Realization

03 - 06/2022

CAPEXUS SK has been active in the real estate market since 2011. In 2015, it significantly expanded its activities on the Slovak market. Thanks to comprehensive services, the company's position was significantly strengthened, so over time the employees moved to a new address with
an enchanting view
in the centre of the capital.

Work zone with phone booth

We have deployed all our experience gained in providing our services so that the resulting effect is evident as soon as you start using the space and lasts for many years.

That's why we chose materials and technologies
for the 400 sqm area that are timeless and make life
as easy as possible for all employees
.

Welcome to our office!

Space for meetings with clients and small presentations

1) The Client Zone

The Client Zone connects the entrance, the so-called welcome area, and the main meeting room. The place is used for first contact with clients. At the same time, it allows us to hold small presentations and workshops through a cleverly placed podium and a simple
kitchen corner. The space flows seamlessly into
the main meeting room.

Open space with round desks

2) The Work Zone

The dominant element of the Work Zone is four round tables, which underline and support the philosophy
of open cooperation and interconnectedness
of each department
. Desk-sharing applies throughout
the zone, which not only helps keep the desks clean,
but also encourages fast and flexible collaboration between employees.

Sample room for clients as part of the offices

Here there is not only a stylish phone booth, but also a meeting room for six people, which also serves as
a sample room for clients, and one small room
used mainly for work requiring a high degree
of individual concentration
.

The work zone is the largest open part of the total space. To improve the acoustics, curtains controlled
by an intelligent system were installed along
the small meeting rooms and the inner core.

The biggest challenge was to design the offices to be functional and innovative at the same time. Every project comes with unexpected hurdles, and this was the case here too. We had to deal with moving the toilets because of how the piping was connected, and operationally coordinate all the technologies on the ceiling so that everything was ready for the final touches. The result was exactly as planned, the offices are attractive and innovative. At the round tables, we show a completely new system of work that supports our cooperation. We use environmentally friendly and natural materials, and we managed to wrap all this in a uniform style.

Lunch zone with atypical furniture

3) The Lunch Zone

The Lunch Zone is optically separated by an atypical furniture element, which serves as a storage space
on the side of the work zone and as a hanging system
for a large-screen TV in the lunch zone.

A sofa, a carpet, pleasant greenery and small round tables create a feeling of home. The ceiling in this part
of the space is characterized by airy backlit curtains.
A memorable part of the lunch zone is the smooth transition to the 90 sqm terrace.

A place where you will really enjoy online meetings

The main meeting room is an eyecatcher right at the entrance to the office. Massive contrasting glass partitions are set in a wooden frame. The installation itself required increased attention and maximum caution. Due to their size, the partitions were lifted to the sixth floor by a crane.

The room is equipped with state-of-the-art online meeting tech that allows you to actively collaborate on a shared document. The unity of the design is completed by a long table, a carpet to support acoustics and interactive lamps.

The kitchenette as an elegant part of the relaxation area

A bar at work?

The favourite part of the office for all employees is the kitchen in the lunch area. It was designed in the so-called bar style and is used to prepare coffee and drinks. The second, rear part, is intended for basic food preparation. This achieved the goal of maintaining a hygienic and clean open space all day long.

Unity from
the floor up

Vinyl. The ideal choice of material for office spaces, both in terms of maintenance and resilience. Imitation and laying in the so-called tree evoke a homey environment. At the same time, the individual zones are differentiated with carpeting to support and improve acoustics.

Ceilings – our pride and joy

We removed the original coffered ceiling, including utilities and lighting, up to the point of the existing ceiling. For a material that is acoustically absorbing and at the same time highly ecological, we chose a new modern technology based on cellulose. The air-conditioning system was completely refurbished so that, apart from aesthetic considerations, it also circulates as much fresh air as possible.

Modern technologies were also translated into highly intelligent lighting with a direct and indirect lighting component. The lighting principle is based on a biodynamic system. The brightness is automatically regulated during the day depending on the intensity and spectrum of the outdoor light. In this way, it comes closest to natural lighting, promotes work efficiency and reduces employee fatigue.

Atypical furniture as an original interior design solution

Ingenuity
in the details

Along the entire window section, there are several types of atypical furniture used not only for sitting, but also as an elegant storage space with a locking system. The cherry on the sundae when it comes to the overall comfort of employees is the changing rooms and showers designed for anyone who travels around
the city by bike
or scooter.

The office spaces breathe life, are spacious and beautifully lit. That's why we chose striking-looking
plants in the individual zones. An unobtrusive
earth-coloured blind is installed on the windows.

For me personally, the biggest challenge was to choose a supplier who could handle the application of acoustic spraying. We decided to cooperate with a Dutch specialist, and I must say that even the Covid restrictions did not affect our work in any way. We are satisfied both with the delivery date and with the work itself. I had some concerns about the round tables we brought into the office, but with hindsight I can say it was a great move.

Work team in design office environment

The offices of CAPEXUS SK are a beautiful example of a work environment that has opted for timelessness instead of eccentricity. The constantly changing requirements for offices, anti-pandemic measures and comprehensive comfort for employees were the main attributes of the overall design and build concept.
