Hydro Extrusion – Office with a Minimalist Design

2025.04.29.

In our previous posts, we introduced you to our Hydro aluminium foundry project and the challenges of the designing process. This time we would like to present something more on the astetic side of the project, the interior design of the office building.

Hydro Extrusion Hungary Kft. has a Norwegian parent company, so it was an important aspect of the interior design to harmoniously present the minimalist style and the company’s branding colours in the interior spaces.

Entering the office building, visitors are greeted by a multi-level space, made even more impressive by the large glass façade. The levels are connected by a floating staircase with a special support structure. The lobby walls and stairs are also covered with the distinctive blue branding colour, while it also features a warmer touch of the bauxite red furnitures. Directly accessible from the lobby there is an exhibition area where the different aluminium products will be displayed in the future, with a unique aluminium cladding on the wall.

It is in the open office spaces and meeting rooms that the lightness of interior design is truly felt, with curved glass walls designed to separate the meeting rooms, and the warmth of the wooden furniture alternating with the coolness of the blue wall covers and glass surfaces in the various spaces.

Model Checking Is Not About Finding Errors 

In model-based design, a BIM model is no longer just a 3D representation. A well-structured model contains geometry, information, and discipline-specific relationships in a single source of truth. It drives drawings, quantity take-offs, schedules, equipment lists, technical data deliverables, and serves as the common platform for multidisciplinary coordination.

The Art of Accountability at IN-EX: Transforming Control into Motivation 

For us, accountability is not a tool of fear, but one of professional security. When tasks are clear (SMART) and feedback is fact-based and constructive (AID), team members know exactly where they stand, where they excel, and where they still need to grow. This is how accountability becomes an internal, supportive driving force.
