Developed for curious minds, created for collaboration and designed as a second home. GoCo House is ready to open!

As the building is being filled with furnitures and textiles, the final details are carefully being placed to make the vision fall into place. A workplace designed to inspire creativity and innovation as much as a place carefully designed to invite interaction and collaboration.

- A welcoming office should feel a bit like a second home. This is where people spend most of their waking hours. At GoCo House we have created different kind of spaces so everyone can find a place matching to their present mood and needs. There is room for spontaneous meetings, longer meetings and relaxing coffee breaks. Creating areas that promote conversations as well as space for peace and quiet, have been important elements in the interior design, says Lisa Robertz.

On the ground floor, we find the main entrance with large social areas made for socializing and meetings. Stone, leather and wood are consistent material choices that, together with lots of textiles, creates a warm and welcoming environment. The floors are polished concrete and a suspended ceiling in wood wool contributes to a comfortable sound environment.

- The area is infused with health in several ways. Embracing well-being from a coworker’s perspective is one of them. Health is about feeling good at work and this has been my greatest ambition - to create environments where people enjoy working and collaborating. This in turn will leverage new innovative ideas, Lisa continues.

In addition to beautiful and creative interior design GoCo House offers comprehensive services to its tenants: a daily staffed reception, a lunchroom, orangery, conference rooms, a café and a restaurant with chambre separée. The public areas and office environments are, through its design, shaped with flexibility in mind.

- We are all different and perceive environments in various ways. Some prefer an armchair, or to take a seat at a bar stool, instead of working in front of the traditional desk. Regardless of what you prefer, GoCo House is designed based on flexibility. Every room is designed to inspire innovative thinking and thoroughly decorated to feel just as welcomed as stepping over the threshold to a vibrant and likable home, Lisa Robertz ends.

GoCo House crowns the city district as the signature building. Capturing the essence of the innovative culture within the new life science district needed to be embodied in the interior design. The atmosphere nurtures collaboration and invites to spontaneous meetings. Therefore, choosing the best suited interior designer for the mission was of great importance.

- We chose Lisa for this assignment as we have a history working together in previous projects. She has a unique feel for design and an ability to create genuine environment beyond the traditional office space, says Sofia Ekberg, project manager at GoCo Health Innovation City.
