Infocommunications manufacturer

The result was a unified headquarters, consistently implemented on several levels, which perfectly combines Asian and Western elements in its style and contributes to employee wellbeing through its harmonious balance.

The foreign-based infocommunications manufacturer – a telecommunications service provider and equipment manufacturer – has been operating in Hungary for many years with its products and services. The number of its employees is constantly growing, so the time was ripe to create a headquarters where employees can work together more efficiently in one building, instead of the previous multiple locations in Budapest and the suburbs. In addition to the consolidation, the task was also to create a representative location worthy of the company’s reputation and market position.

After the selection of the location (Agora Budapest), DVM group was asked to design & build the office development project, which occupied 5 floors and was implemented in 3 phases due to the impressive size of the area. In addition to the classic office space, the clients had a unique requirement for a large-scale staff restaurant and kitchen, which would provide 1,500 square metres of space to cater for special culinary needs and also allow for in-house events.

To this end, the restaurant will also have a separate auditorium and event room, where traditional celebrations can be held for a team of around 500 people. For the visualization of the office interior, several 3D visualization plans were created, which accurately reproduced the spaces and colors envisioned by the interior designers. The designers focused on naturalness, primarily through the use of natural colours and lots of green plants, complemented by red and white (the use of red in their culture is associated with business success, dynamism and luck).

The clients used a design guide as a starting point, which had already been used successfully in the German office. The result was a unified headquarters, consistently implemented on several levels, which perfectly combines Asian and Western elements in its style and contributes to employee wellbeing through its harmonious balance. The next step in the expansion will be the creation of a new 500 square metre “showroom” in 2022, where the company’s full range of equipment will be on display, making it suitable for hosting business partners.
