Creating a Homely and Inspiring Office: A Case Study of DBM’s Alblasserdam Project

The recent office redesign for DBM in Alblasserdam, led by Else Anna van der Meer and Anouk Lindgreen, highlights how thoughtful interior design can transform a workspace into a welcoming and vibrant environment. The redesign included reimagining various areas of the office, such as the game room, entrance, meeting room, canteen, kitchen, and workspaces, to reflect a warm and inviting atmosphere.

A Vision of Warmth and Creativity

DBM, a forward-thinking company, desired an office that was not only functional but also engaging and comfortable. The building was completely revamped to create a space that feels both robust and homely. The design successfully integrates creativity with practicality, enhancing the overall work environment.

Project Highlights:

1. Embracing Comfort and Warmth

• Objective: Transform the office into a space that feels homely and welcoming.

Puik Design’s Contribution
