Planning & space planning
ATG Salvi (Steelcase dealer in Slovenia) and Steelcase designers worked in cooperation with the main architectural team and the internal Pivovarma Laško project team to discuss together and define the furniture design and the elements of the project in a flexible environment.
Results
The Steelcase Forward space solution enabled the new offices to have spaces opened to each other. It helps people feeling they belong to the same team, with easy access to their colleagues and leaders. The post & beam configurations supports collaborative situations, creating the ideal setting for taskig, teaming, and in-between. The loosely structured environment creates a culture of freedom and mobility in the office. The new furniture allowes new working situations and triggeres an innovative approach.
For the management level P70 program provides the perfect solution.
