Equality in Swedish culture is very important. I expressed this through a continuous, divider-free desk arrangement that runs diagonally to the perimeter. A subtle separation is established without walls that cut off collaboration. The spaces includes a print room, kitchen, workspace, lounge area, and library.
Beat the Bunker
-Tall skyscrapers may elicit feelings of intense enclosure or claustrophobia. Tall exposed ceilings, partition walls, and clerestory windows break from the monotony of typical corporate spaces.
- A high exposed ceiling , clerestory windows, partition walls, and drop lights draw in light and provide unique spatial volumes.
- Desks of natural materials (MDF, Bamboo)
- Light and transparent storage.
In-Plant
-Trees and shrubs planted into the raised floor are enhanced with radiating floor motifs. Nature’s presence provides a place of reflection and mental rest.
Identifying Space
- Architectural bays express subtle separations of space.
- Clerestory windows prevent blind corners.
One and Only
- Non-linear desk layout provides an opportunity for project teams to align on multiple axes.
Touch the sky
-Banisters run the perimeter along the windows of each floor.
Never Cornered
-Rooms are dissolved into spaces to enhance the collective mindshare. Rooms with walls are accented with angles, and curved corners.
Express Collaboration
- Tall rounded storage units at the cap of each aisle function as collaboration surfaces for quick exchanges between project teammates.
