Beton Eisack HQ

“From grey to green” was the motto behind the conversion of the headquarters. The original building, designed by architect Armin Blasbichler in 2002, serves as the entrance to the concrete factory. With a focus on research and development, adapted needs emerged over time. The aim, 20 years later, was to create an efficient, atmospheric, and pleasant working environment while showcasing the company’s products. A new space for seminars and other events was added.

The building is accessed through a spiral staircase, which repositions the entrance to a central location. A future-and demand-oriented mix of open-plan and individual offices, along with various meeting options for staff and managers, extends over two floors of the levitating volume. Courtyards and cupola-like skylights improve daylight and noise conditions. The existing grey concrete shell remained untouched. The interior features a special green-pigmented lightweight concrete, developed by the company, and used with a variety of surface structures.
