Premico’s new and more spacious office premises were completed at the beginning of the year in a historic landmark, Finland’s first concrete-structured commercial building on Aleksanterinkatu in Helsinki. In an era where work is increasingly conducted irrespective of location, particular attention has been given to space planning that enables hybrid work solutions and enhances the user experience.
In the new everyday work, the office will play an increasingly important role as an enabler of communality and creator of employee experience. Premico’s minimalist office concept is based on the user experience of Premico employees and our partners visiting the office. The inviting lobby, spacious and atmospheric lounges and calming work areas provide a high-quality setting for encounters and work.
Employees working in the office can choose from versatile spatial solutions according to their work situations. Dedicated areas have been designed for team collaborations or tasks requiring concentration. Well-equipped meeting spaces facilitate high-quality remote meetings.
The selection of materials in the office design is based on high quality, longevity, and eco-friendliness. Wooden elements in the furniture and storage solutions, extending to the vaulted hallway in the lobby, are crafted by a local carpenter. Responsible choices have been made, including the utilization of recycled materials, such as in the office’s carpeting and acoustic solutions. Beyond the functionality of user experience and spatial solutions, the office premises were designed to represent Premico’s expertise and professional image within the real estate industry.
“Our task was to design the space to stand the test of time and create solutions that fit naturally into the architecture of the building and do not burden the environment unreasonably. The carefully considered material and colour scheme has been designed so that the premises would have as long a life cycle as possible,” says Roosa Riski, Interior Architect and CEO of Mint & More.
“Our premises now communicate the real estate expertise represented by our nearly 50-person organisation,” comments Janne Vaula, CEO of Premico
