Studio Piet Boon Global Headquarters

As a result the layout of the Studio Piet Boon headquarters is a translation of the customer journey and has therefore two different routings, one for staff and one clients. Preempting staff and clients using the same routing, an elevator was installed and two separate staircases were integrated in the building´s design to connect all the three levels, ensuring a smooth invisible (work) flow and separating the “front” and the “back” of the house from one another.

To add to this division we chose to use different levels of accessibility for every floor; the ground floor and multifunctional showroom being the most accessible and the floor of the design studio being the most secluded and only accessible for clients. In order to make optimum use of natural light, open working areas have been concentrated along the outer walls of the building. The terrace and outdoor areas optically dissect the building and act as connecting elements.
