The Coop Bank head office spans ten floors within the iconic Skyon building, a modern architectural landmark in the city’s high-rise quarter. Designed to offer an inspiring and functional work environment, this space combines practicality with aesthetic refinement, embodying Coop Bank’s values of openness, professionalism, and environmental consciousness.
The ground floor houses a customer service area that is conveniently accessible from the street, welcoming clients into an inviting and modern banking environment. This thoughtfully planned area ensures easy accessibility and comfort, creating a seamless first interaction for Coop Bank’s clients. On the first floor, meeting rooms cater to both client consultations and internal staff meetings, with spaces designed for privacy, collaboration, and functionality.
Every detail of the interior architecture is carefully curated to create a working environment that is both technically advanced and visually appealing. The spaces are characterized by a dignified yet friendly ambiance, balancing professional elegance with a welcoming atmosphere. Special attention has been given to linking the interior design with Skyon’s unique facade structure, achieving a harmonious blend between the building’s exterior and its inner spaces.
One of the architectural highlights of the Skyon building is its distinctive triangular windows of various sizes, forming a striking facade that extends along each wall. This presented a unique challenge: retaining the visual integrity of this feature across smaller, partitioned office spaces. The solution involved creating transparent office walls using glass, covered with custom-designed graduated matt film, ensuring privacy without compromising transparency. This innovation allows the triangular window design to remain visible and cohesive, even within divided spaces. Special ceiling elements inspired by the building’s facade geometry provide an acoustic solution that enhances comfort across all office areas. These unique ceiling structures not only absorb sound but also contribute to the space’s modern aesthetic, aligning perfectly with Skyon’s architectural theme.
Each floor of the Coop Bank head office offers a unique experience while maintaining a unified design concept. Drawing inspiration from Estonia’s natural landscapes, a distinct color palette represents a different element of the Estonian environment on each floor, with themes such as forest, juniper grove, bog, reed-bed, and coastal area. Thoughtfully curated prints of native animals, birds, insects, amphibians, and plants in elegant black frames adorn the walls, inviting employees and visitors alike to reflect on Estonia’s rich natural beauty.
