Vender lounge and canteen, Oslo

Not just a canteen but a meeting place

The Hydro Vækerø Canteen and Lounge area is designed to complement the modern architecture with varying ceiling heights. This creates new spatial experiences, ranging from open and airy to more intimate and quiet. We all have different needs, and our social preferences may change throughout the day. The space is designed to provide a functional and inspiring environment where employees can unwind, gather, and enjoy a meal—not just during lunch, but also as a dynamic area for informal meetings and a break from the office. Featuring natural materials, soft acoustic solutions, and flexible zones, the interior strikes a balance between industrial identity and warm, inviting details. Thoughtfully designed to encourage both relaxation and social interaction, it offers a harmonious pause in a busy workday.
