The Sustainable Flagship Office at Osthafen
Berlin’s Osthafen with its interplay of historic warehouses and modern residential and office buildings has developed into one of the most attractive office locations. Dockyard is being realised in a unique waterfront location, directly adjacent to the river Spree in the Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district. Realized in sustainable, climate-friendly and resource-efficient wood hybrid structure with a focus on work-life-balance and well-being. Dockyard is designed as an inspiring space for people with an ecologically responsible lifestyle and is aimed for companies that wish to set an example in terms of sustainability. Completed by a flexible utilization concept, Dockyard creates ideal conditions for a future-oriented working cosmos.
Net-zero operations
Dockyard sets the benchmark in the area of sustainability – both in terms of its construction and its operation. Key aspects are the wood hybrid construction method and the specific use of “green” steel in certain areas of the building. Thanks to its innovative energy concept, which is based on Germany’s largest ice-storage system and the utilization of regenerative energy (geothermal, solar and ambient-air sources), Dockyard will operate on a net-zero basis (as per LEED Zero Carbon) post completion.
