A transition space for recharging

Robert Bosch Ltd. planned to redevelop office and laboratory space in its existing properties and existing leaseholds. The investments were carried out in two phases in 2019, with Phase 2 works being carried out at the former location of the departments that were moved out after the completion of Phase 1. The customer engaged our office as a professional partner for the preparation of the design plans for the conversion works to be carried out and, following the selection of the contractors, for the execution of the works and the handover.

The transitory, indoor-outdoor spaces are inherently conducive to relaxed contemplation.

AT HOME IN THE WORKPLACE

Changing workplace demands

Our perceptions of the workplace have changed markedly in recent times. Employers are placing great emphasis on providing workspaces that are both functional and inspiring for their employees.

For Bosch, it was also a key objective to enrich interiors with elements that enhance the feeling of homeliness and comfort. With this in mind, we envisioned the newly designed canteen as a conservatory-like extension. The fully glazed north-western facade provides natural light and the planned hanging green islands and living plant walls create a unique atmosphere.

The natural materials used in the furniture, such as wood, leather and textiles, add to the homely feel. Visible but black painted ceilings add to the sense of space and are acoustically beneficial while being a cost-effective solution.
