Transforming a Workspace into an Inspiring Environment: A Case Study of De Projectinrichter’s Groningen Showroom

De Projectinrichter‘s recent project in Groningen exemplifies how a workspace can evolve from being purely functional to becoming a source of inspiration and productivity. Collaborating with stylists Bregje Nix and Nanouk Souren van Ramshorst from circlestudio.nl and renowned brands like Puik Design, Vitra, Steelcase, Robberechts, Milliken & Company, and Vescom B.V., the showroom was transformed into a dynamic environment that caters to various work activities and design aesthetics.

A Vision Realized Through Collaboration

Previously, the Groningen showroom was a utilitarian space, designed solely for functionality. This project highlighted the significant impact that a clear vision, cohesive color palette, and strategically placed accessories can have on a workspace, transforming it into an inviting and inspiring environment.
