Bank Burgenland – office furniture with a feel-good atmosphere.

Comfort meets movement at the workstation.

The existing main building of Bank Burgenland was subject to a lavish remodelling and expansion. The project’s goal was to offer the employees a modern and superbly equipped work environment. The workstations, management offices, discussion rooms, coat racks and kitchens of the headquarters were subsequently refurbished.

All of the workstations were kitted out with electrically height-adjustable work tables that enable frequent changing between working while seated and standing up, and therefore get the employees moving more in everyday working life. The management offices and meeting rooms have convex conference tables that impress with one particularly refined detail: all wiring and connections are invisibly housed in the tabletop and the feet.

Living room atmosphere in the office.

Light fabrics and furniture in muted colours create a homely yet modern atmosphere in the office spaces. The plant trays integrated onto the cabinets bring a shot of fresh green to every floor, create a pleasant indoor climate and also serve as a means for zoning the space.

A quiet environment is also vital for people to concentrate on their work. Acoustically effective workstation enclosures absorb disruptive noises with their special composition and also create a better sense of privacy. In similarly sound-absorbent discussion booths, up to four people can find a spot for uninterrupted conversations.

“Our staff had requested height-adjustable desks to bring movement to their working day. They also wanted more storage space and somewhere to sit for brief discussions,” Gerhard Nyul describes the requirements for the furnishings.

Clever solutions for productive days at work.

To continue the harmonious overall vision in the furnishings, innovative enclosures were developed for printers and copiers. In this way the technical equipment disappears behind U-shaped, rounded walls that were customised in the same style as the discussion booths and workstation enclosures. The special structure with acoustically effective materials also helps to mute printer noise.

In meeting the employees’ request, tall desks in the offices were equipped with an integrated fridge in order to be able to keep drinks and snacks cool right at the workstation. There is somewhere for jackets and coats, with several bespoke coat rack elements having been installed on each floor.
