Office design

The Haier Polska project was genuinely new territory for us, both in the functional challenge it set and in how we had to think about the space. It is an office and a showroom in one building, and neither function was allowed to compromise the other. Przemek Blechman Przemek Blechman The centrepiece is a showroom for two brands, Haier and Candy. That meant two adjacent kitchen zones, visually distinct but reading as a coherent whole — and one very concrete problem: fitting more than 70 appliances into clean, well-resolved cabinetry. Each zone carries its own visual character and states its brand clearly, and the two can be opened up and combined for presentations, meetings, social media shoots, or simply a quiet coffee and...

Alsendo is one of Central Europe's fastest-growing technology companies, a leader in e-commerce logistics. Rapid growth pushed it out of its old premises and into a larger headquarters in central Warsaw. The brief was one line, and deceptively hard: modern, but not cold. Most offices manage one or the other. Chrome and glass deliver modern and read as clinical; warmth usually arrives at the cost of looking dated. Ewelina Lekka Ewelina Lekka Ewelina Lekka Ewelina Lekka We ran the brand through the architecture rather than applying it to the walls. Alsendo's purple moves across painted surfaces, wallpapers, carpets and upholstery, so the office is recognisably theirs from any angle. The warmth comes from the other direct... More

Ochnik Development builds luxury residential property in Warsaw. Its new office occupies a building the company had just completed itself - which set an unusual condition for the design. The space had to work as a workplace and, at the same time, as the most persuasive possible argument for what the developer sells. Beyond the entrance, where the reception and the client meeting rooms sit, the interior holds the management and staff areas. The unusual decision was to finish all of it to the same standard. The parts clients never see are built exactly like the parts they do, on the reasoning that a company selling craftsmanship cannot credibly stop caring once the door closes.

The Fulfilio headquarters in Łubna represents a bold departure from traditional logistics facility design. Rather than treating office space as an afterthought to warehouse operations, this project demonstrates how thoughtful design can create a cohesive, inspiring workplace that bridges the gap between corporate headquarters and industrial functionality. Located adjacent to a major logistics center near Warsaw, the 1,200 square meter office challenges preconceptions about “warehouse-adjacent” workspaces. Instead of relegating office functions to a separate building or compromising on design quality, Fulfilio opted to create a democratic, green-filled environment where management sits alongside warehouse operations.

A new office for Azan, a Polish distributor of premium pet food, isn't located in a city centre or an office building. It was built next to the company's own warehouse, in a logistics park near Radom, in central Poland. Offices like this are usually the poor cousins of the workplace world: a few rooms bolted onto a hall, done to a minimum. There are thousands of them across Europe. We agreed with the client at the very start that this one would give people the same experience we design into the best city buildings. Daniel Remian Daniel Remian Daniel Remian Daniel Remian The constraint was floor area. A single space had to hold desks for both office and warehouse staff, meeting and training rooms, a canteen, a coffee p... More

This project presented a thrilling challenge for our team. Located in the very heart of Minsk, this office for a Belarusian company was initially a compartmentalized, outdated maze of small rooms that completely failed to reflect the status and ambition of our clients. Katerina Samoilovich From Cluttered Rooms to a Blank Canvas We chose not to compromise and completely demolished the existing layout. Within a month, we were standing before a true "blank canvas." Our primary objective was to blur the boundaries between office and home, creating an environment where the absolute comfort of a residential space seamlessly integrates with high-end business technologies.  Katerina Samoilovich Layout We developed an entirely new...

The interior design project for the office space in Bucharest was developed at concept stage with the aim of enhancing the existing spatial qualities while creating a dynamic and contemporary working environment. The brief focused on flexibility, spatial diversity, and the creation of a strong interior identity capable of supporting multiple modes of use. Ahrend Romania The design language is defined by fluid and dynamic forms that generate a vibrant and expressive spatial character. Functional areas are arranged organically, allowing for multiple circulation paths and varied spatial sequences. This approach encourages exploration and creates a workplace experience that moves beyond rigid zoning, introducing moments of surprise, visua... More

From the architect: Comprising five towers connected by walkable plazas and public spaces, this major commercial development is unusual for its multi-building, human-scaled approach—a contrast to the typical Shanghai superblock. Seth Powers Seth Powers An urban-scale development creates civic value Lujiazui Capital Plaza is located near the endpoint of Century Avenue, the main thoroughfare in Shanghai’s Pudong financial district. Seeking to connect the dense financial district to the north with Century Plaza to the south, a cultural district of parks and museums, SOM took an urbanistic approach to planning the development. With five buildings arranged around a network of plazas and public spaces, the site planning s... More

When the earth moves, it is not only the foundations of cities that tremble, but also the invisible structure of meaning we call civilization. Adapazarı, 1999 – a rupture in time, a seismic trace of loss, but also of a profound need for dignity amidst collapse. In that moment, the Bars of Athens and Istanbul did not respond with a legal memorandum or a bureaucratic protocol. They responded with a gesture – an architectural one. TCA was summoned – not merely as a provider of physical structures, but as an interpreter of a collective urgency. What emerged was more than a series of temporary law offices: it was an architectural palimpsest, written on the fractured ground of a devastated city. tuncer cakmakli architects... More

Design: Setter  ArchitectProject Lead: Michal LeitnerPM: Maof – Idan Baranes, Daniel HazanGC: Rom Geves Viola, one of Israel’s most prominent and influential technology investment groups, has entered a new chapter with the relocation of its offices to the new Landmark Tower in Tel Aviv. More than a simple change of address, the move became an opportunity to articulate a fresh identity—one that tells a story. Amit Gosher Amit Gosher Much like the group itself, composed of a rich tapestry of funds and areas of activity, the leading design concept chosen for the offices is weave. A material and graphic language of lines, connections, and layers creates a continuous sense of warp and weft—subtle in detai... More
