through smart devices and wireless
networks which are accessible
internally.
To reach the maximum height of
the ceiling, that also chances the
perception of the space, exposed
ceiling is used instead of suspended
ceiling. The whole mechanical system
has solved in a mesh ceiling around
the core. Jet nozzle insufflation
technology is used for office spaces
and meeting rooms. By this way,
one of the problems mentioned in
workshop survey has been solved.
For the ING bank’s young and
dynamic staff, the design of the
office had to be innovatively. That’s
why colors and advertising works
were used surrounding the space,
‘feels like home comfort’ siting areas
and playfields were developed each
differing from flat to flat. The kitchen
is hold with a new understanding
and container cafes to grab and
drink something in were developed.
Phone booths for the private phone
calls and lockers used by each and
every employee to keep their personal
belongings and mails were added to
the space.
While managing the space, common
areas come into play with a significant
role in the whole building. For
instance, with ING bank Canteen,
people both meet their needs and find
a space to socialize by gathering.
Also the food court has become the
heart of the project by splitting it
up for multiple usages. These new
flexible functions enable to meet, read
and socialize with the help of social
stairs, winter garden, and basketball
court. Food court is converted into a
very active and useful space(s) instead
of using it only for one hour of the
whole day.
The renovation of ING Bank Turkey
Headquarters has been designed by
analyzing, exploring and thinking
outside the box, yet not interfere with
institution’s working structure. That
project puts an example of how to
make a working space both efficient
and joyful.
