The Context

During the pandemic, the icapps team realized they needed to reinvent their space. The employees enjoyed the flexibility and could choose if they wanted to work from home or the office. However, the management knew they needed to provide extra value to make working in the office attractive again and worth the commute.

‍

The team decided to redesign the office and enable the new hybrid way of working. icapps wanted to provide a more efficient co-creation and collaborative environment but also offer spaces where people could focus. Additionally, they wanted to add more rooms for informal, non-work-related activities.

The Outcome

With over 100 colleagues, icapps is a true example of inclusive company culture. Every team member at icapps is equally important. To ensure we created a workspace that would fit everyone, we kicked off the project with a survey asking the icapps team what was important to them. The results were clear: spending time with colleagues and collaborating efficiently.

‍

One of the new things we added was the tribune, where the team could share knowledge and connect in both work-related and informal ways. We also created an open kitchen, so the employees could socialize during their lunch break and easily catch up with colleagues. Considering the employees also needed focus rooms, we added silent and isolated areas where icapps team members could do their deep work without distractions.
