Ohja GmbH
Interior planning for a co-working space
Brief
Conceived by graphic designer Anne Krieger as a space for freelancers to work and network, Ohja GmbH moved into its newly founded co-working space in the dynamic Leipzig district of Lindenau in 2019. Together with the founding team, smow Leipzig planned the distribution of loose furnishings which correspond to the corporate design and complement the coordinated colour concept. In addition to 17 comfortable workplaces, a meeting room, a workshop room and the entrance area were part of the concept.
Realisation
Taking into account the spatial conditions, the planning team from smow Leipzig advised and supported the client in the selection of the loose furniture, selected to be both functional and reflect the corporate identity of the company. Vitra office chairs and high-quality desks by Nils Holger Moormann were used for the 17 workstations, which stand in an easy dialogue with the room-forming built-in shelves. In contrast to the formally reduced work areas, there is a separate telephone booth with colourful flamingo wallpaper. The highlight of the planning is a meeting room designed in muted colours with a solid green marble table, upholstered Beetle chairs and a rose-colored Multi-Lite pendant lamp by Gubi.
