About Iffco Egypt Head Office Kantoorinterieurontwerp

Het hoofdkantoor van Iffco Egypte is een kantoorinterieur gelegen in Caïro, Egypte. Het ontwerp combineert een moderne en levendige uitstraling met verwijzingen naar het Egyptische erfgoed. Strakke lijnen en gedurfde kleuren zijn ontleend aan de merkidentiteit van het bedrijf. Egyptische munten zijn verticaal en horizontaal op de wanden gerangschikt tot motieven die doen denken aan de oude Egyptische kunst. De open plattegrond biedt plaats aan vierenzestig werkplekken, elf managerskamers en zeven vergaderruimtes. Akoestische wol boven het plafond, textiele vloerbedekking en gipsvezelplaten absorberen geluid. Hoge plafonds houden het interieur licht en comfortabel.
