Therefore, it was especially satisfying to be commissioned for the design concept of the subsidiary EQT Ventures aimed at a younger Start Up audience.





Challenge
- Create an inspiring office that reflects the company’s soul – a young, innovative and global tech company. EQT Ventures must quickly establish itself as a credible investor and the office is an important communicator.
- Find a separate identity to the newly established subsidiary company in relation to the parent company.
- A requirement for multiple rooms for their many internal client meetings with new Start Up companies.
- Visualise ‘Mother Brain’ within the interior design.
- Small premises and a fast growing organisation.
- Fit within the space as well as being able to grow within the premises.
Process
- Create an interior design with a clear Start Up atmosphere while at the same time integrating inspiration from the parent company EQT’s values.
- Create an office that becomes a natural venue for meetings. A welcoming place where you can meet and exchange experiences and ideas.
- Instead of being met by a classic reception, visitors upon arrival enter a relaxed lounge with a coffee machine and comfortable seating.
- The program ‘Mother Brain’ is visualised on digital displays in the room.
- The office has an external part with meeting rooms.
Result
- A personal office concept that reflects EQT Venture’s values and allows the company to stand out from other investment funding partners in the industry.
- The solution of coming straight into the lounge allows the staff to welcome their visitors personally and encourages natural and casual meetings.
- The public ‘Mother Brain’ installation is often a natural conversation piece during the meetings.
- The company is very pleased with their new office and how it helps them in their daily activities.
