GL Events is a company based in France that recently hired the architecture firm Studio Odile Decq to complete its new headquarters. The design reflects the branding colors of the company, and has an open plan so that workers can relate to one another easily.
The office is located right next to a river, and with the floor to ceiling glass walls it's easy for workers to enjoy the views. Overall the look of the building is very industrial, with exposed beams throughout and polished concrete flooring. For anyone stopping by, the first impression one would most likely get is that of a hip young company. The main focus when entering is a central atrium area, where people can interact and work with one another.
