DESIGN NAME: space by baumgartner
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Corporate Offices
INSPIRATION: These spaces were designed with waste components from the aeronautical industry, airplane wheels, seats, parts of the carcasses of some planes, etc.
The idea was to make an extremely dynamic space that would promote communication and innovation.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project unfolds on two floors with a total de 6,000 m2. A common denominator of the design was the creation of informal meeting areas, spaces designed especially to hold meetings in a casual and more dynamic way.
Volaris’s employees do not have assigned spaces. Everyone can work in the area of the office that works best for them. This is achieved through a wireless network that manages to permanently connect everyone.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Without a doubt, Volaris is an example that big budgets are not necessary to achieve creative solutions that improve an organization’s performance.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project is located in Santa Fe, Mexico City.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The ceilings were decorated with one of the largest-scale plane collections in Latin America, and this gave this unique space a special touch.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 6,000 m2

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: A space that, through the architecture and design, would manifest the brand’s values and redefine the Volaris work experience and that had to be an extension of the Volaris flying experience.
CHALLENGE: The project represented a very complicated challenge in accordance with Volaris’s philosophy. The project had to be a high-performance but low cost office.
