B-One wins Iconic Award

B-One, the office building for Berlin Hyp, has received an ICONIC AWARD from the German Design Council.

 

 The ICONIC AWARDS honour forward-thinking projects across architecture, interior design, urban development, materials and communication. For more than a decade, the awards have celebrated projects that demonstrate new thinking and a holistic approach to the built environment.

 

“We are very pleased to receive this award for B-One. Our ambition was to move beyond traditional corporate architecture. The building integrates climate performance, flexibility and well-being as core architectural drivers rather than as technical add-ons,” says Julian Weyer, Partner and Architect at C.F. Møller Architects.

The design of B-One

Located at the intersection of Landwehrkanal and Corneliusbrücke in Berlin’s City West, B-One completes the existing urban block while forming a new reference point at the edge of Berlin’s western city centre.

 

The 11-storey building supports Berlin Hyp’s long-term vision while contributing to the development of the surrounding neighbourhood.

 

The building steps down from its full height towards the neighbouring historic villa at Budapester Strasse 5. This creates a considered transition between the scale of the new building and its historic context.

 

B-One is designed around changing ways of working. Flexible workspaces, quiet areas for concentration and shared spaces for collaboration are brought together in a workplace that supports both focus and exchange. At its centre, a shared “town hall” serves as a meeting point and creative workspace, accommodating everyday interaction as well as larger gatherings and client receptions.

DGNB certification in Platinum and Diamond

At the top of the building, a roof garden and conference facilities offer views across Berlin. In the courtyard, a green oasis adjacent to the town hall and cafeteria creates another space for informal meetings and wellbeing.


The façade combines planted terraces with a self-shading design that helps reduce solar loads. Photovoltaic panels are discreetly integrated into the natural stone façade grid, contributing to the building’s energy performance while preserving its calm and understated expression.


The building achieved an overall DGNB score of 87.8%, with particularly high results in ecological quality, process quality, and location quality, and was awarded DGNB Platinum and DGNB Diamond for its outstanding architectural, interior and cultural design quality.
