Priogen Energy, located in the Westpoort Motion Building in Amsterdam, specializes in the short-term trade in (sustainable) energy. The demanding and intensive work of the employees demands a smart layout whereby on the one hand the dynamic work rhythm (24/7) of the “Traders” is supported and on the other hand space is made for relaxation and discharge. Optimal facilitation consists mainly of creating an “energy flow” that alternates action and stillness. The whole is, as desired, given a “chic” look to give the high quality of the services of Priogen identity.

Interface flooring contributes with their products to the creation of “positive spaces”. The latest collections are always designed on the basis of a current theme around sustainability. The theme for the demonstration of this stand, at the MaterialDistrict 2019 fair, are patterns that reflect the synergy between the high-tech and high-touch. Therefore the stand is made accessible by adding a “happy face”.

XS4all has asked us to make a design for their office at the Teleport Boulevard at Sloterdijk in Amsterdam. XS4all currently occupies part of the 1st floor and the entire 6th floor, in total there is 5100 m2 of office space with a rectangular layout in which a large atrium is centrally located through the building. Our proposal is to divide the circular square shape into different zones where there is a “hybrid” zone for connecting activities. The effective routing is supported by comfortable acoustics. Where necessary, we have softened the spicy black-yellow branding style. And given the premium character of this top service provider, we gave content through layered and nuanced material use.
