The New York based global marketing communications agency headquarters needed its interior design to match its innovative essence. The space needed to cause a revolutionary impact to its visitors. Open spaces create a horizontal power hierarchy where constant exchange of ideas fuel creativity. Visitors entrance is framed by undulating pieces which encompass a free-standing Ipad that serves as a virtual concierge. The CEO’s office is in the center of the office’s open space and is used as a meeting room when available. The space’s materiality is a game between carpentry that feel as inflatable walls and use of light which gives it a crisp futuristic yet restful touch. The employee experience includes various smart meeting rooms with a companion app that automates day to day tasks and other interaction pockets which potentialize productivity. “Prometheus”, for example, is a circular layout where congregation is completely flexible – meetings can be carried out in small groups or the whole space can be used for large gatherings if needed. Other spaces such as the “Monoliths” include personal pods when individual efforts need an extra concentration dose. Wunderman Thompson new headquarters by LAP is an important achievement for the region, signaling its growth and consolidation in Colombia.
