Converting the famous bar into the new headquarters of KIDO, Thailand childcare center chains is the real twist of the architectural program.

“Turkey's one of the biggest startup” GETIR with 1,200 employees has an office area of 1,600 square meters on two floors in Etiler Doğuş Center.
In order to provide more innovative and flexible office space for the employees of GETIR HQ, employers held a competition with the specific brief and timing.
In this brief, approximately 350 square meters of the 1,600 square meters was allocated as “The Village Square”. This area was explained as the founders and employees are in the same place without any hierarchy in the startup spirit. The competition process ran for 1 month, videos and visualizations were also presented. Especially the progressive ideas behind “The Village Square” was set forth by URBANJOBS. After winning the competition, the design process was launched.
“The Village Square” was demanded as a multi- functional area to be used for meetings doing pilates, holding concerts where employees can easily chill and socialize.
There was a bit challenging thing about this brief: The founders and employees to exist in the same environment with transparency. While providing privacy for the founders, it should also be ensured that employees feel themselves comfortable.
This base is a high-end commercial complex with 6 high-rise towers containing offices, hotels and business apartments. Adjacent to the CBD district, it is also located between two central parks in Shenzhen. URBANUS’ design task was to construct a 100,000 m2 loft of apartments and offices on top of a shopping center larger than 60,000 m2.
To release the enormous pressure from the vertical dimension of the high-rise tower, we take advantage of the large area of the LOFTs, creating two artificial mountain volumes, in response to the huge scale of the towers. At the same time, the design connects the project to the natural form of the surrounding Lianhua and Bijia Mountains. This design also encloses a quiet space, by connecting the 3-4 level high-density office LOFT through exquisite sidewalks, creating a small town with rich spatial variation. There are also some public spaces, such as the LOFT Theater and the Trading & Exhibition Center that gradually transform the “big” and “solid” periphery space to the “small” and “dynamic” inner region. The Loft Town has accommodated a shopping mall, business offices and apartments, creating a new model of settlement which integrates residents, offices, shopping malls and cultural spaces.

CAMPUS ‘25, Raiffeisenlandesbank Oberösterreich in the state capital Linz, Upper Austria Openness, flexiblility and multi-functionality are the guiding principles for the new CAMPUS ‘25 development in Linz. A wide range of services and facilities for the Raiffeisenlandesbank Oberösterreich will be accessible and open for use by the wider public.
The new building for the Raiffeisenlandesbank Oberösterreich is the central cornerstone of the campus, transforming the site between the Blumau Tower and Südbahnhofmarkt into an innovative and vibrant setting. Its co-working zones, shops, restaurants and exhibition spaces provide a stimulus for businesses, while simultaneously improving the outdoor spaces for the general public.
This 91,050-square-foot project transformed a tired ‘90s tilt-up building into a modern and inspiring workplace. The goal was to take an office packed with a warren of cubicles and transform it into a high-performance, contemporary office building which would set a precedent for future campus renovations and help attract and retain Silicon Valley talent. Photovoltaic panels now power 100% of the office spaces, while new roofing, insulation, and a new building skin have vastly improved the building’s energy performance.

Innovation and history come together in DEGW’s interior design and fitout for the innovation hub created by Crèdit Agricole
An open and inclusive ecosystem supporting business and innovation for start-ups and other companies. There are 2700 m² of space with 200 workstations for accommodating approximately 50 start-ups in the peace and quiet of the renovated cloister of a 14th century convent, whose entrance gate is in a building along Corso di Porta Romana in Milan.
Devised by Crédit Agricole in Paris in 2014, the Le Village project now operates in 29 different locations in France with others soon to open.

“We spend 70% of our waking hours at work, and work today extracts from us. It makes us age, it makes us stressed. What if work could instead heal, rejuvenate and actually make you younger and healthier?”
This is Mindvalley’s take on a healthier, user-centric workspace. Inspired by the jungle gym playscape and Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia, the new Mindvalley Creative Office in Kuala Lumpur features a multileveled workscape bathed in polychromatic light that shifts throughout the day. Designed collaboratively with IDEAWORKSHOP, the entire process began by rethinking the very concept and functions of an office and radically optimizing layouts, materials and spaces for human performance.
Their new Irish HQ, Staycity invited ODOS Architects to design a contemporary workspace located within an existing protected former mission hall in Dublin City Centre. The brief required separate distinctive zones for diverse functions and also included social areas, break-out spaces, a gym area, and an all-hands event space.
