Interior Design
Area: 8500 sqm

The objective was to centralize operations, improve cooperation and communication, develop new ways of working, create a unified work culture and enhance space efficiency. The layout solution was a multi-use work environment where employees can freely choose the most suitable space to work in. The themes in the interior design vary from ice and coal to bright and strong colors. In the beginning of the project a goal was set that the building was to achieve a Gold LEED certificate. To meet the objective to improve cooperation and communication the spaces were designed to be as open as possible. To avoid any acoustical challenges in the open office a series of quiet rooms and furniture were placed near the work areas. The furniture manufacturing market didn´t have suitable solutions to furnish the quiet areas so GI designed the Into the Nordic Silence furniture collection. An essential point in the design was that all solutions follow sustainable development principles.
