Steelcase 慕尼黑学习与创新中心 (LINC) 是对现有结构的彻底改造。设计工作利用了多元化国际团队的专业知识——慕尼黑 Henn Architects;Patrick Jouin 和 Manku Design,巴黎;和 Steelcase 设计团队。设计团队的愿景是将一个过时的办公空间变成一个吸引员工和访客的目的地——一个面向未来、鼓舞人心的学习和创新中心。

Steelcase 设计和工程团队负责人 James Ludwig 说:“我们设计 LINC 是为了支持一种文化转变,从将工作场所视为’公司办公室’到将其体验为’创意工作室’。”

LINC 旨在通过将个人和团队聚集在一起并无缝集成他们完成工作所需的技术来支持他们的需求。作为一个相互关联和相互依存的环境生态系统,它为不同类型的工作提供了不同类型的空间,并认识到拥有选择和控制可以提高人们的幸福感和参与度。

该设计有意促进运动和姿势的变化;人们不是一天中的大部分时间都坐在指定的办公桌前,而是根据他们的任务、他们使用的技术或他们的心态从各种环境中进行选择。

员工可以通过一系列用于协作和互动的空间以及用于专注工作、个人对话或安静、平静的插曲的屏蔽或封闭环境来管理他们的隐私。他们可以通过支持面对面交互以及与其他地点同事的虚拟协作的区域和技术来管理他们的存在。

欢迎来到慕尼黑学习与创新中心 (LINC) 的参观者积极参与专为主动学习、发现和创新而设计的体验。在这里度过的任何时间,无论是面对面的还是虚拟的,都是一个亲身体验空间如何解决业务问题并对战略、品牌和文化产生积极影响的机会。

The Steelcase Munich Learning and Innovation Center (LINC) is a total reimagination of an existing structure. The design effort leveraged the expertise of a diverse international team—Henn Architects, Munich; Patrick Jouin and Manku Design, Paris; and the Steelcase Design team. The design team’s vision was to transform an outdated office space into a magnet destination for employees and visitors—a future-focused, inspiring center for learning and innovation.

“We designed the LINC to support a culture shift from thinking of the workplace as ‘the corporate office’ to experiencing it as ‘the creative studio,’” says James Ludwig, who heads the Steelcase design and engineering teams.

The LINC was purposefully designed to support the needs of individuals and teams by bringing them together and seamlessly integrating the technologies they need to do their work. As an ecosystem of interconnected and interdependent environments, it provides different kinds of spaces for different kinds of work and recognizes that having choice and control improves people’s wellbeing and engagement.

The design intentionally promotes movement and posture changes; instead of sitting at an assigned desk most of the day, people choose from a variety of environments depending on their task, the technologies they’re using or their state of mind.

Workers can manage their privacy with a range of spaces for collaboration and interaction as well as shielded or enclosed settings for focused work, personal conversations or a quiet, calming interlude. They can manage their presence, with areas and technologies that support face-to-face interaction as well as virtual collaboration with colleagues in other locations.

Visitors who come to the Learning and Innovation Center (LINC) in Munich are invited to actively participate in experiences designed for active learning, discovery and innovation. Any amount of time spent here, whether in person or virtually, is an opportunity to experience firsthand how space can address business issues and positively impact strategy, brand and culture.
