IBM Cafeteria - GBC Building
About this project
A workplace social space designed to reduce friction in the daily office routine and support more natural interaction between teams. The IBM Cafeteria brings together informal seating, pause areas, and clearer functional zones in a setting that feels useful, not incidental.
What kind of context it solves
A food-service project integrated into a corporate environment, where the space needed to support high volume, fast pace, and a better day-to-day experience for the team.
What it changes in practice
It improves circulation clarity and makes everyday interaction more fluid, so the space better supports breaks, social interaction, and efficiency.
What it clarifies before the next step
It shows how a corporate cafeteria should not be treated only as a serving area, but as part of the broader team experience and workplace culture.
