Microsoft House in Milan, Italy by DEGW

Article source: DEGW

DEGW has created a mix of “100% made-in-Italy” interior spaces for Microsoft inside Herzog & de Meuron’s iconic building, all designed in accordance with the firm’s corporate values: openness, visibility, flexibility, energy, dynamism and innovation.

DEGW’s project is part of a process Microsoft Italia has been undertaking for years in the name of a “New World of Work”, an approach to the dynamics of work that involves greater staff flexibility in terms of smart working and the use of functional and technologically innovative spaces to maximise cooperation. Well-being and the reconciling of personal and professional requirements are the linchpin around which time management and this new way of working revolve, making flexibility an important means of hitting targets.

During this process, Microsoft chose DEGW, which has designed interiors in which corporate values come together with new ways of interacting and working to create innovative, functional, experiential work settings. New ways of envisaging workspaces represent a different method of working.

Smart working is a process of development and innovation that allows corporate organisation to evolve and reveals hidden stores of enthusiasm and energy through a dynamic and cooperative workplace.
