Concept design
Concept design The design work included several different spaces. Design of the reception area and entrance, as well as ideation of the façade of the building. The most extensive project was the design of the staff’s three-storey workspaces. This was one of the first plans of the new open office workspace thinking to be implemented. The design wanted to reflect a new-age thinking about workspaces. The idea was that no one has their own workstations. The spatial design was drawn up from a free noisy workspace to a quiet enclosed library space. New types of furniture and facilities, such as desks and meeting rooms, were also designed for the workspaces.
