Refurbishment of the entire building with a new design of the façade

Redevelopment

The project involved urgently needed reinstatement works and a significant enhancement of the façade. The building has now a more transparent look because we increased the glazing of the façade and we improved the insulation. Updated and more energy efficient technical installations were installed, like: cooling & ventilation systems, lighting, elevators. The escalators are according to current standard.

Energy performance

The energy use will be reduced due to the better insulated façade, more energy efficient technical installations as well as the LED lighting which was installed by the tenant.
