GenePlanet is a research and development company, an innovative, digital business focusing on preventative healthcare. In 2019, CEO Marko Bitenc decided it was time to create a new HQ for the company. He hired Kragelj Architects to design the office interiors. The design process has been about innovation, personalization, and using data intelligently to create a better workplace. At the core of Kragelj’s process is understanding the relationship between workplace strategy and business success. GenePlanet’s new home speaks volumes about the company. When you look around, you immediately get a sense of the energy of the business and how it operates. It’s about connecting people with a purpose. In a well-designed workplace, there are abundant opportunities for ad hoc, impromptu interactions. Bumping into colleagues unplanned is how lots of game-changing innovations start. Kragelj created an environment where people feel motivated to live up to high standards and responsible behavior comes naturally to them.
