The canteen is designed with variation in furniture, materials, surfaces, and textures, which makes the canteen welcoming, useful and at the same time easy to maintain.

Workplace Design

Process Consultancy & User Involvement

Facilitation of the process regarding the remodelling of the canteen, including proposals and choice of layout and future use of the canteen. Preparation of budget and timetable for the remodelling project.
