BlackRock sought to create an inspirational space, a ‘’Hub’’ that would support and challenge their staff to be creative, innovative and reach their full potential. Perkins+Will as the Lead designers aspired to merge BlackRock’s Core Principles with Budapest’s diverse spatial atmosphere in an effortless way. What emerged was a space that celebrates the notion of people coming together, connecting, co-creating and interacting into an innovative and healthy environment. Inspiration for the design was drawn from the cultural context of the project’s location. Rubik and his famous cube, the Ruin Bars, Sziget festival, and the Logiface puzzles became a great source of architectural inspiration. The use of materials such as timber, metal, and exposed concrete creates a feeling of openness while maintaining a fresh, welcoming, and familiar atmosphere, pops of warm colour have a visual impact and enhance mental stimulation.
