Events & Statement - Berlin Unter den Linden

The new service and consulting centre of the renowned IT company is located in the historic building on the famous street “Unter den Linden” in Berlin.

Distributed over four floors, it offers the perfect setting for presentation and communication, networking and meetings with customers, business partners, journalists, entrepreneurs, politicians and thus a communicative place for living publicity on more than 3,000 m².

AUKETT + HEESE Frankfurt has guided the design concepts of the client’s agency into the given budget with experience and commitment, from the planning to the supervision of the execution on site and has worked through the technical and constructional aspects in such a way that the execution reflects the impressive design with high quality and functionality.

During the project, we were then additionally commissioned with the complete planning from design for the office space in the building used by the client himself. Under the design motto “Berlin inspires”, graffiti by Berlin artists was used and acoustic panels with artist’s photographs of Berlin transport the atmosphere of the city into every conference room.

The building has presentation areas and offices; the top floor is intended for cooperation with companies and their start-ups.

In the center of the ground floor is a café, which is open to the public and offers the opportunity to try out new products. In addition, it can be used as an event space for 200 people.

Graffiti separates the work areas from the Focus Room. Acoustic panels with photographs of Berlin transport the atmosphere of the city into each conference room.
