Positioned in the sustainable EDGE Amsterdam West building, ABP’s floorplan was optimised with the use of smart spatial planning ensuring privacy within the work areas. Thoughtful placement of workstations and the incorporation of dividers contribute to a balance between an open, collaborative atmosphere and the need for individual focus and privacy.

This strategic approach enhances the functionality of the workspace, ensuring that employees can seamlessly transition between collaborative- and individual tasks in an environment that prioritises both connection and personal space.

Maximising the use of natural light was achieved by keeping most of the facade clear of enclosed spaces. The buildings light court is used to foster an open and transparent ambiance within ABP’s flexible workspace, thereby encouraging spontaneous interactions and collaboration.

Taking inspiration from ABP's distinctive graphic style prominently featured on their website and communications, we seamlessly incorporated these graphics into the physical space. Literal reproductions of ABP's graphics are used on the walls while on the glass partitions, the graphics are presented with only their outlines. This more nuanced integration goes beyond the expected, transforming the corporate identity of ABP into a visually distinctive and playful hallmark within the workspace.
