E.ON Ruhrgas

With this new building, E.ON Ruhrgas AG sets an example in terms of energy-efficient urban architecture. The main energy expenditure is reduced by 40% when compared to an administrative building following the traditional standard. The two elliptical office towers are each 63 m high and are connected by a glass atrium flooded with light.

      Project

      A skylight covers the historic foyer. The original backlighting with linear fluorescent lamps did not give off any luminance and caused irritating images on the radial glass panes. The pendant luminaires placed at intervals give off a warm light in the interior space and form rings in the listral glass panes.

      Project

      The new corporate headquarters for Berlin Hyp is intended to showcase the bank's sustainable vision while at the same time contributing to the urban development of the surrounding area. Planted terraces, a roof garden and a newly designed inner courtyard bring the greenery of the surrounding streets up to the roof. Photovoltaic modules are integrated into the natural stone façade grid to produce the bank's own electricity. The aim is to achieve DGNB Platinum certification.

      The building offers various zones for a wide range of activities, from active exchange in a team, with customers or in large groups, to concentrated work at individual workstations. Our lighting design includes the public areas such as entrances and atrium, the office floors and the outdoor areas. Workplace lighting controlled by smart technology with the help of sensors not only meets sustainability requirements, but also offers a high degree of individualisation.
