The requirements for the visual look and feel were comfort, freshness and Scandinavian modernity. Within the HAUS offices, the working environment solution was a mobile one in which nobody has a designated workstation, but space is used flexibly. The compact but versatile space consists of a quiet zone for team work, smaller rooms for remote training, Skype meetings and confidential discussions, and staff break areas.

When planning the HAUS premises, the key concept was that, over time, more and more training would be arranged in other state-owned premises. That is why we wanted to create exceptional and flexible solutions in Yliopistonkatu. The lobby, which was made into a spacious meeting place, was put to multiple use, serving team working, training breaks and various events. The training rooms and lobby can also be used for work and internal HAUS meetings whenever they are free. We focused on the functionality of the lobby by commissioning high-quality fittings that meet the users’ needs, complemented by furniture that can be modified and combined and moved, if necessary, to the training premises, and vice versa.
