We transformed 3,000 square metres in the Vinoly Tower in Amsterdam into an interactive landscape for Google’s European Headquarters. Inspired by the garage where Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin began their journey, the interiors incorporate graffiti walls, cardboard box lights, and exposed ceilings. Notably, the 70-seater auditorium, known as the Tech Talk, features a distinctive container wall.

The project has achieved high employee satisfaction through its playful and surprising environment and it also incorporates advanced sustainability solutions and the reuse of existing furniture.

The innovative floor plan features a central block, The Cave, which houses general facilities, creating an open, adaptable space around the perimeter, known as The Landscape, which accommodates individual workplaces. The layout enhances adaptability, allowing Googlers to collaborate and work in a dynamic environment while maintaining personal space.
