The Pink Elephant Offices:
Project report

Green offices are no longer just an innovative approach, but have become an essential paradigm shift in the design of sustainable work environments. In a context of growing awareness of the urgency of combating climate change and reducing environmental impact, companies play a key role in building the future of responsible architecture.

Today, the workplace is no longer just a functional space: it is an ecosystem that influences human behavior, health, and creativity. A sustainable office goes beyond reducing its ecological footprint; it improves the overall experience of those who inhabit it, creating environments that harmonize with nature and optimize comfort and performance.

Offices reimagined: creating regenerative workspaces regenerative

Integrating materiality, nature, and technology for holistic well-being

The materiality of sustainability and design from the circular economy perspective

Green office design begins with a conscious selection of recyclable, locally sourced, and low-environmental-impact materials that support a circular economy and reduce resource depletion and waste generation. Natural elements such as certified wood, stone, and recycled metal add tactile richness, while finishes derived from clay, lime, and bio-based coatings improve air quality and comfort, reinforcing passive sustainability.

Biophilic integration and the power of green spaces

The incorporation of green spaces—such as green walls, indoor gardens, and abundant natural light—fosters a deep connection with nature and improves well-being.

Outdoor terraces, patios, and green roofs transform offices into self-sufficient ecosystems that mitigate urban heat, improve air quality, and increase energy efficiency.

Sustainable practices in a holistic work environment

Sustainable mobility and carbon-neutral travel.
Encourage the use of public transport, specific infrastructure for bicycles with storage areas and showers, charging points for electric vehicles, and hybrid or remote working models that reduce daily commutes and associated emissions.

Flexible, multifunctional, and adaptive spaces

Replace static layouts with modular, reconfigurable spaces that encourage collaboration, provide areas for concentration, and optimize energy consumption. This adaptability enhances resilience and extends the life of design investments.

The future of green offices: technology as a catalyst for change

Technological integration is driving a sustainable revolution in office design. Intelligent energy management systems, photovoltaic and solar thermal panels, advanced water recycling, smart lighting and air conditioning, and automated waste management ensure the precise and efficient use of resources, minimizing environmental impact.

A meeting space where natural light and neutral tones create a serene and sophisticated atmosphere. The elegant furniture and warm materials promote concentration and dialogue, creating an ideal environment for teamwork.

Transparency and structure define this space, where metallic elements and color contrasts evoke a contemporary design. Warm lighting and an open layout encourage collaboration without sacrificing privacy.

The terrace is designed as a refuge within the workspace. The lightweight structure allows light and breeze to flow through the space, creating an environment where the connection with the outdoors brings balance and well-being to the daily work routine.

An environment designed for interaction, where open layout and integrated vegetation soften the architecture. The choice of materials and color palette create a welcoming atmosphere, ideal for concentration and informal meetings.

The meeting table becomes the focal point for the exchange of ideas. Suspended lighting accentuates the dynamism of the space, while the combination of neutral tones and fine materials reinforces the feeling of comfort and modernity.

The use of glass and metal structures defines the space without closing it off, ensuring visual continuity. The mix of textures brings warmth to an environment designed to balance productivity and fluid interaction.
