Applied principles
The unique workspace for global software company JetBrains aligns with its core value of providing employees with a sustainable environment that nurtures wellbeing and productivity.
The interior blends landscape architecture, biophilic design, and principles of environmental psychology. Each floor represents a different natural landscape — desert, forest, fields, or mountains — transforming the workspace into an ecosystem that fosters creativity. It also prioritises employees’ personal needs, offering various spatial layouts. The customisable workstations provide focus, privacy, and comfort, creating a ‘home away from home’ atmosphere, while the team-based rooms become micro-communities, facilitating collaboration.
Sustainability is a key focus of this project, featuring recycled furniture and an automated system that adjusts sun protection, lighting, heating, and cooling based on sunlight penetration and occupancy levels. Employees can also configure their own space. JetBrains’ Amsterdam office stands as evidence of their commitment to both employees and the environment.
