With the goal of empowering people with the gift of music, JoyTunes
developed a mobile app that teaches both adults and children to learn and
play music, no matter who or where they are. The office, located in Tel
Aviv, was designed to encourage connectivity and to encourage
communication across all departments.
The heart of the office was a wooden stage located in the center of the
space. Containing a grand piano and access to a variety of other
instruments including electric guitars, electronic drums and woodwinds,
employees were encouraged to have fun through jam sessions any time they
wanted and during weekly happy hours. Being located directly under a
skylight allowed natural light to enter the space and created a spotlight for
the performers on stage. Located next to the kitchen and eating areas,
entertainment was provided for anyone on break. In addition to serving as
a musical practice stage, it also functioned as the setting for department and
company meetings.
All other departments were located around the stage and were set in an
open space setting, as were private meeting rooms, smaller hangouts and
phone booths. In order to encourage a healthy environment for its
employees, JoyTunes included natural elements in the office by installing a
system of wiring to allow greenery to climb and grow.
