The name Loop relates to air travel and refers to the proximity of Frankfurt airport.
Visitors are guided through the “contemporary aviation” and “flight pioneers” areas, which are interlinked by a “jet age” mall. The food court is spanned by a folded glass roof.
The shopping centers external appearance is derived from the concepts of velocity and a jewel box. The rhythmically raised, sand-colored slabs of the façade expose to view the permanently changing, recessed, colored levels of the building envelope. The design culminates in a crown-like top of perforated metal that is animated day and night by a twinkling play of light and shadow.
Propellers, wings, rudders and rotors in the graphic design of the banisters, floor surfaces and ceilings characterize the interior design oft the new shopping destination. With its dimensions of 320 by 150 meters, the building complex consists of a shopping centre comprised of two full floors, a basement, and an eight-meter- high, recessed staggered floor with nine parking levels that accommodate 3,000 cars.
Both construction elements are connected by a supply street on the lower floor and bridges above, and are unified in a coherent architectural form by the rounding off of the building corners and the continuous running façade.
