We wanted to create an office that makes you feel at home and a space were every room should have its own character, feeling, mood, colours, style, expression. Like a fairy tale with rooms as chapters on it´s own.

We wanted to find out what happens when…
… you have a board meeting in a room with plywood walls, sitting in a spectacular sofa with plywood cubes instead of tables.
… the conference room is all pink and soft.
… you can go bananas writing on every wall in one of the rooms.
… the interiors is shown and styled as you usually don´t see them in IKEA stores.

A welcoming, unexpected, open, sustainable, social, home-y, flexible, fun and creative space with room for personality, creativity, collaborations and privacy. The rooms are optimized for meetings, brainstorms, workshops, projects, focus, reflections, cocooning and unplug, presentations and individual work.

Parts of the old wooden floors were previously changed and most of the ceilings were previously made lower and could not be restored. Where the ceilings were intact we highlighted them by restoring and paint them in a color to highlight and draw attention to them. The wooden parquet floors were sanded and varnished matt. Some of the more contemporary wooden floors were painted or covered with wall-to-wall carpets.

We only used IKEA furnitures in all of the interior, but were free to mix news with vintage, repaint and refurbish.
