Telia Company HQ – a new generation office When the move to a new building on top of Mall of Scandinavia was planned in 2014, Telia took the opportunity to use the project as part of the plan to become a ‘new generation Telco’. Telia has 3,800 employees and its headquarters measure in at 46,000 square meters. The office consists of five buildings; four of which are clustered around three large atriums. The assignment was to create a well-functioning, activity-based office for a modern media company. The challenges were many. The enormous scale, of course, but also the variations that were needed. Certain departments required special technical solutions while others, such as customer service, had other unique needs. For the interior design, we developed a concept called Spectrum/Speed of Light, which reflects the brand and the company’s digital operations. The main function is to be a place of cooperation and a place of inspiration and energy. Where they sit together, see each other, and are seen. Telia did a lot of work with branding at the same time as we worked on the interior design. We like to think our combined efforts tell the same story but with different ‘dialects’. With positive energy, world class technology and a wide range of possibilities, Telia moves into an office of the future.
