Corporate office design, modern office interiors and plaza-floor interior architecture — Kaya + Partners, one of Ankara's leading interior design studios. We deliver projects from 100 m² to 5,000 m² in Söğütözü, Çukurambar, Ostim and other business districts.
A modern office is not just a workspace; it's a tool that tells the brand's values, team culture and future vision through space. Right office interiors directly affect team motivation, client perception and daily productivity. In office projects, Kaya + Partners listens to the brand first, then designs the space.
Ankara's office stock is concentrated in specific districts. Each has its own building typology and user profile.
From small professional offices to large corporate floor design — the same rigour at every scale.
Hybrid working models, open-cellular office balance, biophilic design, multi-use areas — these are leading approaches in modern office interiors. Kaya + Partners balances these against the brand's unique needs.
Good office design begins not with the floor area but with the question of who will work in it, how, and for how long. If, of two offices of the same size, one houses a software team focused at their desks all day and the other a sales team constantly out in the field, their plans will look nothing alike. That is why the first step in office interior design is a needs analysis: collaboration between departments, meeting frequency, conversations that require confidentiality, visitor traffic, average desk occupancy and the growth expected in the coming period. This data is gathered through short interviews with team leads and by observing the current office. The result is a brief that shows how many fixed desks, how many shared workstations, how many meeting rooms and how much social space are needed. An office built on this brief protects the company from the cost of leasing surplus square metres, or of meeting rooms that prove inadequate within a few months. We build the design on this brief and place the growth scenario into the plan from day one.
There is no single right answer between an open-plan and a cellular office; the right answer is to set the ratio between them according to the focus and collaboration needs of the work being done. Open-plan offices speed up communication, use floor area efficiently and increase visibility between teams; but uncontrolled noise and constant interruptions reduce productivity in work that demands concentration. Cellular offices provide privacy and focus, but they can cut the team off from one another and use space more expensively. The model that works for most offices today is a mix of the two: open work areas, single-person booths for phone calls, small meeting rooms for a few people, and enclosed rooms for managers and units that require confidentiality. In building this mix, acoustic separation, preserving daylight with glass partitions and keeping noisy and quiet areas apart on the plan are critical decisions. In office interior design we set this balance team by team; we never place vocal units such as sales and customer service in the same acoustic zone as focus-driven units such as analysis and design.
In the office, ergonomics is a design decision that directly determines how tired an employee feels at the end of the day. Adjustable chairs and desks are the baseline; height-adjustable desks let people alternate between standing and sitting. But ergonomics does not end with furniture. The position of the screen relative to the window affects glare, the colour temperature of the lighting affects eye strain, and the location of cable trays affects order and safety. Placing desks perpendicular to the windows makes the most of daylight while reducing screen reflections; building general lighting with glare-free fixtures that can be dimmed according to daylight delivers both comfort and energy savings. Thermal comfort is part of ergonomics too: air-conditioning that does not blow directly onto desks, controlling summer sun at desks near a glass façade, and a separate climate zone for meeting rooms are decisions that look small but are felt all day long. On office projects we select furniture together with the lighting, HVAC and power layout, so an ergonomic chair is never wasted at a badly placed desk.
In offices where hybrid working has become the norm, a meeting room is no longer just a table and a screen; it needs to create an equal experience for the people in the room and the colleagues joining remotely. That equality depends on a camera positioned at an angle that sees everyone's face, microphones that pick up sound clearly from every point of the table, and a room that does not echo. A meeting room surrounded by hard glass and concrete surfaces sends muffled sound to the other side even with the best equipment. That is why, in office interior design, acoustic panels, carpet or an acoustic ceiling and the right lighting matter as much as the meeting technology itself: you need light that illuminates faces without shadows and does not cause glare on screens. On the infrastructure side, in-desk or floor sockets, cable routes, reinforcement of walls that carry screens and wireless presentation systems are planned from the start. In a hybrid set-up the number of fixed desks may fall; in return, bookable workstations, personal lockers and single-person call booths come to the fore. We coordinate technology procurement with your IT team or the integrator of your choice.
Office materials face far heavier use than residential ones, so the selection criteria are not just appearance but ease of maintenance and service life. Carpet tiles are an advantage in busy corridors because worn sections can be replaced piece by piece; scratch-resistant surfaces on work desks, stain-resistant worktops in kitchens and social areas, and washable paints on walls are preferred. Sustainability also largely starts with this durability: a surface that has to be replaced after a short time is a burden on both the environment and the budget. Glass partitions that carry daylight deeper inside, lighting with occupancy and daylight sensors, efficient climate zones and low-emission paints and adhesives improve both the office's operating costs and its indoor air quality. Where possible, refurbishing part of the existing furniture for use in the new office, or choosing partition systems that can be dismantled and reassembled, reduces waste at the next change. In office interior design we treat sustainability not as a label but as a long-term operational decision.
When moving to a new office, the best time to talk to an interior architect is before the lease is signed. A quick layout study on a candidate space — a test fit — shows whether the team will really fit in that area, whether the column grid and façade arrangement allow for workstations, and whether enough interior space remains for meeting rooms. When deciding between two plaza floors in Söğütözü or Çukurambar, this study offers a far more reliable comparison than square metres on paper. Once the lease decision is made, the move schedule is built backwards: the exit date from the current office, the building management's works rules, furniture and technology delivery times and the commissioning of the IT infrastructure all go into the same plan. When refurbishing an existing office, it is possible to carry out the work floor by floor or section by section, to move noisy work outside office hours and to relocate the team temporarily to another area. Our goal is for moving week not to be a lost week for the company; when the team sits down at their desks on Monday morning, the internet, printers and meeting rooms should all be working.
Office projects take 4–10 weeks of design and 8–16 weeks of execution. In turnkey processes you work with a single point of contact; we manage design, fabrication and assembly coordination.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no single right answer; productivity depends on the focus and collaboration needs of the work being done. For most teams the best result is a mix of open work areas, single-person call booths, small meeting rooms and enclosed rooms for units that require confidentiality. We set this ratio based on a needs analysis.
Yes, if possible. A layout study (test fit) on a candidate space shows, before the lease is signed, whether the team fits in the area, whether the column and façade arrangement suits the desks and whether enough meeting space remains.
As the number of fixed desks falls, bookable workstations, personal lockers, single-person booths and meeting rooms suited to remote participation come to the fore. In meeting rooms we plan camera angle, microphone coverage, acoustics and facial lighting together.
