The project will comprise two office building a 15 storey tower and a 6 levels podium-building – of up to approximately 28.000 m gross external floor area above ground, plus approximately 12.500 m gross external underground. Starting from the developers objective to establish new standards in terms of design vision and the use of new-generation technology, the project is conceived by one of the famous international European architects, Chapman Taylor. It will offer a whole new perspective to the corporate environment for working and living. Upon its completion, The Mark will represent a visual reference point across the city, as well as in the Romanian office market.

The initiative of organizing an idea contest aims at harnessing young talents in the process of designing and planning the area that articulates the continuous fronts provided by PUZ (plan urban zonal on Buzesti street and Calea Grivitei, an area with very interesting historic, urban and architectural value. The main objective of the competition is finding the optimum architectural solution for the future public square, by also highlighting the historic value of the urban context.

The jury of the competition is composed of UAUIM representatives, the Chief Architect of Bucharest City Hall, one representative of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, as well as S Immo representatives.
