The design prioritizes flexibility and well-being, offering adaptable layouts, collaborative areas, and quiet zones for focused work. Sustainability is central, with green courtyards and circular material use, making EDGE Friedrichspark a model for the future of office environments. The building also fosters a community-oriented atmosphere with spacious outdoor areas for relaxation, exercise, and informal meetings. Tenants have the flexibility to scale their office space as needed, ensuring room for growth and adaptability in a dynamic work environment.
