As far back as 2000, at the height of new economy euphoria, he foresaw the market collapse. He also issued an early warning about the pending bursting of the property bubble in the U.S. and the severe financial crisis arising from this development. Shiller also played a major role in developing one of the most important property price indexes in the U.S., the “Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller Home Price Index.”

The two environmentally friendly high-rise buildings in the world skyscrapers should not just reflect the bank’s strong corporate identity and be preserved as iconic buildings of the Frankfurt skyline; the refurbished buildings should also underline the bank’s commitment to sustainability. That alone, however, would not have been enough for Bellini. The comprehensive and radical renovation of the towers was meant not only to fulfill new functions, but also to embody their dynamic attitude toward the future. In short, it should give them a new life. And it will. Take the redesign of the ground floor, for example: Two floating bridges cross a steel sphere and connect the towers, thus creating a spectacular foyer. At the same time, the building opens toward the adjacent public area. “For me,” says Bellini, “this is just as much part of an innovative approach as the exemplary environmental design of the building.”
