  • Arquea Arquitetos realized the office design for global hair product company, Keune Haircosmetics, located in Colombo, Brazil.

    Keune, a renowned Dutch cosmetics brand, kept its administrative headquarters and logistic hub in separated properties. To integrate the logistics and office, the brand hired our studio to project a new headquarter.

    The project sought to materialize in architecture the new way of thinking of the company. The essence and characteristics of Keune products, refined, exclusive, and minimalist, have been translated into an architectural language. The white color and the light are the protagonists, but wood and plants temper the coldness of minimalism, making spaces more cozy and pleasant.

    The proposal integrates the workspaces, allowing different sectors of the company to connect; it is possible to see everything that is happening. For this reason, we also created openings from the administrative areas to the storage and packing area, giving visibility to those hidden areas. It is an integrated architecture, which can improve working relationships and, therefore, the company’s efficiency.
