Yareal’s new headquarters – a showpiece of the LIXA complex
As of mid-July, the campus-like LIXA complex houses Yareal’s new headquarters
This flagship project is the company’s largest yet, offering 75,000 sq. m. of office space upon completion. Yareal’s new headquarters fully capitalize on the advantages that LIXA has to offer – from an excellent location that is within walking distance of the Rondo Daszyńskiego metro station, to various environmentally-friendly solutions, green terraces and communal courtyards. Yareal’s new 1,000 sq. m. office will provide employees and business partners with a functional, ergonomic and safe environment for both work and relaxation.
Yareal’s headquarters cover the entire fourth floor of building B. Open office spaces face two inner green gardens, making the investment unique among the surrounding high-rise office buildings. Its modern interiors have been arranged according to the latest trends in office design and are based on an in-depth analysis of the company’s internal daily processes, the specificity of its teams, and as well the needs of its employees.
“We’re leaving behind the hustle and bustle of the inner city and moving into the LIXA complex. Yareal’s new headquarters will ensure excellent working conditions by offering bright, modern and functional office space that meets today’s top standards. This change was also motivated by the ongoing pandemic; everybody now appreciates having access to open green areas or the opportunity to take a moment to relax and have a peaceful lunch on a sunny terrace. We are very proud of the fact that the office complex that we are moving into is our flagship investment” – said Eric Dapoigny, President of Yareal Polska.
The new headquarters, located at the junction of Kasprzaka and Karolkowa Streets, have been designed in an open and flexible style to promote effective cooperation between Yareal’s teams and partners working in LIXA. The office’s interiors have been functionally divided in such a way as to ensure optimal working conditions, providing access to open office areas as well as several isolated rooms for individual work. Teams can also brainstorm and hold informal meetings in several semi-open spaces next to the reception area and lobby, which in turn have been carefully furnished with potted plants to create a welcoming waiting area.
The LIXA complex and its workspace arrangements take into account the needs of experts from various fields. Depending on the work they do, employees will occupy smaller or larger spaces that will allow them to complete their daily tasks in a friendly environment, providing all the necessary equipment and room. The office has also been equipped with large drafting tables so that project teams and architects can simultaneously work together e.g. on blueprints of new investments.
The informal heart of Yareal’s new headquarters is a modern kitchen and cafeteria that opens onto a large outdoor terrace. Furnished with potted plants, the terrace is open to all employees as either an extension of the eatery, an informal workspace, or simply a place for relaxation. Moreover, numerous conference rooms of various sizes are located throughout the entire floor, allowing for the efficient organization of internal meetings or conferences with guests. This flexible space can be further adapted, as some meeting rooms can be joined together should such a need arise.
The possibility of tailoring office space to individual tenants’ needs is one of key features of the LIXA complex. Efficient design with minimal technical and traffic space, optimal floor layout, a glass façade with openable windows, green gardens and cycling infrastructure are only some of the top-quality advantages provided to LIXA’s tenants.
Following the completion of the first two buildings offering a total area of 28,000 sq. m., LIXA will be expanded next year to include another office building with an area of 20,000 sq. m. This flagship investment will ultimately offer a total of 75,000 sq. m. of modern office space, as well as over half a hectare of green areas in the form of inner gardens and terraces. The third stage of the campus-like investment envisages a 150-meter-long walkway created in the heart of the complex, connecting existing buildings with those yet to be erected. The project’s final two buildings, which are to be constructed in the coming years, will jointly offer 27,000 sq. m. of office space. Their architectural style will slightly differ from the previous buildings, but they will include curved elements distinct for the entire complex. Numerous service points and restaurants will be situated along the central green walkway linking Kasprzaka and Giełdowa Streets, which will also be accessible from a newly-built 1,000 sq. m. public square that will be located at the junction with Dorożkarska Street.
LIXA’s architectural plan features numerous eco-friendly solutions which have ensured an “Excellent” rating on its BREEAM sustainable building certificate.
The LIXA complex was designed by the HRA studio, its general contractor is PORR, and BIT CREATIVE designed the interiors of Yareal’s new office space.
