办公室梦想之旅–Codelab x umlaut x MIXD

Codelab和Umlaut位于波兰什切青的办公室主要服务于汽车行业的客户。他们所开创的软件能让汽车性能得以完美呈现，让你享受最极致的驾驶体验：速度、自由、探索未来新境界。因此当MIXD设计团队在打造这处办公室时，其宗旨就是创建一个如同汽车之旅那般快乐舒畅体验的工作场所。

项目所在的Posejdon building（海神大楼）的地理位置暗示了本案的旅游设计主题，这里是什切青重要的港口大门，同时也是你出发进入世界的门户和纽带！然而，对我们来说最重要的是一起踏上这段旅程。决定性的因素是我们每个人的参与——两家公司的所有员工都在创建一个新领域，他们做什么，他们需求什么——唤起Jakub Borowczyk（umlaut公司总经理）打造这个项目的初心。

与MIXD所做的其他办公项目一样，设计开始于一系列文化探讨。“这个由我们工作室自主开发的调研工具，通过与用户的深度合作，收集关于他们的需求、期望和组织工作方式的大量有价值的信息。我们讨论非常具体的问题，如他们以前使用办公设备的经验或日常的实际需求：桌子的大小、显示器的数量或扶手椅的类型等等。还讨论他们的工作日是什么样子，他们多久开一次会，怎样的小组形式，是固定的工作任务还是需及时完成的项目。研讨会的轻松氛围让每个参与者都能各抒胸臆，分享他们重要的见解（困扰他们的是什么，他们不想要什么），以及大胆而富有创造性的想法（个人解决方案、装饰、娱乐休闲的想法）。MIXD首席执行官兼创意总监Piotr Kalinowski说：“这实际上是一项非常有意义的研究，我们可以从中获得大量数据，以满足未来用户的期望。”。

再踏征途

通过研讨会，大家清楚地看到Codelab和umlaut的工作与科技之间的密切关联。尽管与舒适的座椅或现代轮胎相比，软件并不是一件有形的东西，但它也让驾驶现代汽车变得和汽车工业的黄金时代（20世纪50年代和60年代）一样愉快。因此就有了以旅行为主旋律的办公设计概念，从而有了所有与此相关的愉快联想：加油站、路边酒吧、海滩、露营和旅游路线。接待区一辆满载行李箱的菲亚特Fiat500老爷车点明了设计主题。为了将这辆车放进四楼办公室，还特地使用了建筑起重机！这辆标志性的汽车是数以千万计的现代汽车的鼻祖，而如今这些汽车使用的都是Codelab编写的软件！

加油补给和冲浪

办公室之旅的下一站是加油站。这处公共空间的一部分用于工作充电——边喝咖啡边交流。旁边是以美国路边汽车酒吧为灵感设计的自助餐厅，你甚至不必停下来就能点东西吃。柔和的色彩、流线型设计、黑白棋盘格地面、霓虹灯标识和彩绘招牌，以及经典的吧椅，让这里呈现出上世纪50年代经典的美学氛围。公共空间的最后一部分就是海滩。每天在电脑前一坐就是很久的程序员，他们需要在城市外或海滩边去释放工作压力、重理思绪。于是就有了沙滩、芦苇遮阳伞、来自品牌Malafor和Puff-Buff的充气家具和灯具所塑造的阳光沙滩。“我们不仅重视共同参与项目的工作时刻，也同样重视同事间的休闲交流，这就是为什么我们会花这么大的精力去创建一个工作之余的休闲空间的目的。”

房子附近

位于中心区域的办公区可容纳双方300名员工在此安静的工作。这里分为三个不同的区域：一个舒适且私密的居家办公氛围的工作区，一个优雅的汽车内饰般的工作区，以及一个极简主义的Loft办公区。“我们喜欢说我们的生意是一个‘关于人的生意’。人际关系、知识交流、经验交流、头脑风暴——这些都是我们的燃料。经过两年的筹备，我们的团队与MIXD设计团队共同开发了一个空间，一个洋溢着专注工作文化的舒适空间，同时又能促进会议、交流、并共度美好生活时光。来我们这里的客户也能从商业角度欣赏和感知这种合作文化。在这里我们总有新的惊喜和发现，这太不可思议！对于我们这种创新性的工作来说，这一点意义非凡！” Codelab的总经理Radoslaw Borek强调说。

极客们的车库

在这间3000平方米的办公室里，汽车和科技的元素不断出现：从玩具形式到Takie Pany（塔基·帕尼）的主题墙画，或带有城市主题的儿童地毯，每个人都在那玩弄汽车，但也有一些类似于极客潜入程序员的主题，如“鸭子”用于测试代码（这也是CI Codelab的一个非官方元素）、太空邀请者、老式老虎机、像素化图形、黑胶唱片和音乐海报。整个空间设计是折衷且多样性的，前面提到的每个公共区域和工作区都各不相同，无论是色彩还是选用的材料都构建出不同的氛围。在设施方面，波兰品牌的家具占据主导地位，如Balma、Noti、Fameg、Paged等品牌，但也有许多定制元素和原创解决方案，比如加油站形式的饮用水装置设计；有着汽车行业属性质感的金属饰面围裹的入口接待台；而汽修站常见的穿孔形式也出现于工作区内。

二维性

以汽车之旅为主题设计的Codelab和Umlaut办公室，不止是一次有趣的空间之旅，还是一次穿越时空的时间之旅。早在1950年代和1960年代的美国，当时汽车文化和与之相关的生活方式在那里得到蓬勃发展，同时也影响到了什切青，Posejdon大楼在二战前建成，作为购物和娱乐设施和乌法宫电影院（UFA Palast cinema）的所在地，如今它已成为现代综合办公大楼的一部分。“我们设法创造了一个多层次的空间来表达旅行和我们从中获得的乐趣：无论是新地方还是老地方，我们总是会遇到汉堡和薯条，以及美丽的风景和我们要去的地方。我们成功地表达了Codelab和Umlaut员工对他们所创造的软件解决方案的自豪感，而我们——通常甚至都没有意识到——在每天开车时都会用到这些解决方案。” Piotr Kalinowski总结说。

The office dream trip – Codelab x umlaut x MIXD

The Codelab and umlaut companies, in their Szczecin office, work primarily with clients from the automotive industry. The software they create makes the automotive technology work perfectly, allowing you to enjoy the best while driving: speed, a sense of freedom and readiness to explore new places. While designing their office, MIXD made sure that the experience of the work space is as pleasant as a journey in a comfortable car.

"The very location of the Posejdon building suggested the use of the travel theme in the project - after all, the Port Gate is the heart of Szczecin, and at the same time the place from which you set off into the world! What was most important for us, however, was to set out on this journey together. The decisive factor was the involvement of ourselves - all employees of both companies in building a new place, what they do and what their needs are - recalls the beginnings of the project Jakub Borowczyk, managing director of umlaut.

The starting point for the design work was - as in the case of other MIXD office projects - the Culture Club? workshops. “This proprietary tool, developed by our studio, allows, by working with future office users, to collect a lot of valuable information about their needs, expectations, and ways of organizing work. We talk about very specific issues, such as their previous experience with office equipment or everyday, practical needs: the size of the desks, the number of monitors or the type of armchairs. We discuss what their working day looks like, how often they have meetings, in what groups, whether they work on fixed tasks or on projects closed in time. The relaxed atmosphere during the workshops makes the participants feel good and they get very involved in the process: they openly share with us both critical insights (what bothers them, what they do not want) and ideas that are bold and very creative (individual solutions, decorations, ideas for relaxation). It is actually a type of research from which we obtain a lot of data, necessary for our project to meet the expectations of future users." - says Piotr Kalinowski, CEO and creative director of MIXD.

On the roadagain

It was during the workshops that it became clear how closely the work of Codelab and umlaut is related to technology. And although the software is a much less tangible thing than comfortable seats or modern tires, they also make driving a modern car as pleasant as in the golden age of the automotive industry - the 1950s and 1960s. This meant that the leitmotif of the office in Poseidon was travel and everything that we associate with it: gas stations, roadside bars, beaches, camping and tourist routes. Already at the reception, we are greeted by ready to go into the unknown Fiat 500 retro, with a trunk loaded with suitcases. This car, the delivery of which to the fourth floor of Poseidon required the use of a construction crane (!) and it was already at the shell stage of open construction, it was not accidentally delivered there. The iconic car is the ancestor of tens of millions of modern cars which today use software written in Codelab.

We refuel and surf

The next stage of an office trip is the Gas Station. One of the parts of the common area is where the battery is charged for work - while talking with a cup of coffee in hand. Right next to it, we have the Cafeteria, inspired by American roadside drive-in bars, where you don't even have to stop to order something to eat. The aesthetics of the 50`s reign here - pastel colors, stream-line, black and white chessboard floor, neon signs and painted signboards, characteristic bar stools. Finally, the last part of the common area is the Beach. Developers are the big part of the digital nomad community. Today, after many hours in front of the monitor, they are looking for a rest and chillout outside the city, at the seaside ... or even on the city beach surrounded by the Craneosaurs. These are the places where the beach coworking zone appeals: with a beach basket, a reed umbrella, "changing rooms" for desks, inflatable furniture and lamps from Malafor and Puff-Buff. "We value the time spent together not only in engaging projects, but also during conversations, which is why we devoted the same attention to creating a space that encourages joint meetings after work."

Near the house

Centrally located common spaces allow both to integrate a crew of almost 300 and to keep work areas calm. We also have three different zones here: a cozy, intimate Homeoffice, elegant Car Interior and a raw, minimalist, definitely the most “office” Loft. “We like to say that our business is "people business". Human and human relations, exchange of knowledge, experiences, brainstorming - this is our fuel. During 2 years of preparations, our team, together with MIXD, has developed a space where, nomen omen, the comfort needed to concentrate permeates, with a space conducive to meetings, talks and spending time together. Our clients, who visit us, also appreciate such a culture of (cooperation) work from a business perspective. We are fascinated by the fact that we are constantly discovering new, our own favorite places in this office. This is important in such creative work as ours - emphasizes Rados?aw Borek, Managing Director of Codelab.

Geek`s garage

In the area of the 3,000 m2 office, cars and technology are constantly appearing - in the form of toys, motifs from Takie Pany murals, or a children's carpet with a city motif, where everyone played with cars, but there are also motifs close to geeky sneaks to programmers - "ducks" used to test codes (which are also an unofficial element of CI Codelab), Space Inviders, old school slot machines, pixelated graphics, vinyls and music posters. The space is eclectic and diverse, each of the aforementioned common areas and work zones is different, both in terms of colors and the materials used. In terms of equipment, furniture of Polish brands, such as Balma, Noti, Fameg, Paged, dominates, but there are also many custom-made elements and original solutions, such as a fuel dispenser serving drinking water. A reference to automotive climates is also sheet metal - pressed, as on the reception casing, or perforated as in a car service - in work zones.

Twodimensions

A journey in the Codelab and umlaut office is not only a journey in space, but also a journey in time, to the 1950s and 1960s in the USA, when car culture and the lifestyle associated with it flourished there, but also to the years of the PRL in Szczecin - to the iconic Szczecin bar Pasztecik and Kameralna café, to the past of Posejdon, which was built before World War II as a shopping and entertainment facility and the seat of the UFA Palast cinema, then transformed into PDT Posejdon, and today it has become part of a modern office complex. “We managed to create a space that speaks in many layers about traveling and the fun we get from it: new places and old ones, where we always come across a burger and fries, about beautiful views and places we go to. We managed to express the pride of Codelab and Umlaut employees of the software solutions they create, and which we - often without even realizing - use when driving our car every day ”- summarizes Piotr Kalinowski.
