L’Osteria, Munich, Germany Interior: Axel Frey Innenarchitektur + Design Photos: Reiner Hoffmann

System-catering company L’Osteria owes its success to authentic, Italian cuisine enjoyed in a relaxed, inviting atmosphere. The interior designer developed a concept for the Munich-based headquarters that translates the welcoming atmosphere of the restaurants into a contemporary office environment. Combined with clear floorplans, he developed a design and color concept that ensures people can concentrate and feel inspired when they work there. On the first floor with its communal spaces, highboards and the carpet runner indicate the aisle between the workspaces, while the offices on the top floor are reached via a two-flight staircase and a hallway in the middle.

Even the reception looks more like a boutique hotel than an office. Warm, earthy colors and appealing, open-pore materials create an atmosphere that’s attractive in terms of its appearance and acoustics. Lush flower bouquets in exotic vases are a clever style contrast with the traditional office.
