Skype’s new office in Sweden is situated in the München brewery in Stockholm. It is the office for about 100 employees, mainly engaging in developing the audio- and video for the Skype platforms. The interior design reflects the Skype spirit – a joyful, user friendly tool connecting people all over the world. So is the space – playful and functional. |
The triangular and rhomboid shapes of the carpet pattern, as well as the design of workplaces, tables and bar, are based on the concept of a net with connecting nodes. The colourful and round shapes of the furniture are derived from Skype’s graphic profile. Also, the Skype logotype, being a cloud, has been interpreted into ball shaped light fittings around the office. The Skype Stockholm office focuses on development of audio and video which is manifested in custom designed wallpapers where pictures of headsets and cables create patterns. The office has extremely good acoustics, necessary for this type of work, obtained by a large number of wall sound absorbers with and without prints.
