Our approach
From the inside to the outside – we consider the building from the users’ point of view. The focus is on the organisation. The space should support the users in their work as much as possible. We examine the current situation and work with users to find new solutions. We focus on the requirements for office and interior furnishings, taking into account government guidelines and the insights provided by New Work.

- Fewer building alterations/changes to furnishings once space is in use
- Attractive workplaces and satisfied users
- Forward-thinking and sost savings
Future of Work
