OFFICES
At A2RC ARCHITECTS, the design of office buildings has evolved to meet the new expectations of users, marked by the rise of co-working and innovative work approaches, often referred to as the “new way of working.” These transformations, which redefine professional spaces, push us to think of offices as flexible, collaborative, and connected environments capable of adapting to new work dynamics, while creating places where employees feel valued, productive, and in harmony with their surroundings.
One of the key considerations in designing modern offices is the flexibility of spaces. Co-working, for example, requires a spatial organization where fixed workstations give way to evolving configurations that promote collaboration and mobility. We believe these spaces should offer a variety of atmospheres: open and shared work areas, as well as privacy pods for tasks that require concentration and quiet. By creating modular spaces, we allow users to dynamically adapt the environment according to their needs and preferences at any given time. This translates into flexible collaborative zones, reconfigurable meeting spaces, and individual offices for moments of solitary reflection.
The “new way of working” concept also involves a different approach to well-being at work. We design spaces that not only foster productivity but also comfort and the personal fulfillment of employees. We integrate natural materials, green spaces, abundant natural light, and careful attention to acoustics to create environments that are both calming and stimulating.
