For years, the offices of EBN&Co. have been situated in the heart of Tel Aviv. Unlike many organizations that opt for relocation when seeking a "facelift," this company made a choice to remain in their current premises and embark on a renewal project. Spread across five floors, encompassing 6,500 sqm, the company's decision to stay put and revitalize their existing space has proven to be a testament to their commitment to their heritage and vision.
We focused on planning an entire floor out of the five, which is used for meetings and public activities, and includes meeting rooms, lounges for daily business meetings and a large central cafeteria. This is the place where everyone comes at lunchtime - a fun space where internal social or external events take place.
One of the goals of the renovation was to define the firm's DNA in a timeless space that would echo the company's values. There are many tangent lines between offices in this field and architectural offices - fields that belong to the old world and by their nature operate according to systems of laws. In this space, we have applied architectural laws of rhythm and harmony - for example, the wooden screens in front of the meeting rooms serve as a uniform and simple system that connects the entire space and creates a pleasant rhythm in the space. The wooden screens allow transparency, and transmission of light, while maintaining privacy in the meeting rooms and at the same time allowing a view towards the urban landscape and the sea.
Uniform flooring ties together the public areas, while a clean white ceiling enhances the minimalist aesthetic. In the pursuit of timelessness, the design prioritized the use of natural materials, such as stone, metal, terrazzo, and wood, while shying away from artificial elements.
From the perimeter of the floor, occupants can admire the iconic landmarks of Tel Aviv. As part of the branding process, each room was given a name that corresponds to the site it overlooks, such as Rabin Square, the Museum, the Kirya, Namir Rd., Yarkon, etc. This thoughtful approach enhances the connection between the office and its surroundings, fostering an inspiring work environment. Through this meticulous transformation, the company has achieved more than a mere office renovation. They have crafted a space that transcends trends, reflecting their core identity and values while providing a timeless backdrop for their endeavours.
