Ageas
Ageas is a multinational insurance company with around 45,000 employees worldwide. In other words: a big deal. 5,000m² headquarters in the prestigious Manhattan building, located in the heart of Brussels became our biggest office gig to date.
There were three key design elements to create this new space: a layout that supports different working styles, the incorporation of their company culture into both the design and day-to-day operations, and an inviting atmosphere that encourages employees to trade in their home office comfort for the workplace.

The Cube isn’t just for work; it’s primarily a social hub. It serves as a space for gathering, hosting events, and grabbing coffee. The idea was to create a place where people naturally come together and connect.

This sense of connection is amplified by the new staircase we installed, replacing the old narrow spiral stairs with a wider, open one. The staircase invites employees from different floors to cross paths as they head to meetings or grab a coffee in The Cube, turning it into a true meeting point.

As Hans De Cuyper, Ageas’ CEO, emphasized, “Positive energy and motivation work like a battery—it has to be charged.” The Cube embodies that idea, providing a space where people can connect, recharge, and be inspired. It plays a central role in Ageas’ vision for a workplace that fosters collaboration and growth.

The CEO of Ageas is a lover of vintage furniture and art, and so are we at Creneau. We were thrilled to integrate both into the Brussels headquarters. We handpicked unique vintage pieces and placed them in key areas of the office, creating a lively contrast between old and new in the interior.
