At the beginning of March 2025, the ground floor of Slovenská sporiteľňa’s flagship building at 29. augusta Street No. 34 in Banská Bystrica was officially opened. On an area of over 1,400 m², we created modern and multifunctional spaces, including a congress and training room, extensive facilities, and employee zones. Various parts of the building underwent spatial changes, including the bank branch, the regional headquarters, the corporate center, and private banking.
A major transformation involved revitalizing the central part of the layout – a previously unused space with a ceiling height spanning two floors, which we converted into a bright, community-focused chill-out zone.
Over ten months of intensive design and creative work, we transformed the site plan and ERSTE Group standards into a timeless and functional solution that sensitively reflects the architectural specifics of a 1990s building. The subsequent ten-month construction phase included a complete replacement of the original arched glass façade. The new structure meets current thermal performance standards while respecting and preserving the building’s original architectural expression.
The result is a space that harmoniously combines functionality, comfort, and the brand’s visual identity, while fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation.
