It is a 766 square meters integral circular space reminiscent of travel, mobility and interconnection. Even though it functions as a whole, it’s divided into two zones – one for individual work, the other for meetings, socializing and relaxation.

The first «working» zone has neutral surfaces enriched with details employees fill in themselves, such as writable walls or lockers. The second «socializing» zone is more colorful, filled with Zagreb motifs: street number plates, yellow sheeting resembling the city facades, socialist tin can building surfaces, city skyline graphics etc.

People can gather around a grand community lunch table, in a cozy coffee corner, at the tram track meeting points with gliding tables, or in more private «rafts» dressed up in red Šestine umbrella design – one of the best known symbols of Zagreb. The iconic Zagreb meeting place, the city square watch, is also here, and it’s the place to meet guests of course, at the very entrance. The first thing guests see are the Upper Town tiles, a touristic symbol of Zagreb.

Large meeting room walls are covered with enlarged photos from other Booking.com destinations, taken by the employees themselves – thus rapping up the story about Zagreb meeting the world through Booking.com.
