Temporary project collaborations require a flexible office layout.
Frequently, outside consultants have to be accommodated among regular
staff.
An invisible and sophisticated system of high-tech cables functions
in ever-changing situations. Interior space adapts through strict
and clever zoning. Along exterior walls with horizontal ribbon windows
booths provide privacy for concentrated work. Uniform and therefore
interchangeable. Open office space for working together in teams is
grouped around the glass curtain walls facing the interior courts.
The middle zone contains all service areas and conference rooms.
Space, materials and colours support the division into distinct office
environments. Open and light at the periphery, more subdued in atmosphere
and colour in the middle. On every floor there is a service unit with
pantry, mail boxes, lockers and cloakroom. Each unit has its own striking
colour, contrasting with the natural hues of floors and walls.
