Working with designers IDFL, leading Austrian newspaper Wirtschafts Blatt set out to create a workspace that embodied their brand throughout its architecture, furniture design, color palette and interior graphics. The key brief was to 'Change to a new spirit", requiring dynamic use of space and introduction of fresh ambiance for a motivational and quality environment in which to collate the latest economic, finance and financial market news for daily issue, and digital application, by the Vienna based news team.

Smaller offices and meeting rooms are screened off with graphical glass walls, which further establish the newspapers identity as well as subtly define spaces; open space connects the units to semi-secluded spots and pods used for brainstorming sessions and internal meetings, which encourages information sharing and workforce interaction.
