CMTA New Office — Vienna (A)
Venerable, conservative, splendid, old-fashioned but very well-kept, they were the premises of the management of a well-known Austrian bank. A typical executive floor, in other words.
Then the CMTA took over the space. A dynamic team of bond traders with refreshing approaches to corporate culture, togetherness, communication, digital working, work-life blending and knowledge transfer.
And that’s exactly how the new workspace should be: a light, friendly, dynamic place full of energy and affirmation of life. An open, interactive patchwork of superimposed room modules that can be flexibly, freely and playfully interconnected and changed.
In other words, far from a classic office solution, it is more of a softly usable playground of changeable objects and spatial zones.
The existing mahogany furniture element in the centre of the office was inspiring. It was immediately clear: far too valuable to remove! So the wonderful mahogany speedboats by Riva (or Ghost Godfather) were the inspiration for the new design. We found the combination of the rather conservative but super noble mahogany with style-defining modern shapes, colours and materials sexy! Then we added a dash of Adriatic feeling…
So today, a fairly neutral, bright room forms the stage set for functional as well as playful objects with character.
Light and dynamic
