United Stage Norway Offices – Oslo
Krohnark designed United Stage Norway’s Oslo office, blending industrial elements with brand colors to create a versatile workspace promoting collaboration and community through social areas and focus rooms.
United Stage Norway, Scandinavia’s largest music agency, is known for managing some of the country’s biggest artists and delivering memorable performances across Norway. The company’s main office, situated near Alexander Kiellandsplass in Oslo, is housed in an industrial building with rough architecture reminiscent of New York lofts. The project aimed to create a flexible and dynamic workspace that caters to various activities while fostering team collaboration and creativity.
The versatile environment caters to diverse needs, with social and team-building areas forming the core of the office. The spacious central area, dedicated to socializing and team activities, encourages spontaneous interactions and fosters a strong sense of community among team members. The kitchen space, enhanced by iconic orange curtains from the brand palette, provides a lively and inviting atmosphere for casual conversations and breaks.
Achieving a balance between social spaces and quiet areas for focused work and meetings was important. Scattered around the central social area, there are small focus rooms for concentrated tasks.
Drawing inspiration from the building’s industrial heritage and the company’s brand colors—black, grey, and orange—we curated a timeless and impactful interior. Concrete was extensively used to retain the industrial aesthetic and provide durability, while wood introduced warmth and balanced the rawness of concrete. Leather and velvet materials were incorporated to infuse luxury and comfort, particularly in meeting and lounge areas. Signature orange accents strategically highlight key areas, enhancing the overall aesthetic and reinforcing the brand identity.
By merging old industrial charm with contemporary elements, we’ve created a workspace that supports various work modes while fostering a robust sense of community and collaboration. We invite you to experience the vibrant and dynamic environment that drives United Stage Norway’s passion for music and creativity.
