Reflection of corporate culture and a home for employees: The MOL Campus in Budapest offers a working environment inspired by urban life

“I can’t be grateful enough for your creativity, dedication, passion and style what you and your teams put into our home.”

Central elements of the design concept are the lush greenery and so-called microarchitectures. The planting runs through the building like a green ribbon, from the exterior to the atriums and upwards through the floors. In individual areas, the greenery is so dense it creates veritable green spaces.

Microarchitectures within the architecture

Kinzo also designed microarchitectures to structure the wide, open spaces of the office floors and to create functional places for meetings, kitchens and checkrooms.

The MOL Campus gives employees the opportunity to choose their preferred environment for working and interacting with their colleagues during the course of the day. This allows individuals to experience themselves as a community and part of the collective.
The use of color also plays an important role in the project: Strong tones in partly stark contrasts enliven the interior and offer employees moments of visual identification.

In 2017, Kinzo prevailed against numerous international competitors with its concept of initiating and promoting this cultural change by creating an agile working environment for the energy company.
