At the heart of modern journalism is now the Pioneer Two, a visionary media ship operated by the renowned news portal The Pioneer. This outstanding ship is a symbol of creativity and innovation. On board, it offers space for discussions, production and participatory journalism. At the same time, it boasts an impressive interior design that inspires with the extraordinary designer carpets from OBJECT CARPET. What OBJECT CARPET and The Pioneer have in common is a shared passion for sustainable design. The Pioneer Two is therefore equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including an electric motor powered by lithium-ion batteries. During the construction of the ship, 27 tons of green steel were used, which significantly reduces the environmental impact and was awarded the German government's sustainability prize. OBJECT CARPET complements this vision with its sustainable carpets, which stand for quality, environmental friendliness and first-class design. The interior of the Pioneer Two offers a vibrant atmosphere that encourages creativity and innovation: Upon entering the ship, guests are greeted by a powerful play of colors and a modern ambience. The RUGX carpets from OBJECT CARPET in the KAAN quality in glossy velour set impressive accents that bring the room to life. The fitted carpets not only add visual highlights to the interior, but also offer a pleasant feel that invites you to linger and work. With an impressive length of 52 meters and a width of 8.20 meters, Pioneer Two offers various multifunctional spaces, such as the Grand Ballroom, a TV studio with a retractable ceiling, and digital areas for videos and films. The harmonious integration of design and functionality creates an inspiring working environment that promotes productive collaboration. The Pioneer Two is a shining example of the combination of technology and aesthetics that creates a platform for forward-thinking journalism.
