Today, the office as a working environment faces a decisive challenge: it has to keep up with the appeal and atmosphere of "third places" such as restaurants, cafés, libraries, gardens and squares. The solution for companies is to create spaces that are not only functional, but also invite people to linger and feel at ease. The se:café team table is such a place - a meeting point that brings the feeling of home into the office and at the same time optimally combines socialising and working.

The different archetypes of office cafés and their special features

In modern work environments, office cafés have evolved into hybrid spaces that go beyond traditional break areas, where they support a variety of work and relaxation modes. While break rooms are traditionally designed for short periods of relaxation and offer functional facilities such as coffee machines and tables, office cafés create an atmosphere that specifically aims to promote productivity, creativity and social interaction.

At their core, office cafés offer an enhanced experience where both work and relaxation can co-exist harmoniously. They offer far more flexibility and different environments tailored to a variety of working styles and needs.
