The America House office building in central Bucharest was refurbished as part of a €10 million investment that included the upgrading of the exterior ground floor area and the extension of green spaces. 


Around 1,800 sqm of unused space on the first floor was turned into offices as part of the project that was coordinated by AMA Design studio. Fortim Trusted Advisors also oversaw the refurbishment as property manager.

“America House is proudly presenting its new look: the stylish reception, the high-tech facilities, and the cosmopolite pedestrian area, following 1.5 years of intense refurbishment,” said David Hay, founder, and CEO of ADD Value Management, the asset management company of America House. The lifts and security systems were also upgraded in this period.
