Falstaff Headquarters

Falstaff Verlag’s new headquarters occupies the second floor of Vienna’s historic "Haus am Schottentor," formerly a bank. The design balances linear workspaces with striking highlights — like the reception, tasting area, and meeting room — each featuring soft, rounded shapes for an engaging flow. Key elements include white furniture with perforated patterns, rose mirrors, bordeaux-accented glass dividers, and a custom carpet, all creating a bright, warm ambiance. An 8.5-meter video wall marks Falstaff's digital shift, while art by Billie Thanner and Eva Schlegel punctuates key spaces.

Established in 1995 by Armin Ebner, Susi Hasenauer and Stephan Ferenczy, BEHF Architects is an award-winning architectural office located in Vienna, operating at international level.

BEHF is an experienced team of architects, planners, interior designers and strategic minds, responsible for the overall project stages, from the initial strategy and start of the design through all planning phases to the completion. Since its foundation more than 25 years ago, BEHF team has realised 27 rollouts in 16 countries across 1,195 locations.
