Poland Cushman feels the Vibe

Property and Facility Management
Cushman & Wakefield has been appointed property manager of the Vibe office building. Ghelamco’s latest development delivered 15,000 sqm to the Warsaw market.

The building features a BEMS that will significantly reduce energy consumption and an InBin app to analyse tenants’ carbon footprint on the basis of waste weight data. Its sustainability will be confirmed by WELL, BREEAM, DGNB and Green Building Standard certifications, with the goal of obtaining the highest ratings of Platinum and Outstanding in the first two schemes. The office building already boasts the highest level of SmartScore and WiredScore Platinum certification. Ultimately, it will be powered by 100 pct clean energy.

We have built a long-standing and positive relationship with Cushman & Wakefield acting as property manager for our buildings. The company and its professionals have excelled in the neighbouring complex The Warsaw Hub, so I am confident that the new office building we have developed in the vicinity of Rondo Daszyńskiego is in the right hands.
Jarosław Zagórski, managing director, Ghelamco Poland

Vibe is equipped with the proprietary Signal OS system, which monitors the building’s condition and thus provides an optimal working environment. Installing anti-pandemic solutions, such as virucidal UV lamps in lifts and ventilation systems, will help ensure the health and comfort of users. Vibe offers ample amenities for cyclists (including lockers, showers, parking and a repair station) and charging stations for electric vehicles and bicycles. The tenants already include Rödl & Partner, MDDP Outsourcing, and Porsche, with more soon to be announced.
