The office is crated with an [open-concept layout](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salt-hq) that is sure to "[inspire creativity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sauvage-tv)" — a mode that seems to be of particular interest to the firm and rightfully so. There are a few facilities that the Amsterdam studio possesses that will motivate the imagination of the workers. For example, the office is multi-functional, boasting "an auditorium, bar, workshop facility, playground, co-working space, and even a shoot location." As a result, individuals can embrace their creative devices and engage with the environment as they see fit. Pertaining to aesthetics, the Amsterdam studio features a series of [modern furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unorthodox-designs), as well as many vegetative hits, which introduce a lively character to the space.
