Premico Offices – Helsinki
Mint & More Creative was tasked with giving the Premico offices an easy-to-navigate space for work in Helsinki, Finland.
Mint & More Creative designed Premico Group’s new office located in the heart of Helsinki. Premico develops, constructs and manages properties, so they wanted their office to represent their level of talent. The minimalistic office concept is built around the user experience of employees and visitors, from the inviting lobby to the comfortable and atmospheric lounges and calming working areas. This activity-based office was designed for modern hybrid work’s remote-meetings and flexibility needs.
The office of the future combines service and experience. In an era where anyone may work from home, the office needs to offer a little extra. Premico’s office has a carefully planned service path for guests and employees that showcases their expertise in property management. The entrance area is designed by Mint & More to be eye-catching with a soft and hospitable feel. The lobby’s refreshment smoothly welcomes visitors further in, while the meeting rooms, lounges and hybrid work areas offer diversity for the workday.Premico’s office concept is based on high-quality materials and a focus on beautiful and moody, fully adjustable lighting. All of Mint & More’s designed wooden elements, from furniture and storage cabinets to paneling and even the archway, were commissioned from a local carpenter. These tailored solutions create a harmonious and balanced feel. The office has a calming atmosphere due to its minimalistic style, activity-based layout and ample storage space. By simply reducing clutter and noise in the office, we can reduce users’ stress levels and create happier workplaces.
In their design, Mint & More aim for sustainable solutions. In addition to picking environmentally friendly products and producers, like recycled carpeting and domestic carpentry, Mint & More believe the best sustainable choices are those with the longest lifespan. Premico’s office had been stripped to bare concrete before the project, so their mission was to design the space to last time.
Mint & More Creative created timeless and conscious solutions that complement the building’s architecture and feel as if they have always been there.
