We have created a<br />
way to let all of our<br />
employees relocate<br />
their workstations<br />
to different places<br />
as needed, flexibly<br />
and in a way<br />
that suits them.<br />

More than a canteen.<br />
Back in the headquarters, you quickly come across<br />
the next highlight. The generously sized canteen is<br />
not only a great place to spend a lunch break, but the<br />
lounge-esque, cosy islands along its walls also offer<br />
a place for both meetings and breaks. The flexible<br />
furnishings with stacking tables and chairs allow the<br />
room to be used for events and seminars.<br />

Focusing on communication.<br />
Both the headquarters in Neukirchen<br />
and the <strong>office</strong> in Linz now<br />
boast a streamlined, dignified aesthetic.<br />
Dark and muted colours such<br />
as black and grey are interspersed with<br />
wooden elements and eye-catching<br />
features in the company’s<br />
characteristic shade of green. The<br />
construction and architecture of the<br />
headquarters were managed by the<br />
company Peneder. The furniture for<br />
both sites was supplied by Wiesner-<br />
Hager.<br />
One particular feature of the <strong>office</strong> landscapes is<br />
their focus on communication areas. Spread across<br />
the Neukirchen site’s 1,500 m² floorplan, meeting<br />
islands, conference rooms and intermediate zones<br />
are all seamlessly integrated into the <strong>office</strong> design.<br />
The large meeting room with modern multimedia<br />
integrations is the <strong>office</strong>’s centrepiece. At the Linz<br />
site, too, there is an equally well-equipped larger<br />
meeting room with a screen for (hybrid) conferences<br />
and integrating digital content. A working café<br />
offers a place to chat casually around a large standing<br />
table, or hold informal team meetings. The colourful<br />
intermediate zones and the <strong>office</strong>’s integrated phone<br />
boxes create a counterpoint to the otherwise very<br />
clean architecture.<br />

Eye-catching <strong>office</strong>.<br />
The first thing you notice about the Techbase site<br />
are the <strong>office</strong> rooms. Here, the unusual design of the<br />
furniloop desk provides a real breath of fresh air. The<br />
sound-insulating screens around the desks not only<br />
provide privacy, but also help to create a pleasant<br />
acoustic environment. There is a hot desk concept in<br />
place. “In our new <strong>office</strong> building in Linz, we have<br />
created a way to let all of our employees relocate<br />
their workstations to different places as needed,<br />
flexibly and in a way that suits them. AGILOX<br />
believes in the value of a shared corporate culture – a<br />
culture that plays a distinctive role in the innovation<br />
and creativity we bring to our work as a technology<br />
leader in Upper Austria”, says Josef Baumann-Rott,<br />
Chief Operating Officer and co-founder of AGI-<br />
LOX.<br />
Conclusion:<br />
While the two AGILOX sites feature a homogenous<br />
design, they each also have their own unique features<br />
that are perfectly tailored to the respective requirements<br />
of the spaces.<br />
