Skanska has started the development of the second office building of the H2Offices complex in Budapest.


The new building has a leasable area of around 22,000 sqm and is scheduled for completion in Q1 2027. It is planned to be certified LEED Platinum, WELL Platinum and Acess4you Gold. On top of these, Skanska is aiming for WiredScore and Smart Score Certifications. 

The company started the construction of the complex in 2020 and delivered the first building in 2022. 

“With Budapest’s strong office market fundamentals, we are confident this state-of-the-art development will meet the highest expectations of future tenants and set a new benchmark for the region,” said Katarzyna Zawodna-Bijoch, President and CEO of Skanska Commercial Development Europe.

Once this second project will be completed, beside the exceptional interior spaces, H2Offices will contribute to the community by enlarging the current courtyard to a nearly 3,600 sqm one, opened to the public.

Skanska Group has been operating in Hungary for more than 37 years and has developed more than 250,000 sqm of commercial space.
