Info
The design of a new headquarters for dhpg marks the urban development start of the extension axis in this prominent district of Bonn. The heart of the building is planned as a new place of communication and identification. The foyer works as a waiting room for visitors and clients. The vertical development points in view axes to the entrance allow easy orientation and short distances in the house. The clear and timeless architecture brings image, functionality and economy together.
