Converse’s European headquarters, located in the Bikini Haus at Bahnhof Zoo in Berlin, are a combination of showroom and office space for 50 employees is based on two floors. Inspired by the look of skateboarding arenas, the surfaces of worktables and built-in furniture were finished with multiplex boards, while the kitchen areas feature sawn-wood surfaces. Used as a versatile storage solution, the tubular steel system furniture by Berlin-based company System 180 features monochrome surfaces that match the floors and walls while the neon-yellow shelving frames provide colourful accents.
