Introduction
Location
The Euro Tower building is located in North Central Bucharest at the junction of
Barbu Vacarescu street and Lacul Tei boulevard. The site is a triangular plot of
area 1,820 sqm. The building has significant frontages on Lacul Tei boulevard to
the North West and Dinu Vintila street to the East and enjoys excellent visibility
from Barbu Vacarescu street. The adjacent uses are office to the North,
residential to the West and south and the famous Circus Park covering 26
hectares to the East, which provides a pleasant relief to the busy urban
environment.
The building is only a 5 minute drive away from Piata Victoriei and has easy
access to the Otopeni airport, to the Northern residential area of Pipera and to the
future connection to the highway Bucharest – Brasov. Situated at the crossing of
Barbu Vacarescu street on Lacul Tei boulevard, the building enjoys excellent
traffic flows in and out of the city, due to its dual carriage way configuration
Public Transportation
The site is well served by existing public transport. The Metro station Stefan cel
Mare is located at the cross between Stefan cel Mare street and Barbu Vacarescu
street, approximately 300m meters from the building. Trams run on Barbu
Vacarescu street, with a stop located at the north-west corner of the Euro Tower
building. The Euro Tower offices are served by several bus routes, with a stop
located in front of the building.

Architectural Concept
Building Modulation
The building modulation is done at international standards on a 7.5m column grid
and a 1.5m space planning grid. Due to the geometry of the plan variations occur,
occasionally columns are spaced at 10m to co-ordinate with the 2.5m parking
module. The typical office floor to floor height is 3.85m.
Vertical Circulation.
The ground floor lift lobby is immediately visible from the main entrance subject to
visual control from the reception desk and access control by security turnstiles.
The building will be provided with a single group of six lifts in the main core
specified to provide very good levels of service to the 18 above ground office
floors. In order to maximize efficiency, the lift group will be provided with a
selective control device system which will enable passengers to ‘book’ their
destination floor electronically from the reception lobby. The lift group has a
designated goods lift going to first basement level and two fire fighting lifts.
A separate passenger lift connects the five basement parking levels to the ground
floor reception area, where passengers must disembark and pass through
reception and security before continuing their ascent to the office floors.
The building will have three staircases all located around the central lift core. One
stair serves the full height of the building from the lowest basement level -5, to the
roof plant at level 19. The second serves all occupied floors from ground level to
level 18 and the third connects all basement levels to ground floor reception.

Office Area
Floors – on the office perimeter an approximately 90cm wide strip of screed will
be poured and in the area enclosed by it, raised floor will be installed. The floor will
be covered by fire proof smokeless office carpet, medium standard, good quality.
For skirting, plastic profile with carpet will be fixed on the walls.
Ceilings – mineral fibre tiles including the metallic structure, tegular, incorporating
lights and grilles will be provided. On the perimeter area continuous ceiling will be
installed to liaise the mineral fibre suspended ceiling and it will incorporate
ventilation grilles.
The finished floor to ceiling height is 2.8m, which combined with the generous
perimeter glazing will achieve a light and spacious feeling.
Meeting Rooms
The installation equipment will be dimensioned to create the premises of quick
installation without major demolition works in case one of the future tenants
require. For the moment the area will be finished same as the office area.

Euro Tower
Curtain wall system – will be non-structural with horizontal and vertical coverings,
including anchorage. Two diagonals will divide the curtain wall area. The upper
area glass will differ from the glass in the area under the diagonal, being a darker
shade of grey.
Lift shafts exterior walls will have a ventilated façade system. The ventilated
façade system will support the weight of the aluminium framed fixed glazed
windows and provide a proper thermo-insulation. The windows will liaise with the
finishing.
