Art-Invest Real Estate Rebrands Living Office Düsseldorf as D’Carree Following New Leasing Agreements

Art-Invest Real Estate has signed three new lease agreements at its Living Office property in Düsseldorf, securing approximately 6,177 sqm of additional occupancy as part of a broader repositioning and refurbishment programme for the asset, which will be renamed D’Carree.

The new tenants include ERGO Group, NTT Germany and fitness operator aGYM.

ERGO Group moved into approximately 2,018 sqm on the fourth floor in early 2025, where it now operates its ERGO Campus. NTT Germany took occupancy of around 1,129 sqm across the second and third floors in March 2025.

Fitness operator aGYM has also signed a lease for approximately 2,655 sqm and plans to open its facility in early 2027. The concept will include training areas and fitness facilities within the redeveloped complex.

The property is currently undergoing refurbishment works alongside a wider repositioning strategy. The scheme, formerly known as Living Office, will operate under the new D’Carree branding, with completion of the redevelopment planned for early 2027.

Upgrade measures include the redesign of entrance foyers and the inner courtyard, the addition of balconies overlooking landscaped outdoor areas, and improvements to the underground parking garage, which contains 378 parking spaces. A new parking management system will also be introduced.

According to Art-Invest Real Estate, approximately 8,000 sqm of space remains available within the complex, including office, makerspace, restaurant and showroom areas.

“We are delighted with the lease agreements and the positive market signals following our acquisition in autumn 2024,” said Arne Hilbert, Managing Director at Art-Invest Real Estate.

“D’Carree impresses with its established urban character and unique architecture, featuring exciting spaces for networking and interaction. We are offering precisely what tenants currently value at this location in Düsseldorf. The repositioning as D’Carree and the extensive investments in the property create an attractive offering for all tenants,” he added.
