Since 1999 we have been working on the topic of Vital-Office and also on suitable office furniture. Our many years’ work was rewarded with the award ”Best Feng Shui Design 2000“.
In addition to the forms, the question of the material in the meaning of Feng Shui occupied us a great deal.
Consequently, we considered how we could transfer the value and energy of a solid wood table- top to normal payable desks.
Essen und Trinken sind lebenswichtige Grundbedürfnisse des Menschen. Um gut zubereitete Speisen genießen zu können, bedarf es einer angenehmen Atmosphäre, denn das Auge isst bekanntlich mit.
Um die unterschiedlichen Bedürfnisse und Gefühle des Personals der Uniklinik zu berücksichtigen, werden entsprechend der Harmonielehre von Yin und Yang zwei verschieden farbig gestaltete Essenausgaben angeboten: Die eine in warmen gelben, die andere in etwas kühleren grünen Farbtönen.
Diese Farben korrespondieren mit der Farbgebung des Speisesaals. Die seitlichen Rahmen der Durchgänge und je 2 Mittelstützen sind in den entsprechenden Farbtönen gehalten. Weiterführend setzt sich das Farbspiel in den Kunstobjekten, Wandbild, Mobile und Vorhangmotiven fort.
Nowadays, almost everyone is familiar with the concept of Feng Shui. Only almost everyone understands something different by it. Almost everyone has heard or learned something different.
What is behind it and how do we deal with it? Different alternatively-orientated healing models and an integral way of thinking come together under the Feng Shui concept. It is therefore difficult to talk about Feng Shui as long as everyone understands something different by it. The question is: “What is someone looking for, if he is interested in Feng Shui?”
Feng Shui literally means Wind and Water. What is your perception?
Like a health-orientated therapeutic measure Feng Shui acts on the employees in a psychological way through the room design. The Feng Shui principle can therefore be defined as follows:
The resulting room design is a static photograph of our self. This in turn reacts and conveys to our psyche, for example, familiar and supposed security.
The environment becomes a medium of self programming.
However, time is flowing as well as the changes in our society, in our thinking and the way in which we express ourselves.
Yin and Yang is the basis of Feng Shui teaching. The polarity of Yin to Yang is, for example, subdivided in the trigrams and hexagrams in finer quality stages. The meanings and attributions are described in the old Chinese I Ging (Book of Changes).
The Yin Yang symbol, however, basically represents the dynamics of the eternal processes of change (birth - growth – maturity – blossom – seeds – death ...).
The constant flux (change), and the movement are best represented in the symbol.
Qi is the basic energy for all life. Effects of the vital energy Qi are, for example: vitality, capability, concentration, intuition, creativity, defence capacity of the immune system, disassociation capacity with respect to psychically weakening external factors, tolerance of stress and the state of mind.
A distinction is made between “Body-Qi”, the Qi concept of traditional Chinese medicine and the space and landscape Qi, which is directed by Feng Shui techniques:
At the start of the 20th century with the findings of the Theory of Relativity and Quantum Physics, Modern Physics did away with the fixed Newton conception of the world. Matter is no longer regarded as static and passive, but as a dynamic active “bundle of energy” which is in a state of constant flux. The traditional concepts of time and space, of isolated objects, and of cause and effect have lost their importance.
In modern Physics the universe is a dynamic indivisible whole which always necessarily also includes the observer.

Die Vital-Office GmbH, Spezialist für Bürooptimierung, präsentierte ihr ganzheitliches Konzept gesunder Bürowelten am 20. Februar bei der “4th International Conference on Scientific Feng Shui & Build Environment” an der City University von Hongkong. Geschäftsführer Peter Jordan zeigte dabei im Vortrag „Tuning fürs Büro“, wie Büros mit Hilfe der Feng-Shui-Philosophie optimiert werden können.
Vital-Office hat es sich zum Ziel gesetzt, Büroräume mit Leben zu erfüllen. Dafür setzt das Unternehmen auf eine Kombination aus ergonomischer Büroplanung und Möbeldesign, moderner Baubiologie und Feng Shui als traditionelle Art leistungsfördernder Raumgestaltung. Feng Shui wird schon längst nicht mehr als asiatische „Hokuspokus-Philosophie“ belächelt, sondern hat Einzug in die moderne Architektur und Raumplanung gehalten. Deshalb setzt sich das „Asian Institute of Intelligent Buildings“ (AIIB) und das „Department of Building & Construction“ der Hongkonger City University jetzt wissenschaftlich damit auseinander. Namhafte Referenten aus der ganzen Welt sind zur „4th International Conference on Scientific Feng Shui & Build Environment” gekommen. Auch Vital-Office-Gründer Peter Jordan hat zum Thema „Feng Shui als Tuning fürs Büro“ referiert.
Vital-Office setzt bei der Konzipierung von Büroumgebungen auf die positiven psychologischen und ergonomischen Wirkungen von Feng Shui. Das Unternehmen stellt dabei aber Inspiration und Kreativität in den Vordergrund: So etwa in einer zur Bewegung inspirierenden Büroplanung, vergleichbar mit dem Yin und Yang – Symbol für ständige Dynamik und Veränderung. Die von Vital-Office entwickelten organisch-geometrischen Strukturen – ob beim einzelnen Schreibtisch oder im gesamten Büroraum – assoziieren Fülle und Freiraum innerhalb einer „Raum gebenden“ Ordnung. Die beabsichtigten Folgen: Kreative Innovationen und Geschäftserfolg.
„Ich bin stolz, unser Vital-Office-Bürokonzept bei der ‚4th International Conference on Scientific Feng Shui & Build Environment’ neben anderen hochkarätigen und internationalen Praktikern und Wissenschaftlern präsentieren zu können“, sagt Peter Jordan. Für den Unternehmensgründer, der regelmäßig auf Veranstaltungen wie etwa der „Conscious Design Conference“ in New York spricht, ist die Teilnahme an der Konferenz in Hongkong der vorläufige Höhepunkt seiner Vortragsreihen. Jordan zeigte in seinem Vortrag, welche Vorteile organisch konzipierte Bürowelten für die Inspiration der Mitarbeiter, deren Kreativität und Vitalität und letztlich für die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit des gesamten Unternehmens haben.
Highly sorbent, flexible vitAcoustic sound absorbers as blinds for roller shutter cabinets cost-effectively transform barriers into highly effective broadband absorbers. Following the principle of microperforation, the textile vitAcoustic panels combined with a cavity (cabinet interior) develop a nearly linear broadband absorption, especially in language-relevant areas. The vitAcoustic roller shutters, which are available in up to 50 colors, are generally cheaper than comparable PVC shutters.
Each conference room is a representation of distinctive style and vision utilizing systems from the Circon Executive Product Line. Size, form and material/composition are developed according to individual customer needs and demands.
Various table styles are possible. Elliptical, Oval and Boat-form with elliptical feet sections can be realized in chrome, aluriffel or painted. All table sizes are feasible. The Oval-Office Project in Hamburg is a successful example where an oval 11,6 m- long table veneered in Swiss pear tree was designed to accomodate 38 persons in their executive suite conference room.
Hervorragende Dämmeigenschaften sowohl diffusionsoffene Wärmedämmung und A-Klasse Schall Absorption sind hier zu einem Doppelnutzen kombiniert. Dazu kommt die optisch schöne und hochwertige dekorative Gestaltung mit 19 verschiedenen Farben und vielen eingravierten Texturen. Darüber hinaus kann auch eine individuelle Bedruckung besondere Akzente setzten.
Wahlweise mit Holzfaser Dämmplatten oder absolut emissionsfreien PET Dämmplatten im Verbund mit dekorativer vitAcoustic Fliesenplatte.
Die Fertigung erfolgt auf Maß, so dass vor Ort kein Zuschnitt notwendig ist und daher auch kein Dreck vor Ort entsteht. Damit ist auch eine schnelle Verlegung, bzw. Montage gewährleistet.
Fragrant real hay, hay flowers and mosses applied directly to vitAcoustic absorber plates. Another versatile way of experiencing real natural products with all senses (seeing, touching, smelling). The special patented preservation and coating method opens up completely new design options. And the vitAcoustic natural-coated absorber plates can be used in all vitAcoustic applications, such as 3d frames, acoustic roller shutter cabinets, panel curtains for room division and flexible partitions and partitions. Made to measure: natural elements transparent or semi-transparent on colored vitAcoustic absorber plates. Design your individual acoustic nature picture with the 19 vitAcoustic colors and real hay, hay flowers and moss. You can choose between opaque and transparent. For projects, we also offer individual adjustments, eg semi-transparent. Very individual ideas can be implemented by coating the panels with various genuine natural materials such as hay, hay flowers and moss.
An echo makes the use of the festival hall of the youth welfare Waldhaus / Waldhausschule in Malsch almost impossible. The echo, or the sound reflections were so high that one could understand nothing more.
How should one get together and make music here? It was impossible!
But there is some help coming: the EnBW #MacherBus not only financially supports Waldhaus Jugendhilfe with the acquisition of new sound-absorbing elements, but the EnBW makers also undertake the attachment of the elements. With the new room acoustics measure the children of the Waldhausschule can use the hall again in peace and quiet.
Vital-Office also supported this project, supplied the vitAcoustic Frames for optimum sound absorption and led the assembly.
