When tasked with designing a new floor of office space in Poznan, Poland, ZONA Architekci opted to follow the train of thought guiding modern offices. Rather than reverting to a staid, uninspiring wash of grayish white panels and sound-absorption, ZONA Architekci went with a charmingly Millennial office environment filled with fun and playful elements.
Since people spend the majority of their weekdays in the office, a pleasant space is essential. ZONA Architekci's Poznan office delivers on that with an open concept space that accentuates natural light, extensive columns of raw wooden beams, and free lines of sight. It also has some cheeky design to it, with a functional hanging swing adorning one of the office's many communal spaces.
