About Acronis Sofia Kontorlokaler

Acronis' kontorområde i Sofia strækker sig over 5 etager i en af Sofias mest progressive kontorbygninger, NV Tower. Helen Koss Interiors fik til opgave at udvikle et kontordesign baseret på virksomhedens brandidentitet. Udviklingen af layoutet og designet blev udført via online workshops i samarbejde med flere teams i virksomheden placeret verden over. Designteamet implementerede de højeste standarder for finish, sikkerhedsfunktioner, hygiejne og innovation. Inspirationen til belysningen i rekreations- og samarbejdsområder var hentet fra James Turrells fascinerende værker.
