DELOITTE D\u00dcSSELDORF – An Old Factory for New Ways of Working<\/h2>\n \n

\n A project-based digital studio has been created in a former weapons factory in D\u00fcsseldorf, one that consistently prioritizes openness, flexibility, and collaboration. The impressive industrial architecture\u2014with its high ceilings, exposed structural elements, and spacious areas\u2014forms the foundation for a work environment that can continuously adapt.\n\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

Boxes Instead of Borders<\/h2>\n \n

\n The concept is based on the idea of integrating retreat and meeting areas into the open space as distinct spatial units. Whether it\u2019s a wooden box, a \u201csauna,\u201d or a greenhouse, these various themed spaces provide a sense of orientation and enable diverse ways of working within a shared environment.\n\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

\n\n
\n The space is divided into public workshop and client areas, as well as internal project zones where designers, developers, and consultants can collaborate flexibly. The result is a place that offers space for exchange, creativity, and focused work, while at the same time feeling surprisingly cozy. Not exactly what you\u2019d expect in a former arms factory.\n <\/div>\n \n

DELOITTE COLOGNE\u2014Classic Meets Modern<\/h2>\n \n

\n For the Cologne branch, a modern work environment was created across approximately 2,560 m\u00b2 and three floors, combining traditional consulting structures with flexible work styles. In addition to open-space areas and quiet rooms for focused work, the concept includes a kitchen-dining area, a library with quiet workstations, several lounge areas, and a variety of meeting spaces for both formal and informal gatherings.\n\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s a digital studio in a former industrial warehouse or a modern consulting space spread across several floors: both projects in D\u00fcsseldorf and Cologne demonstrate how work environments can be created that respond flexibly to change while also developing a strong spatial identity.<\/p>\n

With Kinzo\u2019s acquisition of Ply in 2024, experiences, teams, and expertises have been brought together. Since then, selected projects from the Ply portfolio have been continued as part of the shared body of experience within the Kinzo portfolio.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n
