Interior design
The design of the Fatboy headquarters reflects the youthful identity and creates a highly functional work environment. The floor plan was kept wide open and transparent, giving access to the variety of activities that take place. The original industrial character of the building is still visible and its rawness is highlighted. The design took shape by creating a free space within the building by deconstructing two parts of the first floor, leaving the center part as an ‘floating’ work-island. This central space becomes the heart of the organization.
The ground floor and the ceiling are ‘made in one piece’ by giving the complete floor the same green color and finishing and printing the ceiling with a repetitive pattern of tree tops. The interior elements that were added to the space create a kind of choreography that allows for mobility and personality.
