The road to our new headquarters
We are building new corporate headquarters in line with the highest energy standards
Berlin Hyp is constructing an architecturally unique building at the Bank’s long-standing location at Budapester Strasse 1 in Berlin-Mitte. Together with the Danish architecture firm C.F. Møller Architects, a sustainable and efficient space concept for the new building is being implemented. On the way to becoming the most modern real estate financier and as an issuer of Green Bonds, working in an energy-efficient building is an important goal for the Bank. In addition to this, the new headquarters will also bring all employees in Berlin, who up to now have been separated into two different buildings, together into a single building.

Sustainable aspects
- Certification for demolition and new construction according to the very high standard set by the German Sustainable Building Council (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nachhaltiges Bauen - DGNB)
- recycling and disposal of the materials in an environmentally friendly manner when demolishing the old building
- The majority of small office furniture, materials and equipment from the building that are no longer needed have been donated or auctioned off and were therefore put to further use.
- Reduction in energy consumption by over 50 per cent in comparison to the old building
- Reduction in CO₂ emissions with the special design of outdoor areas and open spaces
- Large-scale photovoltaic systems on the peripheral façade
