In an increasingly fluid work environment, break areas are also evolving: no longer just transitional spaces, but places designed to rejuvenate body and mind, foster interpersonal relationships, and reflect company culture. Viganò & C., in collaboration with designers and clients, interprets this transformation by offering furnishings that combine ergonomics, functionality, and design. Comfortable seating, modular units, and versatile solutions turn break time into a pleasant experience, enhancing both the value of the pause and the sense of belonging to the professional setting.
In recent projects, such as the renovation of CNP Vita’s Milan headquarters, the relaxation area has become a key hub for social interaction: sofas like Cubino, Greg, and George, along with dynamic poufs like Tommy, have shaped a new concept of the break, more intimate, more shared, more human.
The inclusion of flexible and customizable elements has made it possible to create spaces that cater to different needs: those seeking a moment of individual relaxation, those engaging in informal conversations, and those experiencing the break as an opportunity for creative exchange.
The break area is no longer a marginal moment, but an identity-defining junction where belonging is strengthened, dialogue is encouraged, and a new quality of work life is cultivated. In this context, Viganò & C. stands out as a thoughtful partner in shaping spaces that enhance everyday comfort, promote physical and mental well-being, and support an evolved vision of the office, one increasingly centered on listening to people.
