The new headquarters for the MOL Group in Hungary is located in southern Budapest. Designed by Foster + Partners in collaboration with Finta Studio, the building consolidates the company’s Budapest operations in a single location. It is an integral part of the MOL Group’s sustainable vision for 2030, providing a blueprint for the office of the future.
The 28-storey building’s lower floors house restaurants, a gym, conference centre and a whole host of other facilities for staff, while the flexible offices spaces are on the upper levels. Greenery travels through the heart of the building, from the central atrium to the rooftop, bringing nature closer to the workspace. It also acts as a social catalyst, creating spaces for collaboration, relaxation and inspiration. The offset service cores create large flexible areas that encourage collaborative patterns of working. Using cutting edge technology to control light levels, temperature and views these workspaces are finely calibrated to create the perfect working environment, a light filled inspirational space for people to work in.
The MOL Headquarters seeks to preserve live-work relationships as part of the urban experience, where people can walk or cycle to work. The building is on track to achieving LEED Platinum and BREEAM Excellent certifications, setting new benchmark both for Budapest and Hungary, the design of the building makes the most of its urban context to drive a sustainable response.
