Our Visit to the Most Environmentally Friendly Office in Nordics

This business center is located in Malmo, Sweden. What make Hubhult such a great and interesting place to visit? It is the most environmentally friendly office building in Scandinavia. And I got a great opportunity to visit this business center with one of my classes. We learned about how IKEA finds a great business opportunity within circular economy, and had a great tour of the building after which we all agreed that working there would be such a pleasurable experience.

Not the single one out of the 1300 workers in this business center has his/ her own working table. Personally, this working space reminded me of a very well equipped modern library. It is also organized to be an environment that is able to to enhance the productivity and exchange of ideas between workers. Corners of each floor are used as “high focus” areas, designed in a way that there is a lot of natural light available, desks are in the shape of cubicles, and talking in there is not desirable -> which is one of the only places in the building where talking

Hubhult seeks to embrace the diversity and interaction in order to give employees an environment where they can more easily share the knowledge and ideas. Thus, the main stairs are positioned in the center of the building to connect all the floors and areas in the most convenient way.
