Challenge
After strong growth and brand renewal, Mash moved into a new office space at downtown Helsinki. The new office was renovated and furnished in four months to match the renewed brand image. The lounge, meeting rooms and kitchen were the main focus areas of the new design.
The goal was to create a presentable lobby that would function as a space for informal meetings with employees, customers and partners. On the other hand, the kitchen was to become a shared space resembling a living room for the employees. As for the other spaces, a facelift was needed. The client’s trust in Kohina’s expertise made it possible for the designers to let their creativity shine.
Benefit
The finished lobby became a whole that is functionable, easy to approach and representative of the Mash brand because of carefully selected color palette, materials and furniture. The large screen wall is connected to the other Mash offices around Europe and therefore can serve as a place to gather around with, for example, partners in different events. The furniture and equipment in the meeting rooms make them suitable for versatile situations ranging from Skype-meetings to brainstorming sessions. The kitchen area serves as a place for interaction during the working days, but also during events held at Mash.
Year: 2018
