Fuse is a concept for new office spaces at the Halle-Trotha power plant. The project reimagines the single-storey extension of the historic Jost building, transforming its outdated interiors to meet contemporary working needs. The existing spaces are small and fragmented, and some lack access to fresh air and direct daylight.
To accommodate a diverse range of working practices, the design introduces multifunctional areas that combine dedicated workstations with spaces for more flexible use. By opening up the existing structure, the design creates more generous spaces that flow seamlessly into one another. Transparency serves as a guiding principle throughout, while the company’s corporate colours are integrated into the lounge furniture.
At the heart of Fuse is a patio beneath a former skylight. Centrally positioned within the building, this green space is visible from all offices and helps bringing fresh air and daylight into even the innermost areas of the building.
