Private software company hired architecture firm ZIKZAK to design their new office in Kyiv, Ukraine.

“The new office was created for a company that works rhythmically, quickly, and emotionally. They launch products that surprise, touch hearts, and stay in people’s minds. In this space, ideas aren’t just born—there are constant internal competitions: for attention, effect, and results. That’s why ZIKZAK Architects designed it as a functional field for creative adrenaline, as a manifestation of the brand’s energy, where drive becomes part of everyday work.

The design here conveys company values through architectural decisions, translating dynamics, freedom of movement, and the spirit of competition. After all, the team consists of creatives working at high speed, for whom work is a kind of sport: a battle of ideas, reflex training, explosive finishes. The interior is built around the metaphor of a sports arena. It has rhythm, tension, a gaming component, space for maneuvers and focus.

This office is about energy, not chaos. There’s no room for random decisions: every detail is thoughtful, every interior element works to tell the brand’s story—one that isn’t afraid of experiments and seeks unconventional ways of self-expression.

From the reception area, visitors are immersed in an atmosphere of unexpected contrasts. Modern brutal architecture is ironically complemented by details. And this evokes emotion. For instance, the floor features a Persian-style carpet: it seems to have “fallen out” from a completely different reality, creating visual intrigue and a warm, almost homey mood in the welcome zone. This carpet isn’t about tradition but about stylish provocation that immediately sets the tone for the entire space. The kitchen is a full-fledged relaxation zone that resembles a stylish urban café more than a classic office lunch corner. The sculptural island table features a concrete construction with a soft, wave-like curve. It brings a sense of mass, stability, and expression to the minimalist interior. The lighting composition of balls hanging from the ceiling enhances the overall office mood of energy, play, and sporting spirit.”
