AN inspiring, SUSTAINABLE
& Creative HUB
The Arc has targeted BREEAM EXCELLENT, WELL GOLD, DGNB GOLD, WIREDSCORE and SMARTSCORE certifications, making it one of the most sustainable and wellness-focused commercial buildings in the market.
LEADERS IN sustainability
Constantly striving to achieve greener and more sustainable ways of delivering their projects, Ghelamco have become pioneers in the creation of energy neutral concepts, meeting the highest ecological standards across their entire global portfolio. Most recently, their Wronia 31 Warsaw building was formally recognised as the greenest building of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) at the BREEAM Awards 2019. Continuing this tradition, The Arc is targeting a BREEAM excellent rating, a WELL Certified gold and a DGNB Certificate.
Fully electric, The Arc’s carbon emissions are 30% lower than its multi fuel-operated cousins. Out front, a new public piazza has been designed around a preserved tree at its centre, with seating added for people to enjoy and provide a natural counterweight to the fast pace of this part of town.

LEADERS IN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Market leaders in sustainable development, every one of Ghelamco’s projects has been awarded either Outstanding or Excellent BREEAM certification. Constantly striving to achieve greener and more sustainable ways of delivering their projects, they’ve become pioneers in the creation of energy neutral concepts, meeting the highest ecological standards across their entire portfolio. Their Wronia 31 Warsaw building was formally recognised as the greenest building of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) at the BREEAM Awards 2019.
LOW CARBON, RESPONSIBLE DESIGN
A fully electric building, The Arc’s carbon emissions are 30% lower than its multi fuel-operated cousins. Combined with low energy heating and cooling ceiling system, cutting-edge electric heat pumps and the highest possible grade insulation and glazing, it makes your carbon footprint one less thing to worry about.
IMPROVING THE LOCAL ENVIRONMENT
The public piazza at the front of the building has been designed around the preserved tree at its centre. Landscape Architects Grant Associates have reimagined this area with seating added for people to enjoy, providing a natural counterweight to the fast pace of the location.
SMARTER WORKING
Super fast fibre, smart building technology and more access points mean your team don’t feel restricted when it comes to how they work, while dedicated lifts for the office floors are destination-controlled – waiting times less than 30 seconds – so you’re never in a rush for the next meeting.
COMFORTABLE CLIMATE CONTROL
Unlike traditional methods of heating and cooling in office spaces, The Arc’s Climate Ceilings create a more natural and healthier environment within which to work. Drafts are eliminated and humidity levels are maintained at a comfortable level. Heating and cooling via radiation does not generate air currents, which are capable of promoting the spread of viruses. The system therefore drastically reduces the spread of bacteria.
With an average of 15 l/s/person, the level of fresh air filtration far exceeds all recommendations for new workplace health guidelines. This, combined with a host of other measures and design details, supports positive wellbeing and peace of mind for all.
Smart office space kitted out to a defined specification and ready for you to jump straight in, the whole process completely hassle-free and with no last-minute hurdles.
A SAFER WORKING ENVIRONMENT
All communal surfaces are disinfected several times a day, with wall-mounted sanitiser dispensers on every floor and every room, so you can be confident the health and safety of your best and brightest is in safe hands.
DESIGNED TO BE FLEXIBLE
Large, open floor plans provide 148,048 sq ft over 7 floors. Flexibility has been built into the fabric of these spaces, designed to let you create an environment in which your business can thrive.
No more one size (or shape) fits all.
