Striving for the ideal fusion of nature and technology, we aimed to enhance client loyalty, foster networking opportunities, and establish the company as the foremost authority in heat pump technology, not just in Germany but globally.
Against all odds, we demonstrated our commitment to the task by delivering a unique design within a tight three-week timeframe.
The womb-like structure, constructed from curved wooden slats utilizing cutting-edge technology, achieved a harmonious blend of warmth and sustainability, leaving a lasting impression on every passerby.
Our design incorporated the latest communication technology, including a personalized interactive app for both clients and visitors, glossy sleek museum-like aesthetics, Virtual Reality (VR), and interactive screens. Additionally, a 10-meter Kinect Screen with motion sensors responded to body movements, offering an unparalleled level of engagement.
Our commitment to sustainability extended beyond the design itself. We employed reusable wooden slats and custom furniture, designed for ongoing use in Daikin’s future projects. The floors and walls, constructed for recyclability, further minimized environmental impact. Tensed fabrics were strategically used to reduce waste, and we implemented German Octanorm Systems for modular efficiency.
