A community above the city
Wonderwoods offers Henkel a working environment where nature and connection are a natural part of everyday life. Green atria and planting extend into the interior, creating a setting for collaboration and exchange. The hybrid workplace concept supports different ways of working. From focused individual tasks to meetings, co-creation and informal encounters, all supported by smart technology. Moving from a standalone office to a shared, urban environment strengthens the sense of working together as one Henkel community.
Brand emotion, the Utrecht way
While the Amsterdam design focused on the diversity of people and brands, the Utrecht office places the Benelux market centre stage. Products and brands are experienced through oversized visuals, carefully positioned objects and dynamic photography that brings movement and energy into the space. Sharing the floor with the Academy of Hair allowed for a more expressive visual language and bold contrasts, while subtle industrial details refer to Utrecht’s history of steel and rail. The result is a distinctive yet cohesive working environment that invites, surprises and inspires confidence. Exactly what the Henkel brands stand for.
Growing towards a sustainable future
The BREEAM Excellent–certified Wonderwoods provides a strong foundation for Henkel’s ambitions in sustainability and wellbeing. Its vertical green structure contributes to urban biodiversity, while the flexible layout and shared facilities encourage efficient and conscious use of space. The result is a future-ready workplace where all Henkel teams feel at home and where, as the client aptly described it, true business emotion can be felt.
