Summary
In the middle of the preparations for this year's workation in Tuscany, the editors of the business magazine brand eins approached us with a key topic that speaks to us more than any other: appreciation - because an appreciative work culture has been at the heart of our strategic goals and our actions since Format D was founded 19 years ago.

In the middle of the preparations for this year's workation in Tuscany, the editors of the business magazine brand eins approached us with a key topic that speaks to us more than any other: appreciation - because an appreciative work culture has been at the heart of our strategic goals and our actions since Format D was founded 18 years ago. How does Format D manage to create a working culture in which values such as trust, professionalism and flexibility are tangible for everyone and in which working simply feels special? what does fun have to do with quality, success and innovative projects? To find out and to be part of our team, journalist Hannes M. Kneissler and photographer Diambra Mariani visited us in Tuscany for three days to get their impressions.

 

The result is a colourful article about our working atmosphere and our productive work at eye level in a very special environment. Format D in a very personal close-up - including behind the scenes - is precisely the core we are proud of, which we have built up here over the last 18 years with a strong focus on freedom, transparency, responsibility and passion. It makes us all the happier that we are able to reach and inspire others with this ‘valuable’ way of thinking! As an add-on, there are a few more insights in the brand eins podcast with Christian in conversation, which can be listened to on Spotify and detektor.fm under the title ‘Die Firma als Paradies’.

Culture Design
Culture Design - our key to successful work! Let's work in the countryside again’ is our motto every few months. Our WOOODAYs are part of our corporate culture, where we regularly put our employees front and centre. We believe that culture design must become bolder and more human in the modern working world. A plea.

PAGE: Fast and efficient - Design Sprints
The May issue of PAGE, the creative industry magazine, focuses on different design methods and processes. As we pursue a very intensive and unique approach with our key sprint, our strategist Alina and our UX/UI designer Victoria were interviewed by author Nina Kirst about our approach in this creative and exciting project phase. For the past two years, we have been working in an interdisciplinary team for five days to develop the strategy and concept in the form of a low-fi prototype for a new product. Each day is meticulously planned in order to give the creative chaos a clear order and structure and to keep the core objective in view at all times. Alina and Victoria describe our process in the key sprint based on the development of a web app for the Goetz Collection, which has been in use at the Munich City Museum since the end of April.
