Google Headquarter, Lala Library

Sometimes even accomplished professionals need a helping hand. In order to support interior designers in the hospitality and commercial sector, the German based JAB ANSTOETZ Group, one of the world’s leading specialists in contemporary furnishings, has assembled a highly efficient contract division.

The team’s tailored services take time-consuming tasks off the project developers’ hands thus enabling them to fully concentrate on the creative process. With more than 20,000 stock keeping units and a large number of products specifically designed for contract purposes, expeditious sampling is paramount. Moreover, JAB ANSTOETZ’s worldwide presence guarantees that there’s always a specialist on the spot to assist in whatever assignment the agenda may hold.

When Lee Penson planned the interior of the Google headquarters in London, he employed the textile expertise of the JAB ANSTOETZ Contract team to translate his vision of a stimulating work atmosphere into a universe of individually shaped environments, tailored to many different purposes.

Instead of sitting day in, day out in the same office, the “Googlers” can now choose the ambience that best suits their current task. A public space like the “Lala Library” for example, is the perfect place to develop ideas, while a quiet room in one of the “Secret Gardens” will help work them out. And the “Town Hall” is the ideal area to present them to a large audience. With individual colour schemes, textures and fashionings, the fabrics used underline the specific character of the rooms, thus creating a perfectly relaxed atmosphere that supports concentration and spurs creativity.
