World’s first 3D office opens – interior design by Bene

The world’s first ever office building produced using a 3D printing process was opened at a glamourous ceremony yesterday evening in Dubai in the presence of about 50 invited guests and partners. Bene was responsible for the interior design and concept development at the “Office of the Future”. The international office furniture expert furnished the building at the invitation of the Dubai government, with innovative furniture and a futuristic innovation area, the BENE IDEA LAB.

Inspiration is three-dimensional: Welcome to the future.

It took only 17 days to build the Office of the Future. In this period, no concrete needed to be mixed, and not a single wood chip fell to the ground. The building was printed with a 6 meter high and 46 meter long 3-D printer. Fully functioning and equipped with electricity, water, telecommunications and air conditioning, it is the first office in the world to be built in this manner.

“The idea of 3-D printing buildings was once a dream, but today it has become a reality. With the world’s first 3-D office, and a sophisticated and fully functioning building, we have created a milestone in the construction and real estate sectors.”

His Excellency Mohammad Al Gergawi, Minister of Cabinet Affairs,chairman of the National Innovation Committee VAE for Innovation

Professionalism under palm trees.

The conference room was equipped with FILO and AL, modern furnishing systems which ensure a pleasant business environment. PARCS Dock-in Bays allow for privacy and focused work. The Office of the Future will soon be flanked by the no less ambitious Museum of the Future — a forge for ideas, innovations and inspiration. The future, it appears, is already here. And we at Bene are proud to be part of it.
