TechMinds describes itself as a boutique-style personnel consulting firm. This claim was to be reflected in their new headquarters in Hamburg’s city centre. The agency asked for an upscale, modern working environment with a familial atmosphere. Based on these ideas, brandherm + krumrey developed a multi-space concept that allows for focused work as well as teamwork and informal encounters.

TechMinds specialises in placing highly qualified professionals in the industrial and digital sectors. The philosophy of this young company is reflected in the agile structure of its new headquarters. Spread across nearly 300 square metres in an office building, designed by Milanese-based architect Antonio Citterio and located near the Binnenalster, the workspace is characterised by inviting openness. Seamlessly connected workstations, meeting rooms and a spacious community area with an adjacent kitchen offer flexible working options. The office also boasts a central patio for relaxed gatherings or working outdoors. The overall design exudes elegant lightness. Filigree furniture in brown and beige combine with natural wood-look flooring and green plants to create a serene overall ambience. Walls, carpets and acoustic elements in the corporate colour blue add colourful splashes and a homely touch. This results in a trustworthy and appealing work environment that can readily and pragmatically adapt to changing requirements.
