h:32
europe's
biggest
fintech hub
Our most famous object hosts Europe’s biggest FinTech Hub – the H:32 office tower in the vibrant heart of Berlin - since 2017.
With a generous landscape of rental space, which extends over 8 floors across the roofs of Berlin, offers sufficient working area for more than 900 people. Worth mentioning is also the huge common and event area that was created to meet the hub's spirit as the ecosystem of the FinTech world.
At Scaling Spaces you can start with a single desk and scale to a whole floor – depending on your needs and growth phase.

location of the H:32
located in the heart of Charlottenburg
Charlottenburg is a versatile district in Berlin where authentic Berlin lifestyle meets the bustling spirit of the up and coming “City West”.
A wide range of restaurants, shops and bars is in walking distance. The famous “Kurfürstendamm”, the heart of West Berlin is just around the corner. The “Tiergarten”, Berlins biggest and most central park provides ample opportunities for a pleasant stroll or a lunchtime run to clear your head.
The Railway “Zoologischer Garten” is one of Berlins best connected infrastructure hubs and allows you to get to any important location in the city within minutes.
THE PLACE
The idea of Scaling Spaces and H:32 is to adapt to the constantly changing needs of young startups. This results in a space in permanent change and movement, in an office building where walls are built or torn down in a day if necessary.
A UNIQUE ECOSYSTEM
Scaling Spaces’ creative concept for H:32 reflects this dynamic. We wanted to bring the old and sober bank building to life and develop it into a unique ecosystem. Starting on floor 3, the foundation of our ecosystem is Science, while the ascending floors are named after natural habitats, e.g. The Forest or Outer Space. Teasing everyone’s imagination with these topics seemed important to us welcoming an atmosphere of exchange among the many different people co-working in H:32. Hence, we entrusted urban artists to interpret our chosen topics and floor colors spreading awesome wall pieces all over our common areas.
URBAN WALL DESIGNS
Urban art in the surroundings of Bahnhof Zoo has recently increased as much as the number of co-working spaces. In May 2017, the ephemeral project The House turned a former bank building near Kurfürstendamm that had been released for demolition into an intensive total art experience. Urban Nation has been inviting international street artists to paint facades in the socially difficult neighborhood around Bülowstraße for several years now, finally opening its “impossible” museum in September 2017. When Scaling Spaces started renovating the floors of the old headquarter of Berliner Bank in the same month it felt right to feature urban art on the dulling white corridors.
We invited artists, mostly based in Berlin, who have already worked in the surroundings. The idea was to see different hands, techniques and styles on each floor. Techniques from old school graffiti and mural paintings to paste ups, tape and all sorts of experimental mixtures – from abstract to figurative approaches. We especially welcomed the inclusion of tape art, an art form that has made significant developments in Berlin within the last 10 years.
All artists came up with great ideas for organizing the common spaces and breaking the monotony of the usual office enfilade. Their work started to breathe life into the different floors of our ecosystem, turning H:32 into a place of dialogue and imagination.
