In the renovation of Saint-Gobain Finland's head office (2021–2022), both the premises and the work culture were renewed. The transformation left personal office rooms and designated workstations in the past, making way for an activity-based office with plenty of collaboration spaces and break rooms to support flexible ways of working.
Good acoustics were a major consideration in the project: a pleasant sound environment was created by using a wide array of Ecophon's suspended ceilings and wall acoustic panels.
The office building has the BREEAM In-Use certificate, which requires, among other things, adaptable premises, abundant daylight, versatile rest facilities and a good location close to public transport and pedestrian & bicycle lanes.
