paul Loebe Haus and Marie Elisabeth Lüders Haus span the River Spree with matching architecture, symbolizing the unity of East and West Germany.
