Ecclesia

Location: Detmold, Germany
Overview

This project involved the complete fit-out of a new 2500 square metre office for a well known insurance company in Detmold, Germany. The large office encompasses numerous open plan work areas as well as conference rooms, meeting spaces, executive suites, kitchens, breakout spaces and an employee fitness studio.

Overview

Brief

The primary goal was for a visually striking environment that aligned with the principles of minimal design and futurism set out by the interior architects.

The overall design was to promote a sense of tranquility and efficiency, eliminating unnecessary elements while prioritising functionality.

The designers wanted futuristic elements and cutting-edge design concepts that evoked a forward-thinking atmosphere and the Formatio CAD team engineered everything with this in mind.

Result

We fulfilled the brief by incorporating a predominantly white palette, utilising wipe-clean hygienic materials for a pristine aesthetic. The strategic addition of contrasting black lines provided a visually dynamic touch. Glass elements brought transparency, fostering an open atmosphere, while integrated acoustic features within wall and workstation dividers ensured functional elegance and noise control. All joinery was fabricated in the Formatio factory and installed by our Installation Team.

Acoustically Sealed Meeting Pods

The design brief for the meeting pods emphasised the blend of minimalism and futurism. We meticulously crafted these pods to not only provide privacy for confidential discussions but also to make a bold statement with their sleek rounded corners and futuristic aesthetic. Acoustic sealing was a top priority, ensuring that these spaces maintain confidentiality and minimise disruptions from the surrounding environment.

Employee Gym

The employee gym ingeniously serves a dual purpose, facilitated by a large dividing wall that transforms the space into a versatile venue for group classes and company events. The far wall, adorned with mirrors, contains storage cupboards behind and is integrated with a conferencing TV, combining functionality and aesthetics to enhance the overall gym experience.
