Created for great things: babymarkt’s home in the Bochum O-Werk

Created for great things: babymarkt’s home in the Bochum O-Werk
We have big plans! The rapid growth of recent years has meant that our old office buildings in Dortmund no longer offered enough space. For our new home, only a location that simultaneously reflects our history and our vision came into question from the very beginning. This is exactly what we found on the Innovation Campus around the former Opel administration building.
