Article source: Idea Asociados For the project of the Palacio de Hierro office building, innovation was the element that led to a natural break with the traditional schemes for offices. With the projection of this great company in mind, totally open areas were defined to achieve the integration of personnel at all levels, without forgetting the luxury and exclusivity that are the DNA of the image that characterizes this great Mexican company.

In the architectural interior program, most of the open-plan offices were located, highlighting the closed areas or services on islands with a concept that emulates perfume boxes. In this scheme the height was taken advantage of to the maximum – that in some points is of 3.40 m – and the facilities were mostly concealed to emphasize the amplitude of all the spaces and a unique comfort.

A large modular library wall runs along the 4 floors designed to function as the internal showcase for seasonal collections. Its design combines oak wood, with modules in yellow color at high brightness enhanced with lighting.

The spaces located in the main facades were designated as resting areas or informal meetings. Some are terraces and others are delimited by storage spaces to preserve the ordered and clear aesthetics of the Palacio de Hierro corporate.
