More Communication and Efficiency
Medical equipment company opts for openness and light. The light concept also contributes to sustainability.


Hi-Res  |  Lo-Res

New working environments in companies are often characterised by openness. Buzz words such as flexibility, innovation and transparency determine the design concept for workplaces. The Maastricht-based firms N architecten and N interieurarchitecten have developed a corresponding interior concept for the US company Boston Scientific, which specialises in the manufacture of innovative medical equipment. The design featured Nimbus luminaires, which consistently and sustainably light up the new premises of Boston Scientific.

Multifunctional and open Meeting Zones

In 2016, the offices were redesigned to achieve lively communication between employees and more efficiency within the company. A major element of the new room layout is the opening-up of the structures. A vertical connection over several floors along the staircase has been installed in the centre of the building, thus creating a more airy and flexible space. Here multifunctional, open meeting zones encourage communication and open up visual links between the various zones and floors of the building. The planners used visually effective printed glass walls to separate the conventional desktop workplaces, which require quieter surroundings.

Attractive and impressive Workplaces

Nimbus LED luminaires featured prominently in the development of the new lighting concept. As the architects commented: "One of Nimbus's strengths is that its range includes consistent solutions for all lighting requirements." They then went on to say: "What's more, the Nimbus luminaires makes a decisive contribution to the building's sustainability. The sustainability concept earned a LEED certificate in silver."

The conference room was fitted out with a long Nimbus Modul L luminaire, whose light focus concentrates on the large table. The architects installed wide-area lighting in the open meeting and communal zones. The planners selected a mixture of wide-area and selective lighting with Nimbus luminaires from the Modul Q and Modul R ranges in the zones with desktop workplaces. An eye-catching, extravagant light sculpture hovers in the centre of the space around the open staircase. And so, also thanks to the lighting concept, the offices meet the demands of a modern working environment and provide attractive, impressive workplaces for employees and visitors.
