The work environment for the international supplier in healthcare solutions highlights the predominant characteristic of its people, a strong patient driven attitude. With that in mind we were able to tear down the walls in order to create a transparent, open work environment.
The activity based working concept is completely tailored to the company while the design makes use of the unique building layout to make a perfect fit. It interconnects two floors that both cover several building wings.
With each user journey leading along surprising nooks and corners, the design comprises a gradual sequence of collaboration spaces, concentration spaces, workstations and meeting rooms. Several coffee hubs alternate with the work areas to consolidate a comfortable and captivating user experience while meandering the office floors.
The patient driven attitude translates to a comfortable interior that incorporates lifesize graphics.
An outspoken design and materialisation concept aligns the spatial variations to create a warm and uniform identity. Bronze coloured frames and green floor-to-ceiling cabinets form the base pallet, which is enriched with dark wooden accents and integration of lots of natural green. Subtle contrasts are made in the colour scheme with hues of grey, green, brown and ochre. The office optimally supports employee wellbeing and reflects the intricate motivation of most by accommodating large scale graphical expressions of the colourful lives healthcare is concerned with.
A vibrant meeting hub connects the conference area with the activity based working environment. This central meeting hub and coffee corner features a void with a custom designed pendula above the stairs, playfully reflecting the intricate balance between people and their health.
