Areas furnished: Communal Areas, Living Space, Meeting space with lounges, Agile Work Spaces
Project specification: Redesign of common areas
The office and meeting rooms of digital agency oddity are located in the middle of Stuttgart. The focus for the newly designed level was on creating a large meeting space with an adjoining lounge. The closed area should be available for workshops and radiate a feel-good atmosphere. In addition, the existing communal areas between the office areas were to be upgraded in order to offer employees an inviting retreat space for breaks and exchange. To optimally achieve this aim oddity rented an extra floor in the building to house the new community areas.
The project aim was to optimise the available space without structural changes and to create a relaxing sense of space that is not only a place for breaks, but also space for concentration and communication.
Living Space I and II
The colour concept, which was actively pursued during implementation, immediately catches the eye. As with Living Space I, shades of blue were also used in Living Space II, which has a restrained, fresh and actually calming effect on the eye. The best conditions for healthy regeneration!
The expansive Living Space II was designed to match the existing facilities of the community areas in the offices. The large sofa as the central element takes up the length of the room and bequeaths it with tranquillity. A screen and blackboard are installed on the opposite wall. Acoustic curtains not only offer protection from sunlight, but also block out noise. Accent lighting creates an extremely homely character for the perfect retreat.
Meeting space with lounge
The meeting space with the lounge is decorated in red and rose tones: furniture, textiles and accessories were also selected in these hues. Harmony, warmth and friendliness are the result, along with the stimulating agency these tones bring with them via their psychological colour effect.
If you are lucky enough to be able to use charming old building rooms with stucco ceilings, it is only logical to include this in the design. Modern pendant lights offer an excellent contrast to the ornate stucco and pride perfect illumination for meeting. A large conference table in warm oak wood was combined with this. The chairs not only add colour, they complete the room with their Scandinavian simplicity without overloading it. This results in an attractive and cozy place that invites you to creative brainstorming.
The oddity agency designs modern campaigns, and that preferentially in spaces that inspire and create added value for employees and visting clients. Team spirit, well-being and creativity are important concepts that are also reflected in the walls of the office and, above all, the commonunal spaces.
The cooperation between the planning agency space & work and the furnishing professionals from smow Stuttgart resulted in two harmoniously coordinated rooms that reflect the character of the company and invite employees and guests to a creative exchange.
Feel-good atmosphere at its best, whether in a meeting, workshop or during breaks. Rooms have been created here that give creativity a special place.
Together with the founding team, smow Leipzig planned furniture to complement the corporate design and the coordinated colour concept. In addition to 17 comfortable workplaces, a meeting room, a workshop room and the entrance area were also designed.
