Hofer Alpha Retail Network

Description

A former production hall has been transformed into a unique innovation center. And the courageous step has been rewarded. A seven-meter-high sawtooth roof floats above the state-of-the-art working spaces in which creative ideas and new cooperative approaches can emerge. In line with the principle of activity-based working, the employees of HOFER and students of the University of Applied Sciences can select a different workplace and supportive environment to match each new task or activity.

Statement of the jury

The emphatically open workspace offers a high degree of variety and flexibility. The spacious and intelligently structured space features workstations and rest areas, as well as zones for meetings and concentrated work. Colours clarify the areas and further lighten up the design. The design succeeds in being modern, contemporary and friendly in every way, promising a pleasant working atmosphere.
