Heinrich Campus Deloitte Office

We Build Big, but We Plan On a Human Scale An innovative office campus has been established in Düsseldorf’s Derendorf quarter. The tiered arrangement of the three five- to seven-story blocks – distinguished by recesses and varied heights – allows the building to blend harmoniously into the urban fabric while creating generous open spaces. The brick facade recalls the area’s industrial past. The brightness of the bricks is graduated across the three volumes, while articulated brick detailing on the outer elevations accentuates the rhythm of the openings in the perforated facade. Home for All Initially planned for multiple tenants, the building is now fully occupied by auditing and consulting firm Deloitte. Their agile work culture, focus on process optimization, and high standards for security and discretion were addressed in close dialogue with caspar., resulting in a workplace that goes beyond conventional standards and anticipates the future of work. With around 3,500 employees in Düsseldorf, Deloitte’s presence is growing. The Heinrich Campus provides 900 standard-compliant workstations and an additional 2,000 across a variety of settings. An app-based booking system eliminates hierarchy, enabling anyone to reserve a workspace as needed. Deloitte’s aim that “everyone should find a home here” reflects a broader shift toward office environments that offer the comfort and autonomy associated with remote work. In the competition for talent, the quality of the physical workplace has become a key differentiator. Welcoming Presence Despite Deloitte’s stringent security requirements, the Heinrich Campus exudes an open and inviting atmosphere. The firm’s main entrance is centrally located on the sheltered south side. From the public forecourt, visitors and employees enter a glazed lobby with an open gallery above, accessible beyond the security gate. Oak finishes, indoor greenery, and unobstructed views lend the space a professional yet relaxed feel. The flexible layout accommodates large events, with movable furnishings enhancing adaptability. The lobby connects to special use zones: a recruiting area at the front and a light-filled food court positioned between the inner courtyard and forecourt. The westernmost of the three courtyards contains a double-height, column-free event hall for up to 500 people, which can be connected directly to the lobby when needed. This showcase space is equipped to high technical standards, including 360° 3D projection. New Work Custom-designed furniture and a robust technical infrastructure support seamless activity-based working across the campus. Fully equipped workstations allow employees to begin immediately with minimal setup. Warm oak floors and furnishings contrast with black ceilings and white Corian counters to create a balanced, authentic atmosphere. Thoughtfully designed open spaces and interior greenery enhance employee wellbeing and foster a healthy microclimate. Deloitte’s investment in interior quality is matched by a forward-looking sustainability concept. Certified DGNB Gold, the building uses durable materials and energy-efficient systems based on the LowEx principle – delivering high comfort with low energy consumption. The result is a holistic synthesis of architectural integrity and cutting-edge workplace design.
