Aiming to preserve the nature of existing building, its original concrete ceiling is exposed in contrast to the new pure and minimalist aesthetic.

The furniture is created under the idea of “Furnitecture”, which reduces the amount of partitions and focused on the efficient use of space, making its partitions a storage.

We created separate workspaces to function as private work areas for each company without losing the sense of spaciousness and continuity.  Alternately to walls and constructive elements, which divides the rooms in a more permanent way, translucent cabinet partitions delimit and define the functional workspace. Separation is generated between working stations by the design of furniture to generate useful boundaries.
