Vodafone Offices – Istanbul
Swanke Hayden Connell Mimarlık has designed the new offices of telecommunications company Vodafone, located in Istanbul, Turkey.
In February 2016, Swanke Hayden Connell Mimarlik, was selected to design a Social Floor of 2500 m2 for Vodafone Istanbul Office. The floor consists of amenities such as hair dresser, market, tailor shop, shoeshine facility, fitness area, meeting rooms and a big cafeteria space which has a capacity of 550 seating.
The floor has a big garden area which enables outdoor seating options for lunch and resting. The main design idea was to carry the outside environment into the cafeteria. Corridors are designed as streets, the façade of the closed spaces reflects store fronts supported by selected materials, lighting and graffiti. The cafeteria is designed to meet the needs of different functions such as eating, meeting and resting.
The spaces are also being used for collaboration besides the lunch function. There are 5 different sized meeting rooms in the cafeteria, used for both formal and casual meetings which have AV infrastructure.
