From a place of work to a place of well-being: At Disy, office design brings corporate culture to life

Especially in view of the ongoing home-office boom, many entrepreneurs are asking themselves whether an investment in a physical office is still worthwhile, and some even whether an office is still in keeping with the times? In view of such considerations, the decision of Karlsruhe-based IT service provider Disy seems downright contradictory: In the middle of the pandemic, the management rented additional space and hired us to design, build and furnish a custom office. Nevertheless, now everyone is in agreement – the investment has definitely proved worthwhile!

Growing demands, including on the office

With advancing globalisation and digitalisation, the world of work is becoming increasingly complex. Across industries, companies are feeling the brunt of growing innovation and competitive pressures, driven by an escalating shortage of resources, both raw materials and personnel. The problem is creativity is difficult to plan. Companies like Disy, however, can support their employees with creative processes by creating the right environment. This applies both to digital and physical spaces. Thus, the office, its design, and its equipment indirectly become a competitive factor.

From corporate culture to spatial concept

The office is becoming a competitive factor not only with regard to the efficiency and creativity of employees. Even in the “war for talent,” a modern office with high-quality furnishings can make all the difference. The office is becoming the place in which a company can make its corporate growth or culture tangible. Particularly for employees who regularly switch between the home office and face-to-face work, or for international colleagues who are rarely able to be on-site, the office serves as an identity-forming element and offers them a “home”.

Where appreciation becomes visible

In addition to inspiration, corporate values and growth, individually designed offices also show their users one thing above all: that they are valued. If the feel-good factor is also right, the headquarters can also become the „headquarters“ for all employees. As a service provider in the highly specialised IT environment, Disy places the highest demands on its employees. The investment in a new office location was therefore also an investment in its own future. This is because the management is convinced that sustained top performance is only possible in an environment in which employees feel comfortable.
