puknut će (puca)


Explanation:
Ovaj njemački idiom se obično koristi za "težinu", npr.
Toliko se udebljala da sve puca na njoj.
Ili: Puknut će (ili puca) od debljine.

U vašem se slučaju radi o prostorijama. Cijela bi se rečenica mogla/trebela prevesti na drugi način! Na primjer:
"Prostorije u glavnoj centrali u Diseldorfu su previše male/prenapunjene."

U trenutku mi nije poznat neki hrvatski idiom za istu stvar :(

Example sentence(s):
  • Toliko se udebljala da sve puca na njoj. (autor Jasenka Kljaić/Školska knjiga)

pun ko šipak


Explanation:

"pun ko šipak koštica" .....

ili umjesto hrvatskog idioma reći jednostavno da su PROSTORIJE TIMA ISKORIŠTENE DO MAKSIMUMA...kako god želite Davore

Example sentence(s):
  • Sinoć je karta koštala 100 kuna, a disko je bio pun ko šipak
  • Kuća na otoku Cabral bila je puna kao šipak; silazeći niza stube sapletali ste se o ...Odustala sam jer bi kupaona bila puna ko šipak. ...

zidovi su pretijesni


Explanation:
.... mislim da se za prostore može tako nekako reći... zidovi ureda postali su pretijesni...ili jednostavno prostor je pretijesan... ili možda okrenuti subjekt pa govoriti o ljudima koji su već stisnuti kao sardine:))... mislim da kod nas kad nešto ili netko puca po šavovima to češće ima malo drukčiju konotaciju...

"U trenutku kada su im zidovi vlastite škole postali pretijesni, a susjedna je osnovnoškolska ustanova muku mučila kako popuniti školske klupe i nije uspijevala upisati nove učenike, kao jedno od najjednostavnijih riješenja za učenike Škole za primijenjenu umjetnost nametnulo se useljenje u zgradu Osnovne škole Pećine."

Svakako zavisi od tona cijelog dokumenta koliko "slikovitosti" si možeš dopustiti, zato sam si i dala dvojku:)) jer to je naslijepo teško pogoditi

Asker: To bi možda išlo da se ne radi o službenom dokumentu. Zbog toga bi trebalo napisati drugačije, a da se zadrži smisao.
