The main task was to show the elements characteristic of TechnipFMC’s activities. It is technically and rough here. Such space was required by the client who wanted to create a place that not only tells a lot about the company itself but also favours the strict minds of the engineers working here.
Recreating the climate of TechnipFMC floating equipment. We have here uncovered installations and cabling, industrial lamps, trusses, containers, yellow technical barriers and recycled container doors.
The design office refers to what TechnipFMC does, i.e. designing machinery for oil and gas extraction from the seabed. We have designated four levels.
The first floor is the underwater space. The second is the water level. The third and fourth floors are decks of watercraft used in marine operations.
An interesting area of the office is the void zone. It is a free space integrating floors 2, 3 and 4 and connected by glazing with floor 1. This original TDG idea allows you to look from the first floor to the other levels of the office, almost as we can observe the world while underwater.
It is also here that a gold installation is made of several thousand small glass balls suspended on nearly 1000 pieces of lines was installed. It represents the so-called Subsea Tree, the company’s flag product, which is deposited on the seabed, and used to control the extraction of raw material.
The void zone is also a symbolic integration of all teams working on each floor, where open spaces, collabs and rooms are located. In the previous location, this connection was impossible, so the client was very anxious to ensure that all employees in the new office had a sense of consolidation.
