I believe everyone has been to a bank to do business! For more formal and serious institutions such as government agencies or banks, whether it is the design style of employee uniforms, the internal decoration color, the supplies used, etc. , it seems a bit dull and boring as if it is tightly bound by an invisible prison. However, some banks now seem to have gradually relaxed certain restrictive spaces, such as opening a day of casual wear, or placing some in public spaces. Artwork, but today we are going to look at the American bank Capital One. After seeing the space configuration inside, if it were not said to be the research and development center behind the bank, then you would definitely think it belongs to another design company. Headquarters!
In fact, this is the software development center of Bank of America Capital One. In order to serve online customers and related APP system software development business, in order to suit the group of creative people working here, Studio O+A was specially invited to customize it. To create internal details, you can see that the main body is a spiral staircase. The color code "Rustic Drama" is a neutral tone that favors goose yellow and indigo. The space below is decorated with pink cushions, allowing employees to relax here. After taking a rest and looking up, you can see the auxiliary beams with a color of "Gabled Blue", which is more of a gray-blue tone.
The tea room not only has a bar, refrigerator, and social space, but the lively colors are clearly visible here. Lime green, passion pink and wooden furniture, the designers smart configuration not only shows the creative team In addition to jumping and multi-faceted thinking logic, one of the founding themes of this team is to use pure functional elements to create the greatest effective experience value for customers.
Whats more, its specialWe have made full use of the concept of a treehouse, setting up a sleeping nook and placing a wooden ladder so that employees can take a nap in it until the sky is dark (maybe even when they haven’t closed their eyes for more than 24 hours). In that corner, there is a phone booth with walls made of recycled denim fabrics. In this seemingly orderly configuration, the designer’s careful consideration not only gives employees a temporary private space in a public space. The ingenious design of the small space also allows employees to find an appropriate outlet for relief when they face a lot of pressure, not to mention the bicycles hanging high on the wall, and books and magazines are also placed at the same time, symbolizing the balance between leisure and work. The proportion is still not to be tilted easily, work hard but also play hard!
In the eyes of designers, whether it is the bright yellow staircase hanging in the center like a landmark, or the resting corner standing in the side, the lively and colorful tea room, or the work area with bright and light colors, It all seems to give the employees inside a new conversion experience, reminding people who are doing the most creative work to not forget to always put the customers experience first.
