About Denizbank Aquarium Kantoorinterieurontwerp
Denizbank Aquarium is een innovatie- en ondernemerscentrum gelegen binnen een bankhoofdkantoor in Istanbul. Het kantoor bevindt zich op een kelderverdieping waar daglicht beperkt is. Akoestische panelen die de zee en de beweging van water uitbeelden bedekken de oppervlakken, en getextureerde materialen roepen de kleurrijke onderwaterwereld op. Contrasterende kleuren worden gecombineerd met natuurlijke materialen om een levendige en evenwichtige ruimte te creëren. Modules met lage plafonds en gescheiden zitgroepen voegen comfort toe. Een verlichtingssysteem imiteert daglicht om de motivatie en het circadiaanse ritme van medewerkers te ondersteunen.

- Production Technology
- Contrasting colors are mixed with natural materials to create a vibrant and balanced space. Modules with low ceilings and isolated seating groups are designed to make employees feel cozier and more comfortable while increasing their sense of belonging to the company. The movement of the daylight plays an important role in the wellbeing of employees. Considering the fact that they spend majority of their day indoors for long hours; a lighting system that mimics the daylight has been designed in harmony with the motivation and circadian rhythm of the users.
- Design Challenge
- Office is located in under the basements, therefore daylight was so limited and that is why this project called ''Aquarium''. In office spaces lighting is the core issue due to keeping motivation high.The problem is solved with spatial planning, material choices and innovative lighting systems.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the relaxing effect of the water element and the colorful and always surprising world of the sea; It is aimed to create a space that makes users feel comfortable and keeps their motivation high. From the moment you enter the aquarium, you can feel the ocean feeling on all surfaces thanks to the acoustic panels depicting the sea and water movement, textured material choices that reference the colorful world of the submarine.
- Project Duration
- The project started in December 2019 and finished in November 2020, and located at Denizbank HQ / Istanbul.
