We are delighted about the award for the Birkenstock Headquarters at the German Design Award 2023: the company headquarters in Cologne’s Rheinauhafen with the interior design we created was recognised by the international jury for outstanding design achievements. The annual competition recognises groundbreaking design solutions that meet the challenges of our time. It is one of the most prestigious design awards worldwide and is held in high esteem.
In the Excellent Architecture – Interior Architecture category, the Birkenstock Headquarters was voted one of the best entries and can now boast the “Winner” award. The jury singled out the exemplary design achievements implemented at the headquarters of the international fashion label, which is located in two customs warehouses dating from the nineteenth century. In the context of the historical warehouse halls, we developed a tailor-made interior design for the diverse demands of Birkenstock. Particularly impressive are the ground-level halls 11 and 12 with cross vaults and round columns, which now provide an attractive working environment with a showroom.
The award show and exhibition will take place in February 2023. All winning projects are already presented in the online gallery of the German Design Award 2023.
