LP CoWorking
Commissioned by a workspace developer and operator, we have been tasked with conducting a preliminary study and sketch design to assess the feasibility of converting this historic industrial space into a modern coworking office. With a total space of 1700 sqm, the client's vision included an entrance lobby, an open-space hot desk area for 85 workstations, concentration booths, a pantry, a 30-person canteen, 7 meeting rooms, 1 boardroom, 7 rentable offices, and an amenity area featuring a gym and classroom space.
Our design process began by embracing the client's aspirations, paving the way for an innovative solution that redefines the way individuals experience work. Our proposal ensures a flexible and dynamic workspace that caters to diverse workstyles, offering private offices, meeting rooms, or dedicated desks for teams of all sizes.
The existing concrete structure, characterized by distinctive octagonal columns, serves as the backbone of our design. We seamlessly integrated these elements into a modern, vibrant workspace that pays homage to the industrial charm of its historic roots, flooded with character and natural light.
The carefully chosen materials—polished concrete, slatted oak, premium fabrics, and expanded metal meshes—harmonize effortlessly with the building's historical features, creating a cohesive and visually stunning environment.
We believe in designing spaces that not only meet the functional needs of our clients but also elevate the overall experience. The transformation of "Las Palmas" into a dynamic coworking space reflects our dedication to combining history with contemporary innovation.
A workspace that celebrates individuality and empowers teams to work in ways they never imagined.

Concept design
Our proposal for the refurbishment and renovation of the second floor of the historic "Las Palmas" building, stands as a testament to our commitment to preserving architectural heritage while redefining its purpose. Originally constructed in 1953 as a workshop building for the Holland-America line, "Las Palmas" holds a unique place in Dutch architectural history.
