Conversion of copper workshop Köln
From a former copper factory to a modern office environment.
LIST BiB Bielefeld was commissioned by BEOS AG to convert an existing industrial hall into a new office space. The renovation project is located on the historic Carlswerk site on Schanzenstraße in Cologne-Mülheim. The site is increasingly developing into a new urban district, into which the new office spaces with their industrial chic will fit perfectly. LIST Bielefeld was responsible for the interior design and the reconstruction of the building services in the copper hall. After the demolition work, the general contractor was able to begin the renovation and create 5,219 square meters of new office, meeting, conference, and test rooms for the future tenant. To this end, a small mezzanine floor made of layered concrete was also installed in the single-story warehouse. In addition, the roof and skylights, and parts of the façade, were renovated. The steel structure was also made visible to enhance the industrial charm. Furthermore, the basement was converted into an underground car park. Overall, LIST BiB Bielefeld completely revitalized the entire existing building in terms of energy efficiency. In the area of technical building equipment, LIST BiB Bielefeld received support from the in-house engineering company LIST Ingenieure.
