Three years ago, I posted about
der Spiegel Kanteen in Germany. Recently they moved to a new building and have a brand new kanteen designed by
Ippolito Fleitz Group Identity Architects. This lunchroom is more restrained than the last but still has tons of character.
Most of the action is on the ceiling where they managed to hide all the ugly bits and make it worth looking up. I love the last three photos.
Working here would be like being in lunch heaven. The little kitchenette at the place I currently work is small enough to touch both walls at once. Someone once walked in on me while I was holding one cup under the espresso machine making coffee and and filling another cup with water from the water dispenser. I was fairly new at the time so I was a bit embarrassed - and even more when my, "we must never speak of this again", warning went unheeded. I think I have a multitasking problem, it's why I started watching foreign shows. If I don't know the language, I can't do anything else.
