Located in the Leidsche Rijn district of Utrecht, the Dura Vermeer Inspiration Centre is a contemporary space where collaboration and innovation are the focus. The building consists of two parts, which are connected by a central reception area. We developed the interior design of the 6,000-square-metre office, creating open and flexible workplaces, meeting rooms, and lounge areas where employees can meet informally.

Sustainability plays a key role in the Dura Vermeer Inspiration Centre. The interior uses sustainable and recycled wood and fully recyclable floor finishes. In collaboration with our in-house circular partner Furnify, multiple pieces of furniture were upcycled, ensuring a seamless integration with the overall design. Additionally, furniture from four different locations was repurposed.

The indoor gardens and the four-storey green wall were designed by Makers of Sustainable Spaces. The greenery not only contributes to oxygen-rich air but also provides herbs for the kitchen and a pleasant atmosphere.
