Hafven co-working and Maker Space, Hanover, Germany Interior: internal design team Photos: Frank Schinski Art installation: Quintessenz
Hafven was born when a co-working company and a maker space merged. Today, it’s one of Germany’s most innovative labs for new ways of conducting business and working. The first story is home to the public café and professionally fitted-out workshop space and the second and third floor accommodate offices. The building’s red shell symbolizes interior design as work in progress, which is shaped, if possible, by the users themselves and produced, trialled and adapted in the workshop. It’s always fluid and never completely finished.
The open space area is for people to collaborate and mingle. Exceptionally hard-wearing IN office chairs (design: wiege) and the legendary FS-Line (design: Klaus Franck, Werner Sauer) are parked at the desks, whose trestles and table tops were made by Hafven itself.
